About Nido Early School Kingsbury

  • Unleash curiosity with diverse activities like cooking, dance, languages, music, sports, yoga, and more.
  • Immerse children in Reggio Emilia-inspired spaces, fostering hands-on sensory experiences.
  • Prioritise body and mind nourishment with exclusive, sugar-free wholefood menus prepared in on-site kitchens.

Catering to children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, Nido Early School offers a warm and nurturing learning environment. Following a Reggio Emilia inspired approach, the educators engage the children in fun, play-based learning. They deliver an innovative program that helps children to develop the skills they’ll need to successfully transition to primary school. 

The light-filled interiors are bright and inspiring, drawing the children into their learning. The rooms are well resourced with calming, natural resources, with each room catering to different learning styles and offering ample space for both individual play and group activities. 

Outdoors, the children are free to explore the incredible play area and immerse themselves in nature. While they play, they develop their gross motor and physical skills and also work on their social skills, such as sharing and communication. The children are encouraged to use their imagination and create their own adventures while they play. 

Conveniently located close to public transport, the service also offers ample parking on site to help with drop off and pick up. 

We recognise the importance of selecting the right Early School and are committed to nurturing a love for lifelong learning.

Get To Know Us

Safety

Safety

Safety matters every day.
Every day, safety comes first at Nido. Across all our early schools, we work tirelessly to uphold the highest standards in safety. This commitment underpins every decision we make and every interaction we have with children and families.

We have embedded the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations across all our practices to ensure safe behaviours, environments, and accountability are part of everything we do.

Strong supervision and ongoing training
All Educators participate in an 8-week active supervision program, along with regular training and safety alerts. This ensures teams are vigilant, responsive, and prepared for every situation.

Safe design, technology and electronic devices
Our early school layouts are designed for maximum visibility and supervision. CCTV is installed externally at most of our early schools to enhance security. For the protection of all children, the use of personal devices to take photos or videos of children is prohibited for all Nido team members, students, volunteers, and visitors.

Rigorous recruitment and compliance
Our recruitment process includes enhanced screening, comprehensive reference checks, and clear expectations around child safety. Working with Children Checks are strictly managed and continuously monitored.

Professional learning and guidance
Educators receive regular training through leading Registered Training Organisations. Policies and procedures are regularly reviewed and updated to reflect current legislation and best practice, ensuring everyone understands the behaviours and standards expected.

Comprehensive health and safety
We maintain secure single-point entry systems, and our staff are trained in first aid, asthma, anaphylaxis care, and food safety. We follow strict medication management protocols, a Cancer Council-accredited Sun Smart policy, and promote hygiene through engaging activities. Our schools take allergies seriously, including nut awareness, to help keep every child safe and included at mealtimes. Any incidents are documented and promptly communicated with families.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

Nido Early School understands that no one knows a child like their family. The service actively engages with parents and family members to ensure children have the very best care. 

The team works with family members at enrolment and also regularly seeks updates on children’s schedules and current interests. This helps them to develop tailored programs that meet individual educational, physical, cultural and emotional needs.

Parents are welcome to chat with staff at drop off and pick up, and to contact the team at any stage via phone, email or the service’s ‘Playground’ App. The service regularly sends updates on children’s progress, and photos and videos of children during play and learning activities. 

With an ‘open door policy’, parents are welcome to join in activities and events, and to share breakfast with children at the popular breaky bar.

About the curriculum

About the curriculum

The curriculum at Nido Early School is inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach and aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework. Designed to support the children in the early years and as they prepare for the transition to school, the curriculum is play-based and engaging.

The curriculum is delivered in three stages:

Nursery (6 weeks to 18 months)

In the nursery, the children are nurtured as they develop early connections with their educators. They read stories, play and explore the world around them.

The children start to develop their sense of identity and understand that they are part of a broader community. They start to explore their feelings and emotions and also try new things. Developing early communication skills, both verbal and non-verbal is also a big focus for the children in this age group.

Toddlers (18 months to 3 years)

The educators encourage the toddlers to develop their independence and autonomy. They have opportunities to build their social skills and early friendships while also learning to regulate their emotions.

As the children take safe risks in their learning, the educators also encourage their problem solving skills. Self-expression and communication are also important.

Kindergarten (3 years to school)

The Kindergarten curriculum helps to prepare the children for the big transition to big school. The children have a strong sense of self and understand their role in the community. They participate in peer activities and understand their own emotions. 

They are always questioning how things work and practising their verbal and listening skills as strong communicators. 

Meet the team

Couldn’t be happier with Nido Early School Kingsbury. From day one, the staff have been welcoming, patient and genuinely invested in the kids. You can tell they really care, not just about routines and programs, but about how each child is actually feeling. Our son had a rough start settling in, but the educators took the time to comfort him, give him extra attention and work at his pace instead of forcing it. That approach made all the difference. As a parent, it’s reassuring knowing your child is in a place where they’re listened to, supported and cared for properly. Highly recommend Nido Kingsbury to anyone looking for a daycare that truly puts children first.

Response from the owner 23 Jan 2026

Thank you, Jace, for your lovely words. We're so grateful to hear about your positive experience and the special care shown to your son. It’s a privilege to create a nurturing environment where children feel supported and valued.

We have had a wonderful experience with Nido Early School Kingsbury. The educators genuinely care about both the children and the parents, and this really shows in everything they do. They always prioritise my child’s happiness and comfort and are willing to change things up when he is having a tough day, which makes such a difference for our family. I enrolled my 14-month-old velcro baby, and the transition was not easy at first, he screamed the place down for the first few weeks. Despite this, the team have been incredibly patient, kind and understanding, and have gone above and beyond to make sure my son feels safe and comfortable by giving him extra attention and reassurance until he eventually settled in. It is clear that Nido Kingsbury truly want the children to succeed and feel secure, whilst also instilling the confidence in parents that their child is being well looked after. I’m so grateful for the care, compassion and effort the educators and the team have shown to my child and our family, and I highly recommend Nido Kingsbury to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive early learning environment.

I’m very grateful with the care that my daughter has been receiving at Nido Kingsbury. My daughter has been attending this childcare for two years and she always loved to go there and that means a lot of me. The space is always clean with good outdoor facilities for the kids to explore. Teachers are wonderful and caring people. They also serve a delicious and nutritional food prepared for the chef. Thank you Nido for being taken such a great care of our daughter.
