Meet our Centre Manager
Hello, my name is Rachael and I have been in the education industry for over 30 years. I have an Associate Diploma in Social Science (child care) studies.
I am very passionate about the early education of children. I believe children learn so much in their first 5 years, and we need to be available to provide them with their learning needs as well as comfort and care when away from home. I believe all children should have the same opportunities in life so they can move forward to a bright future within their supportive community.
Our centre in Creswick is a fantastic choice for your child. We provide natural playgrounds, and a sustainability yard with plenty of space to move around out of the normal playground, allowing children to use their imagination, and experience caring for gardens, chickens and worm farms. We provide a play based curriculum using plenty of natural resources found right in our playgrounds. We have many native animals who regularly come to visit us, so we are able to learn first hand about each animal. Our friendly team of educators are caring, and we believe educators should always be with the children, engaged and teaching them important skills for later in life.
We look forward to meeting you at Aussie Kindies in Creswick.
How Much is Childcare Per Day?

You may also be eligible for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), which can significantly lower your daily costs. Many families are surprised by how affordable quality childcare can be with CCS. Use our simple CCS Calculator to instantly see your potential out-of-pocket costs and start planning today.

Exclusive Programs to Inspire and Prepare Your Child
At Aussie Kindies, we’re proud to provide a range of exclusive programs that make early education both exciting and meaningful. From Positive Living Skills and Big Thinkers STEM to Aussie Wildlife Champions and First Nations education, these enriching experiences spark curiosity and build confidence in every child.
With access to Reading Eggs and MathSeeds, your child will develop a love of reading and numeracy, while the Early Years Toolbox helps us personalise their learning journey to meet their unique needs.
These programs are designed to help your child thrive, preparing them for school and beyond in a caring and supportive childcare environment where they can grow, explore, and succeed.
Positive Living Skills
This program is designed to equip children with essential skills for mental and emotional wellbeing. It helps them develop healthy self esteem and positive relationships, plus gives them tools and strategies that will help in all aspects of their life. Endorsed by Beyond Blue.
Reading Eggs & MathSeeds
These fun, engaging technology-based games help children learn foundational reading, mathematics and problem solving skills. Families enroled in our School Readiness program receive full access to these programs (valued at $250) at no additional charge.
Big Thinkers STEM
Our Big Thinkers STEM program focuses on engaging children's interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. It covers topics like natural science, weather, physics, and biology using a learning-through-play and hands-on approach.
Early Years Toolbox
This app-based assessment tool for children aged 4-5 years is designed to accurately assesses their learning and development in areas such as numeracy, vocabulary, working memory, and aspects of self-regulation. This information in turn helps educators identify future intentional teaching opportunities.
Aussie Wildlife Champions
Developed in partnership with the Australian Wildlife Conservancy, this program aims to support young children build an understanding of our unique Australian animals and habitats, as well as foundational aspects of conservation.
First Nations Education
We have partnered with Wandana Aboriginal Education to deliver a purpose-built Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural education program for children. This immersive cultural learning experience includes weekly classroom activities, as well as an authentic Aboriginal handmade artefacts and education kit.
Our Safety Commitment
At Aussie Kindies and Affinity Education, we believe that child safety is everyone’s responsibility. We are committed to upholding the safety, rights and wellbeing of all children and promote a culture of child safety with a zero-tolerance approach to child abuse and harm.
