We left Kinder Haven just over a month now due to relocation to another suburb. Both Amelia and parents still miss Kinder Haven terribly. Amelia hasnt stopped asking to go back because she misses all her friends and friendly educators there. Kinder Haven is one of a kind, truly special place for kids to learn and have fun at the same time. Credits to all the educators, from Ramin and Sheree when Amelia was in the baby room, to Souad and Indrani, who Amelia was so fond of since she was a baby. Caitlyn , Theresa and Maria D always made dropping off easy. Jacqui is such an amazing educator who always go above and beyond for all her kids (she once stuck flies stickers all over the room to help Amelia to get over her flies phobia). Daniella is always helpful and you can find her from kitchen to all the rooms lending extra pair of hands. Last but not least, Sarah holds a very special place in Amelia’s heart and she still talks about her from time to time. Thank you all for the amazing 2 years, we will and still miss you all dearly.

The team at Essendon Fields are all wonderful friendly educators. My son always has a great time in his Kinder room. My son has been coming here since he was 1 year old for 3 days a week. Daniella and team has always supported me and my son with any concerns.

We think that this is the most convenient place for people living in Essendon. Good access from both the city centre and Essendon.
