Kindy Kapers has been incredibly welcoming and accepting of our family since the moment we arrived. The team have gone out of their way to help meet our needs and accommodate any requests with professionalism and a friendly smile. We have every confidence in the educators who all go the extra mile with passion to provide a safe, stimulating, culturally diverse and thorough education experience.
Even throughout the uncertainty of COVID, Alana and the team have always strived to provide learning experiences above and beyond the call of duty both within the centre and on structured outings. We highly

Terribly disappointed is the right word to describe my experience with Kindy Kapers (owned by Affinity Education). The centre has progressively dropped in standards since it was taken over by Affinity Education. I pulled out my child for the following reasons:
Staffing changes are constant (the number of staff who have come and gone in recent years is frightening and as a result, Agency staff have had to be employed). Children need consistency and stability. Having new staff every week does not allow young ones to build strong and trusting relationships with their Educators.
Quality of learning

I am so happy we found Kindy Kapers Wakerly. After a couple of uncomfortable trials at other centres, when I walked into the Kindy 2 room it looked creative, inspiring and magical which for me I feel a classroom needs to be able to grab the attention of students. The director Alana personally gave the tour unlike other centres and promptly answered all questions and concerns I had about my son starting. The Kindy 2 teachers Marina and Yeshmina were very welcoming and happy to talk about any concerns or queries I had, and Scotty at the front desk was quick to respond with any enrollment or sign

Love the service provided by KK staff, always going above and beyond despite the challenges courtesy of all the lockdowns.
I had to pick up my sons sister yesterday to help pry him away from the vely staff at KK because he didn't want to leave with just my persuasion!

I just want to say that my daughter is blossoming in Kindy One and its not only me who thinks so, family have noticed this as well. She is very engaged and is excited by the variety of things she is learning and experiencing each week. I've also noticed her writing has taken off and she often asks me how words are spelt so she can write them out herself. After a shaky start to her final kindy year it's all coming together now 😊 Thank you all for doing such a great job! - Proud parent in Kindergarten One

Both of my children have attended Kindy Kapers and I couldn't recommend Kindy Kapers high enough. All the staff are friendly, approachable and passion about providing a safe, nurturing educational environment for all children. Kindy Kapers provide child focused program that incorporates different cultures, sustainability, community and nature in a fun play based learning for children. I love getting my daily updates of my children's day on storypark. Fantastic childcare centre!

What makes Kindy Kapers stand out are their people, culture and management, which I think are the most important factors in choosing a childcare service. I have visited many other centers in the bayside area and KK is the best of all. The educators and staff are very caring and loving. They make every effort and give continued support throughout the growth of my little one. The management team are dedicated in providing high level of childcare and early learning services. Highly recommend Kindy Kapers.

The educators at this centre are amazing! They always maintain the highest standard of educational program and practice as well as an aesthetically stimulating environment that complements the children's current learning. They apply their thorough knowledge of the national Early Childhood curriculum guidelines to their everyday routines to ensure best practice is always followed. I highly recommend this centre for children of any ages below school age.

The educators are nothing short of AMAZING. They treat each and every child like part of their own family and I honestly couldn't imagine sending my kids anywhere else! My 4yo daughter misses kindy on the weekends and wishes every Saturday was a Monday so she can go back to kindy as she just loves the friends she's made and all the fun stuff they… get to do. the learning is so diverse and I love how the centre believes in acknowledging different cultural backgrounds and teaches the kids this also. Highly recommend Kindy Kapers to anyone considering for their child ♥️

The educators at Kindy Kapers are the most dedicated and passionate about their profession that I have met. My children have been blessed to call this their kindy. They are appreciated for being themselves, offered experiences that cater to their individual needs, encouraged to be curious and to love learning, supported in all ways that are important to children and importantly make us feel like part of their family. Thank you Kindy Kapers!!

We love how the educators know our son and support him in trying new things and making friends. He gets to play with children of different ages and interact with a range of adults - whether they be educators, experts or talented parents of his classmates. The communication between us and the centre is fantastic and happens across a range of modes.
… He loves going to kindy and tells us he's lucky because he has really great teachers. We absolutely agree! Everyone in the centre is approachable, knowledgable and relaxed. We love how past educators always say hi too! Such a great community

The attention to detail in this centre is second to none. My children attended a different centre last year & since changing to Kindy Kapers Wakerley there has been an enormous change in their behaviour & emotional development. We love all the extracurricular activities that are offered, such as French lessons, Ginger Sport & Yoga to name a few. As a parent I feel very involved in my boys education because there is so much communication between the staff. I can honestly say I've never felt so comfortable & supported

I can honestly say I wouldn't have my child anywhere else, they have excellent teachers and they care for the children like they are there own. They deal with any issues or problems with the upmost care. I couldn't rate them highly enough. They have freshly cooked meals for the children and the facilities are great.
