What the parents say
What the parents say
My son attends Imagine Nerang and I can’t speak more highly of them. The staff go above and beyond, really care for the kids and are always happy and engaging. They have a lot of Educators on site who provide a safe, inclusive and nurturing environment. It takes me 30 minutes to leave in the afternoon as my son doesn’t want to leave. They have a lot of staff highly trained for kids with Autism. Highly recommend this centre.
Emma - parent
My daughter has been at Imagine Nerang for 5 months now and loves going each day. It was so hard to find a daycare that I felt comfortable leaving my baby at, but from the moment I walked into Imagine Nerang I felt at ease and just knew this was the right daycare for me. I honestly can’t speak highly enough about all the staff as they have made an amazing environment for all the kids and are all so caring and kind. Can’t recommend Imagine Nerang enough!
Kristy - parent
I have my daughter enrolled at Imagine since July 2020 and the dedication and support of the entire team is truly amazing. My daughter absolutely loves her daycare and I can see what a positive impact it has had on her learning, They are the most amazing group of Educators who constantly go above and beyond for the children in their care. Beautiful facilities, engaging activities and excellent communication! Couldn’t be happier with Imagine Childcare!

About the curriculum
About the curriculum
At Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Nerang, the play-based curriculum is meaningful and based on evidence and understanding of the developmental and emotional needs of each child. The Educators base their learning on approved Frameworks and theorists. The Educational Philosophy is based on Howard Gardiner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences.
The centre provides an inclusive program, tailored to the individual needs of children. When developing lifelong skills, the Educators believe that it is important to introduce all children to the world holistically. Along with the typical development skills that are learnt, children will develop empathy, social connectedness, sharing, understanding, and a way to develop awareness of, and support for, their peers as they immerse themselves in the program. This learning assists to create lifelong positive social connections.
The children are cared for in the following groups:
- Nursery
- Toddlers
- Junior Kindy
- Pre Kindy
- Kindergarten
- ACE Programme (Autism Connect Early Programme)
Meet the team
Meet the team
At Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Nerang, the supportive and dedicated team of long-term Educators bring a breadth of experience in child care, and work closely with families to develop programs that suit each individual child.
The Educators uphold a positive spirit of professional, honest, and happy interactions with the families of the children in their care. They support and mentor collaborative relationships and acknowledge and support each team member’s diverse strengths, knowledge, and experiences and promote ethical leadership.
The centre regularly engages in reflective practices and shows commitment to continuous improvement and ongoing learning to ensure the highest quality care and education is provided and maintained at all times. Parents are offered a complementary barista coffee at drop off time, which is a chance for them to chat to Educators about their child’s learning and development.
I am passionate about building safe, secure and trusting relationships not only with the children but with the families. I am extremely dedicated towards the Early Years Sector and providing a supportive environment where our Educators have continuous support and room for growth and development. I look forward to getting to know you and your beautiful family.
Sophie Meyer, Centre Director, Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Nerang
I started my journey with Imagine as a school-based trainee where I went on to get a permanent position and complete my diploma. I am now a lead Educator in the Toddler room and couldn’t ask for a better company to work for. Our Centre director Sophie is so supportive and we have such a great team environment. All of the Educators at Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Nerang have the same passion and that is providing a safe, secure and fun environment for the children in our care.
Abby – Toddler Lead Educator
Upon leaving my interview for the Early Childhood Teacher position at Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Nerang, I was so inspired to be a part of the team. The Kindergarten program offers age appropriate play based learning experiences to prepare the whole child for their transition to school. Through enriched caregiving the children are encouraged to build their capacity for learning, which is individualised to meet the varying needs of the children. It is an absolute pleasure to be part of this supporting team of Educators who hold early childhood development at the forefront of their decision making and planning for the children in their care.

Health & nutrition
Health & nutrition
The centre understands that nutrition plays an important role in each child’s physical development as well as their attitudes towards healthy food.
All meals and snacks are prepared onsite by professional qualified chefs every day. The children work alongside the Educators to care for the centre’s vegetable patches, and these vegetables are then used in the kitchen or for cooking experiences with the children.
The Educators use meal time as an opportunity to share positive experiences around food and to help children develop social skills such as sharing and turn taking. They role model positive behaviours and attitudes, and involve the children in the menu planning.
All food allergies, intolerances, cultural requirements and family preferences are taken into account by consulting with parents when meal planning for the children.

Absolutely love Imagine Nerang & super glad we found it over a year & a half ago. The facilities are amazing, and the staff are all so kind, caring and nurturing. We’ve been in babies, toddlers & junior kindy rooms & have had great experiences in all. Plus I love that there is low turnover so the kids really get to bond with the educators. Both my kids have allergies which the staff take great care of, especially the wonderful chef! Read more

We have recently enrolled our daughter in the nursery two days a week. We couldn’t be happier. Special thankyou to Miss Lucky and Miss Linda who go above and beyond for Louise (our daughter). It’s scary to leave your child in the care of someone and they made the process so much easier as it’s so clear how much they really care about the bubs and enjoy their jobs. Also big thankyou to center director Mrs T who has been so patient with me and patiently answered my fifty million questions and has made us feel so welcomed since day 1. I look forward to watching my daughter blossom over the next few years at kindy Read more

We’ve been happy with our experience at Imagine Nerang. The educators have gone above and beyond to build strong, meaningful relationships not just with our son, but with our whole family. It’s clear they truly care and take the time to get to know each child individually. The team creates such a warm and nurturing environment, and we’ve seen our son thrive emotionally, socially, and developmentally since starting here. Communication is always open and genuine, and we feel fully supported and included in his learning journey. We’re so grateful to have found a centre that values connection, consistency, and care. Highly recommend to any family looking for a supportive and relationship-focused early learning centre. Read more

They genuinely care about the children, have an amazing programme for all the kids (Inc Japanese lessons, Jumping Jim's and Music). It's diverse and keeps the kids interested each day. The teachers have so much empathy for the littles and know how to distract them when they are sad (especially at drop off). Knowing my children and well cared for, have nutritious meals (made by the on site chef!), have fun and are allowed to be children makes my mind so much more at ease each day. The changes and growth I have seen in both my little ones blows my mind each day. I cannot thank them enough for what they do. Read more
