Aussie Kindies Early Learning
Aussie Kindies is a high-quality provider of childcare where every child experiences the joy of learning in a caring community. Our Lifelong Learning Curriculum draws on current research, evidence informed practices and specific programs in each age groups such as The Circle of Security in our babies’ rooms, Abecedarian Language Priority for our Toddlers and Inquiry Based Learning Projects for older children.
We’re experts at knowing how kids develop and grow, and we nurture them through these vital and precious early stages of their lives. Through these important early years children change so quickly - they are constantly absorbing new information and expanding their skill set. We gently encourage and guide them to explore their own potential. Our philosophy, which combines play-based learning and intentional teaching, allows children to gravitate towards their own interests, creating meaningful experiences that you’ll all be able to treasure.

Toddler Childcare
Our centre provides a stimulating and fun environment to enhance your child’s learning in their early years. Learning starts long before school, with the first five years of a child’s life being crucial to laying the foundations for their ability to learn throughout their later years.
Preschool
Preparing for primary school is one of the most important times in a child’s life. Our Lifelong Learning Curriculum School Readiness program stimulates young minds, builds confidence, resilience and positive self-image, and supports children’s transition to school.
Lifelong Learning Curriculum
The Lifelong Learning Curriculum is Affinity Education’s research-based curriculum for early childhood education, based on the belief that learning and development occurs most successfully when supported by nurturing and engaged educators, in partnership with families and communities. It draws on the best teaching and learning strategies from Montessori and Reggio Emilia combined with modern, evidence-based approaches including Abecedarian and Circle of Security.
The Lifelong Learning Curriculum is play-based and specifically designed to cater for all ages from birth to school age.
Educational programs, inspired by four key intentions, thoughtfully and individually facilitate each child’s learning.
