Community Kids Haven Ardeer Your child’s home away from home in Ardeer - a warm, nurturing early learning and childcare service where children feel safe, supported, and valued.

Community Kids Haven are dedicated in providing the highest quality of childcare for all children. We believe every child is unique and has distinctive aptitude, ability and talent. Early years learning and positive experiences lay a solid foundation for the rest of their life. Our child care centres are committed to provide your children a creative, stimulating, safe and intrinsically motivating

environment to unleash their unique potentials and raise them as a valuable contribution to the future society. Community Kids Haven Child Care Centres, Early Years Learning Framework and quality play based program furnishes endless opportunities to learn and practice progressive exploration and thinking, life skills of interaction, sharing and resolution and scaffold to shape up an exquisite self image. Children are invigorated to learn independently, explore in their own-ways and make choices of objects and natural materials from their environment. We embrace the concept that young children are swift, imaginative, creative, enthusiastic and powerful learners and they own a natural faculty to control their own learning patterns. Our experienced, professional and rightly qualified educators facilitate, guide and extend these learning patterns in their everyday program, which plays a major role in children early years learning. At our Child Care Centres, we always emphasize the importance of parent input, participation and involvement into our early years learning program. Our team makes every effort to establish an open, positive and trusting relationship with the families. We believe children have the right to be treated equally in an equitable environment that respects and positively acknowledges each child regardless of race, culture, gender, class, disability and age. We encourage our children to respect and value differences in others and themselves. Our Qualified Child Care Educators endeavor relentlessly to achieve excellence in their role as learned educator, compassionate role models and caring nurturers of children’s learning and development.
