About Kids Academy Kensington
Welcome to Kids Academy Early Learning! We provide high quality early education and care for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years in a safe, nurturing and fun environment.
Our team of educators and teachers at Kids Academy Early Learning are specially trained in our unique Lifelong Learning Curriculum. The Lifelong Learning Curriculum is Australia’s most progressive approach to early education for children. Our Lifelong Learning Curriculum draws on current research, evidence informed practices and specific age group programs such as The Circle of Security in our babies’ rooms, Abecedarian Language Priority for our Toddlers and Inquiry Based Learning Projects for Kindergarten children.
Our Early Learning Centre has a range of inspiring environments for children to explore, including spacious outdoor play areas that encourage children to test their limits, build strength, and develop self-confidence. We also offer a range of incursions, focused on fitness and health, animals and nature, and the larger community. We provide fresh and nutritious meals for the children each day.
Our indoor and outdoor environments are carefully designed to nurture each child's growth and inspire a lifelong love for learning. Our dedication to excellence shines through in every aspect, from our curriculum delivery to our unwavering commitment to providing safe, high-quality services.
For families, the centre provides full transparency including real time updates and communication via the Storypark App. This ongoing partnership promotes continuity of learning and is important to help children make a smooth transition to primary school.
We welcome new families to call and learn more about our unique Curriculum or visit our website to book a tour or join our waitlist.

My son has been attending Kensington Kids Academy for a year and a half now and loves it. The team have created a beautiful community and generally care so much for the kids. My son has learned so much since attending and I look forward to having my daughter attend next year.
Response from the owner7 months agoIt is wonderful to hear how much your son enjoys his time with us, Sinead! We are so glad he’s thriving and gaining so much from his experience. Building a nurturing community where every child feels cared for is our top priority, and we’re delighted it’s making a difference for your family. We look forward to welcoming your daughter next year and continuing this journey with your family!

My daughter (currently 18 months) has been attending Kids Academy Kensington since 11 months old and we have had a great experience so far. Having no previous experience with a daycare centre I wasn’t sure what to expect but Kids Academy has been excellent. All the educators are very loving and caring for all the kids and definitely treat my little girl as their own. As a child that doesn’t generally warm quickly to others she is now so comfortable with all the educators. The facilities are always clean and tidy and the educators are always planning and preparing new activities for the kids. My daughter always enjoys the food provided and sleeps well in the cot room! We are very happy with Kids Academy Kensington.
Response from the owner9 months agoThank you Jessica for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that your daughter is settling in and building strong relationships with our educators at Kids Academy Kensington. Our friendly staff take great pride in organising engaging and interactive activities to support each child's development. We're thrilled to know our efforts are making a positive impact on your experience.

We have unfortunately had to move from the area. But my 2 kids were at Kids Academy Kensington. My son was there as a 9 month old up until 4 years old. It is an incredible childcare/kindy with amazing supportive, caring educators, clean, well organised facilities and just warmest childcare you can find in Melbourne. It ticks every box for a concerned parent enrolling their kids into childcare for the first time and Kindy. I highly recommend this childcare centre/kindy as it is absolutely incomparable to any other on this side of town in terms of facilities, care, and cleanliness standards. And don't forget to go across the road to Double Dutch bakery for the best coffee and croissants to top it off. I miss this Cafe and childcare already! 😢
Response from the owner12 months agoThank you for your lovely review Natalie! We have absolutely loved having your family in the centre and watching your beautiful children grow and learn with us. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your children’s learning journey and we hope the transition for your family has been an easy one.
