‘My children have the same teachers my 15-year-old nephew did when he went to Care for Kindies. If the teachers are there for that long, it must be good! My kids are always happy and it feels like family.’

Our award-winning Sydney childcare centres are located in Belfield and Leppington and provide high-quality care from 7.00am to 6pm, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays).
We’re proud to have qualified, experienced and mature educators who have been part of the Care for Kindies family for many years. They spend time getting to know the needs, interests and abilities of every child and enjoy building strong relationships with their families. We celebrate diversity in our childcare centres and have educators from a range of cultures and backgrounds, many who speak more than one language. Our educators are passionate about delivering high-quality education and care to children, in a safe and caring environment that helps them thrive.
Our education program provides a strong foundation for learning and has been developed by qualified educators with more than 15 years’ experience in early childhood education. The curriculum provides babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers with a combination of structured and free-play activities, to support their development and prepare them for their school years ahead.

We believe in smiles
We focus on creating an atmosphere where the children feel energised and engaged. The children’s emotional wellbeing is at the forefront of our educator’s minds. Our educator’s patience and dedication is paramount to encouraging positivity, resilience and growth among the children. We’ve built a culture where the children are enriched and parents feel comfort knowing their children are being cared for properly. Walking into one of our centres, you can witness a rich sense of interaction and connection among all the members of our family community. You’ll see the genuine smiles on our children, parents and educators.
We believe in inquisitive minds
Our educators wholeheartedly believe that each child is capable, inventive and imaginative. We take on a holistic approach allowing independence, exploration and self-expression to develop. Each child at Care for Kindies is given endless opportunities to discover, learn and feel accomplished throughout the day. Our philosophy is focused around inspiring knowledge in a genuine, engaging yet playful manner.
We understand the importance of having committed educators who love to teach. The children develop their own love for learning from a young age in this safe and accepting environment. We’re proud of the long tenure of our qualified educators who have been part of the Care for Kindies family for many years.
We believe in a connection the natural environment
We believe that childcare should be an extension of your home. Each space within our four centres is creatively imbued with colour, artworks, books, toys, building materials, photographs, art supplies and natural materials. We encourage the children to interact and feel connected to the physical environment around them.
We believe in doing our small part to make the world a better place. We teach the children about nature and how to respect their environment. In the garden the children witness growth, seasonal changes and the cycles of living things. Our desire is for the children to develop a sense of responsibility and care for their local community and the wider world around them.
We believe in children
Everything we do is about giving children the best start in life by providing them with the right tools to develop and grow. We strive to ensure that each child and family feel like they belong. Family values have always been at the heart of the way we operate and are the basis of what we teach the children. We are very proud of the sense of ‘family’ we have created among our staff, parents, children and siblings.
Our philosophy focuses on creating genuine smiles, encouraging inquisitive minds, fostering a connection to the natural environment and of course giving our children the best start in life.
