Children’s Garden is the most wonderful, magical childcare centre. I dropped my children off with confidence that they would be held in a safe loving environment with staff that have been there for years, and cared for them as I would. I could not recommend it more highly.

My review & this information is in response to your reply, as it seems you are not across all the right information. -If a place was not available, why do I have a letter of offer from you, why have you taken his personal docs (birth certificate & immunisation history) and why did I pay for his first weeks attendance? -The bond you mention has been discussed in emails with your reception, refer 05 and 10 June - perhaps check with your staff before writing about the bond. -I have been honest in all my dealings and seems you were ready to form prejudices as you have interestingly indicated in your mention of an 'application'. ALL children have a legal right to childcare regardless of what you may think/assume of them. -Lastly, you accepted my sons enrolment and had him attend 3 orientations, then cancelled 2 business days before he was due to begin.

Children’s Garden KinderCare has been a true blessing for our family. Our child has been attending for the past four years, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and support we’ve received. The teachers are dedicated and nurturing, they also create a safe and enriching environment where our child has truly thrived. The management team is incredibly supportive and always goes above and beyond to make families feel welcomed and heard. We feel very fortunate to have found such a wonderful place for our child to grow, learn, and be loved.

About Children's Garden Kindercare

OUR VISION

Childrens Garden Kindercare is committed to providing an alternative form of child care where the early years of childhood are protected and nurtured, into which children are welcomed with love and surrounded by warmth, wonder and wisdom. Our care will give the children the best start to develop a secure sense of personal wellbeing, a love for learning, individual confidence and empathy for others.

Kindergarten Program - two rooms with 20 places for 3-5 year olds - Monday to Friday: 8am � 5.30pm

Childcare: Ring o Rosie and Spring Star Rooms, two rooms with 20�places for under 3 year olds:� Monday � Friday: 7.30am � 6.30pm

Working towards a better planet, we use biodegradable bamboo nappies and wipes, which take only 2 years as opposed to 500 years of normal nappies to decompose. Bamboo fabric can be 100% biodegraded in soil by microorganisms and sunlight. The decomposition process does not cause any pollution to the environment.

All our meals are provided by the centre and are organic, biodynamic and vegetarian. We have gluten-free, sugar-free, and vegan options.

The programs are a rich combination of indoor and outdoor domestic/farm-like activities and free play woven together with intentional teaching or planned activities. In Ring-o-Rosie the program centres around a strong rhythm that includes indoor and outdoor play, meal times, singing, story time, simple art and crafts and sleep. We keep it calm and simple for our littlest ones.

In Spring Star children are learning quickly to run and climb and are given the opportunity to exercise their developing gross motor skills on excursions and through a greater variety of activities that may include baking, painting, gardening, crafts and longer stories and singing circle times.

In our Peppercorn and Fig Tree Kindergartens the program includes excursions further from the centre, more complicated verses, finger plays, stories, cooking, paper art, beeswax and clay work and longer time in free-play. Children acquire the basic foundations for all the social sciences, language, creative thinking, mathematics, music, arts, problem-solving and negotiation etc. in a play-based curriculum with educators dedicated to ongoing learning.
