Welcome
We extend a warm welcome to you from the team at C&K Kedron Childcare Centre. We are housed in a purpose-built facility which accommodates children between the ages of 6 weeks to 5 years. As a home away from home, our environment provides feelings of being safe, secure and supported while in the care of our qualified educators.
Our Facilities
Our service has a combination of age-based rooms and welcoming spaces that provide opportunities for a variety of ages to interact. We also offer a unique outdoor environment with large natural play spaces. We encourage the care of our natural world through teaching responsibility and sustainability practices.
We have an all-inclusive daily service fee including nutritious meals prepared fresh daily, quality nappies, t-shirts, water bottles, hats and visiting entertainment. We have been granted a commercial kitchen license by Brisbane City Council, with the maximum 5 Star rating and a qualified chef to prepare food daily.
Relationships
We pride ourselves on our connection to the natural environment, our relationships with families and the community, and the inclusion of, and celebration of all cultures. Our Kedron centre reflects the C&K philosophy of inclusiveness and our spaces are designed to promote competence, independent exploration and nature-based play.
At C&K childcare centres, we have introduced the Birth to Three approach which informs the way our educators care for, and educate our youngest children. Our philosophy is to "slow down" with your child as they learn and discover. Educators are focused on spending one-on-one time with babies and toddlers to develop trusting relationships.
Our Team
Our team is led by Jeannie Prangell and Geetanjali (Geetu) Bhatia
We warmly invite you to place your child’s name on our waitlist (click the pink Enrol now button above) and become a part of the C&K Kedron community. Together, we can nurture our children and build a strong foundation to continue their journey in learning and life.

Child-Led Learning
No two days are the same at C&K Kedron. Each day’s learning is driven by the interests and ideas of the children. The spacious and natural environments within our centre are thoughtfully planned and well resourced, with opportunities to meet the needs and interests of all children who attend. This is achieved through the provision of combined indoor and outdoor play opportunities throughout the day. Play offers children many opportunities to develop friendships, explore, solve problems, help others, imagine, create, and extend on their interests.
Community Spirit
Community spirit is important to us at C&K Kedron. We foster strong ties to the local community and encourage parent involvement in the daily operations of the centre. We often hold and partake in community events and love connecting with local businesses and groups around us.
Birth to Three Approach
At C&K we are exploring new approaches for the educators that care for and educate our littlest people at C&K childcare centres. The Birth to Three approach, which we have developed, is all about being in the moment with your child. Our philosophy for this age group is to “slow down” and to slow down some more to allow children the time to learn and discover at their own pace. We are focused on spending one-on-one time with babies and toddlers and developing deep and trusting relationships with each individual child.
