Our story

My name is Gillian I am the owner and director of Kindy Kids since 2011.

I have a diploma in Early Childhood and Education, and for over 25 years I have worked with 3-5 age range of children .

I am extremely passionate about my job and believe children should have opportunities to learn through educational play in a fun and caring atmosphere. I am very fortunate to work alongside Devina and Sandra and learn from their childcare knowledge. The girls are an asset to the program, with their enthusiasm and support we are able to deliver a unique program for your child to part of.

I moved from Scotland in 2007 with my two children and love staying in such a beautiful country. In my spare time I enjoy watching my children participate in their sports: Irish Dancing and Golf.

Being a mum is the most rewarding job in the world. As a mum I can empathise with all your concerns regarding your child’s wellbeing.

Our Philosophy

At Kindy Kids we strive to provide an educational, inspiring, welcoming and fun learning environment for children to develop to their full potential. We offer a loving, caring, safe home-like ethos that is warm and inclusive of all cultures, nationalities, abilities and family situations.

Our kindy program provides opportunities for children to follow a structural and flexible routine to prepare for a smooth transition into school.

All children are unique with different interests, backgrounds and developmental stages. We ensure that our program provides developmentally age appropriate activities for each individual to master new challenges that are meaningful to build their self-esteem as they develop and learn.

Children are provided with choices, responsibilities and opportunities to initiate their own learning. Children will work independently and in groups to express, imagine, explore, discover and think for themselves.

Child interest and learning areas in our planning are guided by the National Quality standards and the early years learning framework.

General Information

We feel it is important for parents to be kept fully informed about their child’s day and what they will be learning throughout the term. We will relate information via a notice board, newsletter, facebook and emails. We always welcome Parental participation or any suggestions you may have.

When starting Kindy please provide A3 portfolio for your child’s art work, a packet of biscuits/crackers, coloured or white paper, google eyes, paper plates, 3 glue sticks 

A water bottle with your child’s name on it, a spare change of clothes clearly labelled a hat for outdoor play and sun cream applied to your child before each session.

At your child’s birthday you are welcome to provide a cake or biscuits for all the children to share at snack time.

All Medications must be handed to a member of staff and parents must fill out a medical authority form for medications to be administered.

Parents are asked to keep infectious children at home. A child cannot be accepted into our care with signs of any communicable disease or condition which may prejudice the health of others.
If your child is unwell please phone us to let us know that they will not be attending Kindy.

When enrolling your child you must provide us with a photocopy of their immunisation record.

At all times our priority is the safety of the children in our care. In the event of an emergency all play areas and toilets will be checked, and the children will be moved to the emergency point. Emergency services and parents will be notified.

Traditional custodians

Kindy Kids would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet, the Whadjuk people. Kindy Kids wish to acknowledge and respect their continuing culture and the contribution they make to the life of this city and this region. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to them and their cultures; and to elders both past and present
