Wanslea is a not-for-profit, non-government agency providing services to children and families in Western Australia.
Established in 1943, our services are based on three outstanding principles:
- Evidence drives the development and delivery of our services, so you can be confident that what we do works.
- Where appropriate, we work in the family home, for learning and practice in a familiar, comfortable environment.
- We focus on people’s strengths, building on what people already know and can do.
We are engaged in four main areas of activity:
- Family Support
- Out of Home Care
- Child Care
- Community capacity building
Wanslea’s services are provided through Wanslea Family Services and Wanslea Early Learning and Development across metropolitan Perth, Peel, Great Southern and Goldfields/Esperance.
