"Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded."
-Jess Lair
Nestled in the heart of Balgowlah, our preschool and long day care centre welcomes children from 6 months to 6 years old into a world of wonder and discovery. We pride ourselves on providing your little one with the best care and fostering a safe and nurturing environment where they can flourish. At Balgowlah Early Learning, your child will embark on an exciting journey filled with love, exploration, and top-tier education.
At Kelvin Kindergarten, we take pride in our small and distinctive childcare centre.
We value each child as a unique individual and believe in their capabilities as confident learners. Our curriculum is designed to enhance every child's early learning and developmental outcomes, encompassing aspects such as their identity, community connections, well-being, confidence as learners, and communication skills.
Our commitment to promoting nutritious choices extends beyond the plate; we believe that what we consume is deeply interconnected with the environment that surrounds us. In our nurturing environment, we encourage children to engage in meaningful conversations about their food and the world around them, fostering a sense of curiosity and understanding in their early years.
Our outdoor spaces are thoughtfully curated with an array of natural elements and materials, providing ample opportunities for hands-on exploration and discovery. Here, children can engage in properly designed risk play elements, fostering resilience, confidence, and physical development in a safe childcare environment.
Our educators come from diverse cultural backgrounds, enriching our centre with a tapestry of experiences and perspectives. Many hold university degrees and qualifications beyond early childhood education, offering a wealth of knowledge in various fields.
Our Philosophy
At Balgowlah Early Learning – We are proud to be a small and close-knit centre where every child, family, and educator is truly known and cared for. We share the belief that children are capable, curious learners, and that they thrive in environments where they feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves.
Safety and well-being are at the heart of everything we do. Our centre prioritises creating a space that feels like a second home, warm, calm and secure. Whether they are playing, resting, or simply enjoying quiet moments, we want every child to feel this is a place where they truly belong.
As a 36-place centre, we have the opportunity to build strong, meaningful relationships that are at the heart of each child's learning journey. Our educators are intentional in their practice, taking the time to understand each child as an individual. We thoughtfully design learning experiences that reflect children’s interests and strengths, while remaining responsive to spontaneous moments of exploration and discovery. Through this approach, we nurture a sense of belonging, confidence and joy in learning.
We value diversity in all its forms and believe that a strong sense of belonging begins with kindness, respect, and connection. By working closely with families and engaging with our community, we create a space where everyone feels welcome and included.
Every child is precious, and we are committed to growing alongside our children and families as a caring, connected community.
