Rachel’s Place has truly become part of our family story. From the very first day we walked in, we felt the warmth, care, and sense of belonging that makes this place so special. Valeria didn’t just attend kindergarten here — she grew here. The educators took the time to really know her, support her feelings, encourage her curiosity, and help her build confidence and independence. Watching her walk in happily each morning and come home full of stories, pride, and excitement has been one of the most beautiful parts of our days as parents. Some of her happiest memories are from Forest Kindy — exploring nature, getting muddy, learning through play, and feeling safe enough to try new things. Rachel’s Place gave Valeria not only learning, but joy, security, and a love of discovery. Thank you from our hearts to the wonderful teachers and the entire Rachel’s Place community for caring for Valeria as if she were your own. The memories and foundations you’ve given her will stay with her for life, and we will always be deeply grateful.

We had our son in for 1 year and in that time he thrived and learnt so much - it was literally his 2nd home. The team set him up brilliantly to transition into prep - for example, he learnt how to pack and manage his own lunch. Plus taking them out to forest kindy each week was fantastic - it helped him get in touch with nature.

Rachel’s Place is a nurturing and welcoming environment where children truly flourish. The caring educators foster curiosity, independence, and emotional growth through a play-based, and an exceptional child-led program. Forest Kindy was the best that could happened to our daughter, offering children safe opportunities for exploration, risk-taking, and joyful learning.

About Rachel's Place

Rachel’s Place Childcare and Kindergarten is a warm and inviting early learning community for children aged 2 to 5 years. Our homelike environment reflects our belief in attachment theory—that secure, trusting relationships form the foundation for all learning. Educators work closely with each child, nurturing emotional wellbeing, supporting self-regulation, and creating reciprocal, respectful relationships that help children feel safe to explore, express, and grow.

Learning at Rachel’s Place is guided by the interests of the children, allowing them to lead their own discoveries through play. Our mixed-age, family-style groupings encourage empathy, cooperation, and leadership, while our open-ended environments invite curiosity, imagination, and problem-solving. Indoors, children can self-select from open-ended resources that inspire creativity and inquiry—whether it’s imaginative play in the home corner, light and shadow exploration in our light room, or self-directed art in our studio.

Outdoors, our natural backyard and Forest School program immerse children in nature, encouraging adventurous play, environmental care, and resilience. Loose parts, woodwork, and tools inspire creativity and confidence, while quiet nooks offer space for reflection. We advocate for freedom, movement, and the joy of outdoor learning, fostering a deep connection with the environment and sustainable practices from a young age.

Our dedicated team of educators and specialists offer a holistic curriculum that includes art, movement, and yoga each week, ensuring that every child’s physical, social, emotional, and cognitive needs are supported. Conveniently located with a bus stop at the door and street parking nearby, Rachel’s Place welcomes you to visit and experience our caring, community-oriented centre where children are free to learn, play, and belong.
