Kool Kidz Clyde North like all our other Kool Kidz services in Melbourne will operate all year round from 6:30am to 6:30pm Monday to Friday. The childcare centre will only be closed on public holidays. 

We are currently only accepting expressions of interest for Kool Kidz Clyde North. As the opening date approaches, we will contact families who have registered their interest with us and provide an enrolment kit.

Kool Kidz Clyde North will  offer childcare and early learning services for babies from 6 months old and school ready programs for Kindergarten children up to 6 years old.

Kool Kidz services support the inclusion of all children to participate in the programs that we offer. 

If you choose to enrol your child in our 3 & 4 year old Kindergarten program at Kool Kidz Clyde North, you will be entitled to up to $2,000 per child from the Victorian Government. 

The daily fee for our Clyde North location is yet to be determined and will be confirmed as we approach the opening date. Our daily fee will encompass all-inclusive services such as meals, nappies (if needed), as well as exciting incursions and excursions. 

This is processed through Centrelink – you can apply online or over the phone.

The Child Care Subsidy (CCS) works on a sliding scale system, meaning that the more income your household generates, the less help you will receive from the CCS. Conversely, the less income that your household generates, the more benefits you are entitled to from the CCS. Contact your Kool Kidz service manager/ operator to determine how much of your child’s fees will be covered by CCS.

We will schedule an Open Day for the Clyde North childcare service closer to the opening date. To stay informed about our opening day, please register your details with us. If you are unable to attend the Open Day at Kool Kidz Clyde North, you can still book a tour once the service officially begins operations.

ACECQA (Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority) The National Quality Framework is Australia’s system for regulating early learning and school-age care, including legislation and national quality standards, sector profiles and data, and learning framework.

Cognitive development in early learning is best defined as how children think, explore and work things out. It is the development of knowledge, skills, problem solving and dispositions, which help children to think about and understand the world around them. Our team uses play to help the children learn new skills as this is a technique shown to work well with young children.

There are many ways to help develop communications skills. If you’re worried about your child’s development, a chat with your educator is a great start. We would also encourage any worried parent to consult with their chosen medical professions (GPO/Paediatrician etc.)

Reading and chatting with your child is a great way to foster learning of language and comprehension. Playing games focused on language use is also a fun way to grow these skills.

We are an equal opportunity employer, meaning we encourage educators of all ages, gender and ethnicities to be part of our team. We use incursion days as a chance to educate our children about different cultures and continually foster an attitude of respect and kindness for all in our centres.

Our centre foster learning through play which means the children are kept active every day. We also have outdoor play ears in every centre, ensuring that our kids have a chance to run and play every day.

We encourage our kids to bond with their educators and their playmates, so they feel like our centre is an extension of their home every day.

Play-based learning offers children a fun way to discover their interests, abilities and limitations. It encourages imagination, investigation and exploration. It also provides them with a way to learn about social interactions and boundaries safely and in a fun way. By linking learning to play, we are helping foster a life long love of learning through positive associations.
