About Community Kids Haven Early Learning Centre Redan

Community Kids Haven Redan is a childcare and early learning centre situated in-between the Ballarat and Delacombe area,  on Skipton St. Our care and teaching approach incorporates the Reggio Emilia philosophy. At the core of this philosophy is an assumption that children form their own personality during the early years of development and that they are endowed with "a hundred languages", through which they can express their ideas.  Additionally, we have a strong focus on natural elements and focus on education based around what the child displays interest in to ensure optimum engagement and advancements in their educational voyage in their early learning journey.

Community Kids Haven Redan has a large focus on a state-of-the-art outdoor learning environments and architecturally designed yards. Our meals are prepared freshly daily with a qualified cook in our centre kitchen.

  • Nursery: 6 weeks – 2 years
  • Toddler: 2 years – 3 years
  • Pre Kinder: 3 – 4 years (3 Year Kindergarten offered for children in Redan, Ballarat and surrounding suburbs.)
  • Kindergarten 4 – 5 years

Educators and Management of CKH endeavour to provide a:

  • Friendly environment that is safe and inviting for children, families and educators;
  • Stimulating program that is accessible to all children and whilst being based on individual strengths also provides challenges to promote their development;
  • Working environment that encourages educators to be creative and continue their learning process through professional development and mentoring from other educators.

About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to inspire children aged six weeks to six years, rooted in the Reggio Emilia philosophy and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). We emphasise learning through play, allowing children to explore their interests through hands-on, child-led activities that build independence and critical thinking. Our program includes music to enhance creativity, sports through the Fit Kids Haven initiative for physical development, and gardening with natural materials like herbs and vegetables which promotes environmental awareness. Outdoor play in our state-of-the-art play spaces and sensory gardens develops a connection to nature and aides creative play. Delivered by qualified educators, our play-based approach supports literacy, numeracy, and school readiness, tailored to each child’s needs in a safe and nurturing environment.

A wonderful environment for our son from when he first started attending aged 8 months old. Carren and the team are all fantastic and the facilities are all first rate. We are sad to be leaving (solely for geographical reasons!) Thanks again, Dan

We have recently enrolled our son at kids community haven, and they have been fantastic! Caring, friendly, attentive and amazing with our concerns around our son’s pre-maturity and development! There has been no rush to move our son up a class they are letting him learn and develop on his own with the support, for both him and us. It has been a Fantatstic experience and look forward to many more years ahead!

My child has been going to the centre for 2 years now and I have nothing to say but good things about the staff. They all genuinely care about the children. From an anxious mum who constantly wanted updates the communication between staff and parents is next level with photos, daily log and emailed communications updated often.

Community Kids Haven Redan have been absolutely amazing for our family. They offer an incredibly nurturing environment for our girls and are always friendly to talk to. They are good at handover at the end of the day and passing along messages of how their days went.<br>The programs they run and updates they provide are incredible. I receive messages from them each day with how their day was along with the cutest pictures of the girls engaged in activities.<br>You must book a tour as we absolutely recommend them.
