ABOUT US

Our Family, Our Vision

We are a bunch of fun-loving teaching friends (aka Mums and Grandmas!) who have dedicated ourselves to children and the community for over 60 years collectively.

Together, we are the co-creators of Kindy Cottage Sandgate.

We get excited about growing great children.

They make us smile.

We are very enthusiastic and talk way too much about creating wondrous spaces where children are allowed to be children, where character building and life skills are our focus and where the  environment evokes the natural curiosity to learn.

And go “Wow” at the dirty, messy fun.

We aim to make parents feel comfortable in the knowledge that their children are safe, they are loved and that children go “Wow” at the dirty, messy and time-consuming experiences that we as mums and grandmas often find challenging to do at home.

Join us.

INSPIRATION

We are here for the sole purpose of helping Mums and Dads do what they need to do, while being so inspirational for children that they do not realise they are learning.

We want to share the joy with you and your family.

Our Team, Our Vision
Meagn and Julie

Meet Megan and Julie

As a Mum and a Nana these teaching friends together have over 60 years’ of hands-on experience in schools and childcare services in Brisbanes’ north.

We’re passionate about messy, child-initiated learning

With an interest in having fun, the team embraces active play, the excitement of discovery, and involvement in community events and celebrations as part of the everyday routine.

We are role models

As parents, teachers and carers, we are role models every minute and we must be mindful of our impact on children and their space. Our activity needs to be worthy of imitation.

Our approach is collaborative, encouraging the team to show and explore their interests, strengths and talents.

Choosing a team.

Choosing the right people in child education is dependent on whether we trust potential candidates with our own children and grandchildren.

Core values we look for are kindness, fun and an inherent dedication to children and their families’ needs.
We understand the importance of the very best financial and working environment in retaining team members so children have consistency of care and trusting relationships can develop.

Feel free to contact us.             

We look forward to meeting you.
