About KU Carillon Avenue Children's Centre

KU Carillon Avenue goes beyond childcare. We create a safe and nurturing environment where childhood is celebrated.

We are proud of our longstanding reputation within the local community of providing rich education and care tailored to each child’s needs in a family-focussed and supportive way.

Our highly experienced and dedicated teachers and educators build strong, trusting relationships with each child, fostering a sense of belonging and confidence.

Our positive and vibrant environment is rich in natural, open-ended resources and spaces for discovery, adventure and exploration.

When children play and explore, their imagination and curiosity are sparked – they enjoy learning, and are inspired to continue learning more.

Our play-based program intentionally provides a wide range of engaging opportunities and activities based on the Early Years Learning Framework.

Since launching our kitchen garden program in 2014, connecting with nature has become integral to our curriculum. Families often cite this and our inviting outdoor spaces as key reasons for joining our community, recognising the importance for children to explore and connect with the natural world.

KU Carillon Avenue has been independently assessed by the NSW Department of Education, and are proud to be rated as Exceeding the National Quality Standard.

We believe that the positive interactions children have with our staff are the most important component of our high quality program. Our team of teachers and educators are qualified, experienced, caring and motivated.

Our staff undergo continuous professional development, staying at the forefront of early childhood education.

    Our daughter is attending KU Carillon for 9 months and loves going! We checked out the other centres in Camperdown and chose KU for several reasons. It had a warm community feel, smaller numbers, two outdoor spaces, and rates very well on the government measures. Delighted with our choice and the educators. Keep up the good work!

    We have loved our time at KU Carillon. The staff are wonderful, approachable and caring. We appreciate the time they have taken to get to know our child and our family.

    Our son is 2.5 and has been going to ku since he was 9 months. He loves being there so much loves all the educators who are so friendly and really care about the children they look after. We couldn't be happier with the day care and would recommend to anyone.

    I am so thrilled with the level of care my son is receiving at KU Carillon. My child looks forward to going every day and has formed lovely and genuine connections with the carers, whom he regularly talks about at home. The educational activities they regularly organise for him has him coming home wanting to show off all that he has learned about letters (because that is a particular interest of his). I’m also incredibly grateful for how flexible KU has been in offering extra days of care when I’ve found myself in a pinch needing extra childcare, that is enormously valuable for me.
