Welcome to Mother Duck Child Care Carindale
Our educators work diligently to establish secure, supportive relationships with each child. In this environment, children feel comfortable, allowing their inquisitive minds to blossom. Our educators intentionally plan their classrooms to promote a sense of belonging through the familiarity of home-like spaces. Rooms in our Carindale child centre are well resourced to support and foster children’s curiosity, problem-solving, early literacy and early numeracy skills.
We’ll also be providing healthy and nutritious meals in 2021.
