My daughter has attended Kindy Patch Redhead in the Pippies room for the last six months and we highly recommend it. The educators are amazing! They are always smiling, they genuinely care about and love the kids. The communication has been great through the app with daily updates, as well as detailed reports personalized around her learning and development. The center is always clean and the kids spend plenty of time outdoors. My daughter adores her educators and loves going to daycare. Thanks Kindy Patch team!

About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

“Let the child be the scriptwriter, director and the actor in their own play” - Magda Gerber

Nursery Space: 6 weeks – 2 years

Learning starts from before birth, and our Educators have created a welcoming and nurturing nursery environment where each baby feels safe to explore and discover new things - through their senses, their communication and cues (body language, facial expression and sounds) and by experimenting. On any given day you can see the nursery children engaging in all types of play, water play, music time, story time and more. Every day provides a brand new, exciting adventure for our babies to support their development, learning and wellbeing!

Toddler Space: 2 - 3 years

Our teachers and educators encourage the children to learn through play to help enhance their sensory-motor development. This happens through carefully planned music, dance, games and reading experiences.

On any given day the Toddler children can be seen developing their numeracy by building a tower, sorting objects, pointing and identifying shapes and patterns and participating in counting songs and games.

Children in our toddler space are encouraged to participate in group play. Group play is important as it helps our toddlers develop important social skills such as, turn taking, developing self confidence and emotional self regulation. Our team helps children through talking, planning and role modelling.

Preschool Space: 3 – 6 years

Preschool is a unique time for learning with peers and developing skills for later learning including confidence and curiosity, important skills for starting school. Our play-based program encourages active engagement in learning and supports a range of positive developmental outcomes including resilience, independence, critical thinking and creativity.

The oral language supports literacy learning. A child’s oral language ability is the best predictor for later success in learning to read and write. Hearing the sounds within a language is the first critical step for all literacy learning. Our team supports our Preschool children's development by engaging in rich discussions, introducing new vocabulary as part of everyday conversations, as well as singing, playing games, and reading with the children daily.

Throughout the Preschool year, children use their language to share ideas, ask questions, express themselves, and connect with peers and adults in social settings.

Social-emotional skills, including the ability to self-regulate emotions, is supported through group learning environments. Our team supports each child’s social and emotional development by labelling and talking about emotions and supporting appropriate responses as together, they engage in new and challenging situations. Lastly, ensuring that all children are ready for the ‘big school’ by preparing them for all that ‘big school’ has to offer.

Health and Nutrition

Health and Nutrition

Our centre chef prepares and cooks healthy and nutritious meals daily, catering to the unique dietary requirements of every child. We believe that by encouraging active participation (such as growing their own fruit and vegetables, preparing, and finally cooking!) children learn to appreciate and understand the importance of healthy eating.

Our centre offers children nutrient-rich, unprocessed, and seasonal whole foods – created to delight the fussiest eaters.

Hi my name is Carley, and I am the Centre Manager here at Kindy Patch Redhead. I began my career in early childhood education and care in 2007. I hold a Diploma in Children’s Services.

I love being able to offer great quality care to so many young children and be able to provide loving, caring and educational support to children and their families. I live by the quote “Stay positive, work hard and make it happen!”.

All childcare centres, including our centre, use the foundation of play-based learning to guide our experiences every day. With access to a range of age-appropriate learning resources, trained educators, and new experiences among friends, we set children up to thrive in an environment that is dedicated to learning.

Children develop their curiosity, problem-solving, confidence and resilience at our centre, and we carefully plan play-based learning experiences around their interests and learning goals. Over time, you will see your child develop abilities such as language, motor movement, memory, concentration and social relationships all by partaking in these experiences – it’s a truly incredible journey to witness!

I am proud of the amazing, dedicated staff I get to work with every day and our natural homely feel that our centre offers.

Our team understands just how important your children are to you and we ensure we take our responsibilities seriously. Kindy Patch centres have extensive policies and procedures in place to assist our team in protecting children in our care.

Kindy Patch Redhead offers children a home away from home feel, we have dedicated staff who are committed to helping your child be the best that they can be! Our natural learning environments offer endless opportunities for learning and laughter.

We understand that starting at a new centre can be overwhelming and that is why from the very first enquiry, we make sure that we address all your questions one by one. We walk families through all the forms and administration that need to be done, this includes enrolment forms, Child Care Subsidy (CCS), explaining subsidies, government caps, centre schedules, our centre menu and more.

My son went to kindy patch redhead for 3 years from 2019-2021 and there’s been a lot of positive change over the years. Carley the centre manager was so helpful with everything and the staff were great with him he’s made great relationships with his educators and the other children. I feel very comfortable leaving my child there because I know he’s well looked after and experiences learning opportunities that I or another centre can’t give him.
