About Highpoint Kinder Haven

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Maidstone, Maribyrnong, Kingsville, Seddon and Footscray. Many of our Children go on to attend local schools such as St Margaret's Primary School, supporting a smooth transition to school.

We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.

Our Learning Environments

Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:

  • Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
  • Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
  • Kindergarten (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.

We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.

Innovative Early Learning Programs

Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:

  • Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
  • Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
  • Personalised learning plans for each child.
  • Local school connections.

We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

    Definitely one of the best Child Care and kindergarten, in the area . Santina & the team are exceptional in their care for children and display amazing qualities each day

  • Emma Jenkins19 days ago

    Kinder haven has a great orientation process. Very friendly, kind and helpful staff. Has a great app to keep parents up to date throughout the day which helps with any anxiety or worries (especially in the early days when your child/children first start attending). Is a great location within close proximity to a primary school which they are aligned with. Secure and clean with great outdoor play areas and a great variety of food options for each different day. Flexible and accomodating for shift working parents. Have had a positive experience since commencement and children are loving making new friends and forming great relationships with staff and look forward to going to care/kinder.
