Clever Kids is a long day care facility and funded Kindergarten that has been operating for over 20 years. The team at Clever Kids have worked to build a centre that provides exceptional quality care and education within our local community. By maintaining a consistent and professional team of staff, we facilitate continuity and familiarity for the children and their families. Our educator-to-child ratios are higher than the recommended minimum, ensuring better supervision and relationship-building. Our team-approach ensures a harmonious and friendly environment for our children, families and staff who enjoy working with us year after year. We pride ourselves on employing more highly qualified educators, meaning your children are in the best of hands.
Clever Kids is a small centre of 45 places per day, meaning your child will never be lost in a crowd or become a number in the system. Each and every child becomes a part of the Clever Kids family, surrounded by caring educators in our homely centre. Our shared playground allows for siblings to enjoy time together and provides numerous learning opportunities for children to develop their skills and confidence in socialising and decision making. We utilise our small community to promote identity and wellbeing in all our members, from the smallest of our learners to our school-ready Clever Kids. We work closely with families to follow routines and maintain consistency from home to childcare, ensuring a smooth transition peace of mind.

What the parents say

I cannot fault Clever Kids. As most mums are, I was nervous about my daughters transition into childcare. But I had nothing to worry about. From day one I felt comfortable. She has been attending since she was 9 months old and loves going. The educators in the infant room are amazing! They are very kind, informed and great communicators. And the management are professional and approachable. It is a small and cosy centre and is truly my daughters home away from home. Looking forward to seeing her grow and thrive under their care in the years to come.

Clever Kids is a lovely small kinder and childcare with excellent quality of care. The educators and staff are unparalleled and my children have been thriving there. The kinder program is engaging and my children love their kinder days.
Kaitlyn K.
Amazing care for my 2 year old. I was a very anxious mum who had a terrible experience at another centre. As soon as I did a tour at Clever kids, I was drawn to the way the staff were so passionate about the kids. The staff turnover is really low so the kids know who they are saying everyday which made such a big difference to my son and me! The encouragement and car my son receives is second to none. It truly is his home away from home. Big thank you to all the team who put in 110% everyday. We love clever kids!

An absolutely wonderful centre. My son has attended for almost two years, and loves it. Our second son will start in 2020. The staff are warm, friendly and experienced. Could not recommend more highly. Beats all the fancy new chain centres popping up everywhere, hands down.

Love how the kids are welcomed and there is a sense of family feeling here. Kids are engaged in so many activities during the day, made new friends and very comfortable with the educators. All educators are familiar with the kids and know their names and parents. I am a happy mother knowing my little one is safe and happy which is what we all expect when we drop them off.

We have been here for 3 years now and love the centre. Is much smaller than the bigger chain centres and the staff are excellent and really care about the kids. Manager is an excellent communicator and has recently brought about some great changes. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for care for their kids.

All of the educators participate in regular professional development seminars to ensure they remain at the top of their profession.
We believe in children as being capable and competent learners, and initiators of enquiry into their own areas of interest. Every child has access to and is able to meaningfully participate in programs that support their interests and abilities.
