C&K Upper Kedron Childcare Centre welcomes children from 6 weeks to 5 years old and provides quality early childhood education and care Monday through Friday. We offer flexible booking options so families can choose the hours of care to suit their individual needs.
Upon entering C&K Upper Kedron, visitors immediately notice our child-centred approach. We maintain a warm, welcoming environment that promotes feelings of safety, security, and support under the guidance of our qualified educators. Our team is dedicated to nurturing play-based learning experiences, building meaningful relationships with children and families, and cultivating each child's lifelong passion for learning.
Our centre is positioned within Upper Kedron's natural bushland setting. The facility was designed in collaboration with educators and families to create engaging spaces where children can learn and play. Our expansive outdoor area maximises the natural environment, encouraging children to explore, discover, and connect with Country.
C&K childcare centres offer quality education and care programs where we focus on a unique infant and toddler approach, as well as delivering the approved kindergarten program for 4 year olds.
C&K Upper Kedron operates within the developing Ellendale community at 52 Honeyeater Street, Upper Kedron. The centre is conveniently situated next to Ellendale Village Shopping Centre.

C&K has developed an Infant and Toddler Approach, which informs the way we care for and educate our babies and toddlers. Our philosophy for this age is to “slow down” and be in the moment with your child as they learn and explore the world. We focus on developing a deep and trusting relationship with each child.
All C&K childcare centres deliver C&K's quality kindergarten program. Kindergarten, also known as pre-prep or preschool, is a program for children who are turning 4 by June 30 in the year before they attend school. C&K’s kindy programs are government-approved and led by experienced and university qualified teachers. Our program supports children’s curiosity, creativity, problem solving, resilience and real-world knowledge and skills.
At C&K, we know that children do not learn in isolation, so we approach learning as a collaborative relationship between teachers, educators, children and families. We believe children are powerful learners, active citizens, thinkers and theorisers - this is at the heart of our early childhood curriculum. We've designed our indoor and outdoor spaces to ignite imaginations and nurture healthy minds and bodies. Learning through play is an integral part of our education program. Our educators skilfully enrich and extend children's play experiences, creating a learning program that is tailored and meaningful for your child.
Your child’s learning and care journey is shared with you via conversations with your child’s educators, through written documentation and through Storypark (an app and website).
Enrolment Fee: The enrolment fee is a one-off, non-refundable fee payable when you confirm your child’s enrolment. Some families may be exempt from paying the enrolment fee.
Child Care Subsidy: The Australian Government helps eligible families with the cost of childcare via the Child Care Subsidy (CCS). For more information, please visit Services Australia.
Queensland Kindergarten Funding: The Queensland Government also provides funding for eligible-aged children (children turning 4 by 30 June, in the year they attend a kindy program), attending a centre delivering a government-approved kindergarten program. If eligible, you could receive up to 15 hours of free kindy per week, for 40 weeks.
Flexible Booking Options: C&K offers flexible booking options, designed to help eligible families access and maximise the CCS, and minimise out-of-pocket fees. Our 9 and 10 hour sessions work in with your schedule and start once your child is signed in, not a set start and finish time.
Please visit our Childcare Fees page for more information.
