Young Academics Early Learning Centre - Kingsford
Young Academics Early Learning Centre - Kingsford Centre overview
Our Kingsford Eastern Sydney Young Academics daycare centre is purpose-built to create vibrant, stimulating learning environment designed to nurture each child’s cognitive development, confidence and social skills during the critical early learning years. As a forward-thinking organisation we are constantly researching and reflecting to discover the latest advances in early childhood education.
Positioned in a quiet residential street, the centre reflects the family-orientated nature of the region, with indoor and outdoor spaces that are designed to foster children’s love of learning. Our environment encourages exploration and discovery, complemented by the natural surroundings.
Through our custom-designed programs – like our Evolution Program and the Transition to School Program – our passionate, experienced educators, deliver a holistic education balancing organised experiences with play-based learning at stations dedicated to key skills including numeracy, literacy, STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), music, drama and art.
Our indoor learning environment is packed with age-appropriate resources promoting imaginative play, experimentation and collaboration. Our outdoor learning environment helps children develop their curiosity, gross motor skills and understanding of sustainability using resources such as building areas, sandpits, bike tracks, herb gardens and worm farms.
Kingsford Young Academics Eastern Sydney Early Learning Centre works closely with families and the local community to meet children’s needs, where many families continue to visit our educators many years after their children have moved on to school.
Children enjoy five nutritious meals and snacks every day, prepared by our in-house cooks, and all nappies and wipes are included. Cot linen provided (excludes stretcher bed linen).

Traumatic.. the one word I would use to describe my child’s enrolment there, for both him and myself. This experience has made me doubt every childcare I ever walk into. If you want your child to be hit by an ‘educator’, baby sat by an iPad and discriminated against- this is the place for you. The centre & head office did not make appropriate accommodations to include my child who is autistic. He received funding for an inclusion person for his room which was not utilised, however blamed him for the ‘educators’ feeling traumatised and worn down. When really this stems from the lack of management and disregard for staff wellbeing. His enrolment had been cancelled after multiple complaints and concerns over his and other children’s safety, particularly about a gate that they changed that he could get out of. Instead of fixing the gates they chose to terminate his enrolment. If he can get out then what is stopping the other children. This place is a disgrace and is highlighted by the way ‘educators and management’ speak to the parents and question them about their personal lives. For the sake of your child, don’t send them here. You don’t know what else is happening behind closed doors after you leave & you don’t know what they aren’t telling you to protect themselves from the lack of care they are showing to your child. Child care is hard to find and expensive but definitely not wor to sending your child to a place with free spots especially since there is normally a reason people are also avoiding/leaving that place. Children deserve the same respect as adults do and you won’t find respect is a value of this centre. Read more

Unprofessional, not inclusive and disrespectful. The carers did not accommodate for young autistic boy and cancelled the child's enrolment giving the parents less than 3 hours notice on a Friday afternoon without any explanation. There is no real care for the wellbeing of the children. Read more
Good morning Evangelie, it is disappointing to read your feedback and in turn review of our service. Your grandson was enrolled with us for almost 2 years and strongly believe we provided quality care & education within our environment and the community resources we had at hand. Nevertheless, we wish your family all the best for the next chapter of Primary Education. Take care, Young Academics Management.
This is one of the best centres I visited when looking for child care centre in the area. My bub has now started in... This is one of the best centres I visited when looking for child care centre in the area. My bub has now started in the nursery room and the educators are all very lovely and nurturing, especially as she adjusted to the new environment. The educators are very conscious of all the different personalities and accomodating to their learning needs so each bub continues to grow and be happy in the environment. Facilities are very clean, and their lots of preparation goes into educational activities for the week Read more
