About KU Ultimo Children's Centre

KU Ultimo 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 committed teachers and educators build strong, trusting relationships with each child, fostering a sense of belonging and confidence.

Set in a beautiful heritage building bathed in natural light, KU Ultimo is a welcoming and inclusive long day care service with a wonderful outdoor space for your child to explore.

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.

We specialise in the Resources for Infant Educarers (RIE) Approach, which emphasises respectful and attentive interaction with infants. We focus strongly on building secure relationships, enabling children to develop confidence, feel valued and make positive connections with others.

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

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

Director Jenny Liu is a university-qualified Early Childhood Teacher, practising since 2008.

She advocates for a play-based learning environment that promotes social and cultural inclusivity, enabling children to develop a wide range of skills through hands-on learning experiences.

    My boy joined KU Ultimo since Nursery to Preschool, almost every time I pick up him no matter how late, the educators are very patient playing with him happily. Many fun activities built in learning. Much appreciated!

    My son went to KU from 11 months to 28 months. They have a lovely outdoor area, with lots of play opportunities for the kids. My son used to love the nursery where he was till he was 24 months. Somehow things didn't work out the way we wanted in the last 4 months and we are taking a break from the place mainly because of child:carer ratios, frequent staff turnover, and hygiene. But I would highly recommend the place nevertheless as I believe each child is different and as a parent we should make a choice based on the individual and not based on a review on Google.
