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.

🦷 A fun visit with a very important message!

Our little learners had a wonderful time during their dental health visit, where they were introduced to the importance of caring for their teeth in a positive and child-friendly way.

These early experiences help children feel more comfortable, confident and aware when it comes to looking after their smiles. From listening and learning to asking questions and joining in, it was lovely to see the children so engaged throughout the visit.

A big thank you to our special visitors for making dental health such a fun and meaningful learning experience for the children! 💛

Our Pre-Kinder children have been exploring the wonderful world of composting! 🌱

After making their very own soup during cooking class, the children used the leftover food scraps to create a compost jar. This sparked a hands-on learning experience about worms, how they break down food, and why compost is so helpful for our gardens.

A beautiful way to learn about sustainability, nature, and caring for our environment — one little jar at a time ✨
