Cleaning that meets the standards parents expect
UrbanEdge provides specialist contracted cleaning for childcare centres, early learning, kindergartens, long-daycare facilities and Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) across the Gold Coast. Childcare cleaning is held to a higher standard than ordinary commercial cleaning, for good reason. Tiny hands touch every surface, illness spreads fast, and your assessment and rating depends on environment cleanliness.
We work after-hours, every weeknight, so the centre opens at 6:30am to a freshly cleaned, sanitised, restocked environment. Our crew holds Working With Children Checks (QLD Working with Children Check), uses only child-safe chemicals, and follows NQF-aware cleaning protocols.

Why childcare directors hire us
Working With Children Check holders & vetted crew
Every team member who attends a childcare site holds a current Queensland Working With Children Check. National police-checked. Briefed on child-safety boundaries, no contact with children, no entry to occupied rooms, full ID badging.
Child-safe chemicals only
Low-VOC, fragrance-light, child-safe disinfectants. SDS folder maintained on site. We don't use chemicals that leave residue on surfaces children touch. Hospital-grade sanitation in nappy-change and bathroom areas only.
NQF assessment-ready cleaning logs
For centres preparing for NQF Assessment & Rating, we provide written cleaning logs and photo-backed service reports that demonstrate environment-cleaning compliance against Quality Area 2 (Children's Health and Safety) and Quality Area 3 (Physical Environment).
After-hours, never during operating hours
We're on-site only after the last child has been collected and before the first educator arrives. Cleaning is done overnight or in the early hours so it never overlaps with the children's day.
