The staff have given weekly updates about his progress and achievements and its never a stressful dropoff. Our daughter is thriving and happy to attend each day in the kindergarten room and is excited even to attend early for breakfast. We especially like the onsite cooked meals and updates about student learning and school readiness. We would recommend this centre. ### C Mahoney Jannali Kinder Haven 1 has truly exceeded my expectations in every aspect.

My 2-year-old son has only ever been in the care of parents/grandparents and a family daycare educator so we were apprehensive as to how he would settle in to a bigger setting. From the very first day, it was evident that the staff at Jannali Kinder Haven 1 are not only dedicated professionals but also genuinely caring individuals. The Director, in particular, stood out for her unwavering support. During his first few weeks, she personally checked in with me, offering reassurance and ensuring a smooth transition for both myself and my child. This personal touch meant the world to me and truly set the tone for the exceptional care we received. The staff at the center are incredibly attentive to my son’s needs and always approachable. It’s obvious they have a genuine passion for what they do. My son is always greeted with a smile, and it’s heartwarming to see how they treat him with such gentleness and understanding. The program at Jannali Kinder Haven 1 is nothing short of fantastic. It's engaging, fun, and thoughtfully designed to cater to my son’s needs. Whether it's creative activities, outdoor play or educational games/songs I've seen firsthand how my son has thrived in this stimulating environment. Their communication app is excellent! I’m provided with continuous updates throughout the day, allowing me to stay informed about my son's activities, meals and nap schedule. The center itself is impeccably maintained. It's evident that cleanliness and hygiene are top priorities, which is especially important and to my relief he hasn't had any sickness which I hear so often happens when little ones start out at daycare. From the play areas to the facilities, everything is so well looked after. I’m so grateful we have found Jannali Kinder Haven 1! ### Source: Google Business Profile G8 Education does not control or endorse the content of individual reviews.

[Click here to book a tour online.](/book-a-tour) On the day of the tour, you can observe practices and interactions within the centre environment. You’ll be able to see all the rooms and playgrounds, ask the team members any questions you have in mind, and get all the information you need to make the best decision for your child. ## Enrolling is simple, and our Family Support Team will guide you through each step. First, find your local centre and book a tour so you can meet the team and explore the learning environment. If the centre is the right fit and a place is available, you’ll receive an enrolment offer for your child. If a place is not currently available in your child’s age group, we can add your child to the waitlist and keep you updated. To finalise your enrolment, you’ll complete an online enrolment form through a secure link sent by our Family Support Team. You’ll also need to provide key details and documents, including your child’s birth certificate, Medicare details, immunisation history statement and, if eligible, your Child Care Subsidy details. Before your child’s first day, you may be invited to attend a Stay and Play session. This gives your child time to explore the centre, meet their educators, and start feeling comfortable in their new environment. Once your paperwork is complete, your child is ready to start their early learning journey with us. [Read our step-by-step guide on how to enrol here.](/family-information/how-to-enrol) ## Starting child care is a big milestone, and a little preparation can help your child feel more comfortable and confident. Before your child’s first day, you can talk positively about their new centre, explain what their day might look like, and practise small routines such as packing their bag, saying goodbye, washing hands and sitting down for meals. You may also like to visit the centre with your child, meet their educators and ask our team about what to bring on the first day. When your child starts, our educators will take the time to get to know your child’s routine, interests, comfort items and individual needs. Settling in looks different for every child, so we work closely with families to help children feel safe, supported and ready to learn. [Learn more about our Settling-in Program.](/family-information/settling-in-program) ## Most of our child care and early education centres offer nappies and wipes, sunscreen and hats, as well as nutritious meals prepared by our in-house cook. Some centres also provide sheets and formula, so you may not need to remember to pack them. For nursery children, be sure to bring: nappy rash cream, dummies, bottles and teats, comfort toys or blankets, three spare outfits, spare socks and a plastic bag for wet clothes. For toddlers and preschool or kindergarten-aged children, it’s best to bring: spare underwear, water bottle or sippy cup, sun hat, closed-toe shoes, two spare outfits, spare socks and a plastic bag for wet clothes. Plus, anything else your individual child may need, such as breast milk, a sleeping bag, a comforter or medication. It’s best to speak to your centre of choice for a full list of everything included. ## Kinder Haven uses Xplor Home as our [family communication app](/family-information/family-communication). It is the best and easiest way to keep track of your child’s day. After you enrol your child with the centre, you can utilise Xplor Home to book child care days, manage your account, receive the photographs that capture your child’s learning, learn about your child’s progress, as well as keep up-to-date with upcoming centre events and important information. ## If your child shows signs of an infectious illness when they arrive at the centre or becomes sick during the day, you may be notified that you need to make alternative arrangements or pick up your child from the centre and keep them home until they are no longer infectious. While we understand that this can be inconvenient, Kinder Haven is committed to maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of infection for all children. Under the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), families are allowed 42 absence days per child, per financial year. These can be taken for any reason, including public holidays and when children are sick, without requiring families to provide documentation. ## Contact us We look forward to welcoming your family.
