From the Key Day Nursery
We have a flexible scheduling policy and can work with parents that work shifts. Three distinct units鈥攂abies, toddlers, and pre-school鈥攁re located in the nursery and are all housed in a specially modified structure.
When parents reserve an entire week's worth of Full Day Sessions, we reduce the monthly bill by 5.00 each week.
At the back of the building, we have a private parking lot. With features like a staff-only restricted access system and security cards for each child, security and safety are of utmost concern.
Children are cared for in a friendly, inviting, and exciting environment at Key Day where they can flourish in terms of both their welfare and their education. Children have access to age-appropriate toys in each unit to encourage play and development.
In the nursery, the kids' health and wellbeing are constantly encouraged. We have increased the size of the outdoor space in the front garden, where kids can play every day with ease of access. We also have spaces for the kids to experiment with various sensory experiences and cultivate their own crops.
We offer wholesome refreshments in the morning and the afternoon. This includes daily servings of milk, water, and fresh fruit. The prices also include diapers and wipes.
We encourage parents to send their kids to school with a nutritious lunch. At mealtimes, we can also reheat food for your child. After turning three, every kid is eligible for government-provided Free Entitlement Funding.
