Child Care & Early Education for Children Aged 0-5 Years

Kids Academy Early Learning Centres

Here at Kids Academy we aim to inspire a love of lifelong learning in children, through our fun, engaging child care and early education service for children aged 0-5 years.

Our qualified educators and teachers are trained in the Lifelong Learning Curriculum, and are experts at understanding how children grow and develop. We nurture children through these precious early stages of their lives in a caring, fun environment, encouraging them to gravitate towards their interests, create meaningful experiences, try new things and develop strong bonds and friendships along the way.

At Kids Academy, our days feature lots of play-based and intentional teaching experiences, messy sensory play activities, plenty of fun in the vibrant outdoor playground, and of course the opportunity to rest and sleep.

Each centre features an onsite cook who prepares fresh, healthy, nutritionally balanced meals for the children and babies every day. They love to involve the children in meal preparation and healthy food education, and the children love it too! Care is made to ensure children's daily nutritional needs, and any individual cultural and dietary requirements are met.

Kids Academy is proudly owned and operated by Affinity Education Group, the leading provider of early education and child care in Australia. We are driven by our professional goals and values and are committed to ensuring we provide the best early childhood experience for you and your children. Our mission is to inspire and nurture children to reach their full potential, and help them gravitate towards a lifetime of loving to learn.

Outdoor Play Area

Each Kids Academy Early Learning Centre features an exciting outdoor play area for children to explore, build confidence, and develop friendships.

Outdoor play is an essential experience for young children as it plays a vital role in their physical, cognitive, social and emotional development.

The outdoor play area is different at each Kids Academy centre, but all include a large playground, cubby house, sandpit and space to run, jump, balance and climb. It's bright, colourful, and kids love it!

Meals Prepared Onsite

Each day our Kids Academy Centre Cooks prepare a wide variety of nutritious meals and purees onsite for the children and babies in our centres, taking the time to involve the children in meal preparation and healthy food education.

Creativity is essential when satisfying a number of young food critics every day, as is care, to ensure children's daily nutritional needs, and any individual cultural or dietary requirements are being met.
