Kids Club is conveniently located in the heart of Macquarie Park business district making drop-off for local workers easy with access on the corner of Epping & Wicks Rd. The centre features plenty of onsite parking making drop-offs and pick-ups convenient.
Kids Club Macquarie Park has some of the most impressive playscapes in our entire award winning group of centres, with 10 square metres per child of unencumbered space, this completely immersive environment that includes a real helicopter with a flight centre, firetruck, motorbikes and all-immersive play spaces that are designed for all weather occasions and age appropriate equipment. It also has large sporting areas, an outdoor undercover musical theatrical learning space and its own grand piano.
At Kids Club Early Childhood Learning Centres we pride ourselves on providing the highest quality education and care to your child. We do this through a holistic approach to early education. Our play-based curriculum has been created to extend on the principles and practices of the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), Australia’s national curriculum for early childhood education.
When children participate in structured, play-based learning before they start school, they build key social, emotional and cognitive skills necessary to support lifelong learning. This is especially important for children experiencing vulnerability and disadvantage, who benefit the most from preschool. That is why Kids Club Macquarie Park is proud to partner with NSW Government to bring the Start Strong initiative to the centre.
If your child turns 4 years old on or before 31 July 2023, you will save up to $2,110 a year in eligible preschool programs in long day care.
This will be in addition to Australian Government Child Care Subsidy payments, which most families in long day care services are eligible to receive.
Kids Club centres provide absolutely everything your child needs to be comfortable all day, making the transition from home to daycare much easier. Check the video below to see everything included in your fees.
We transition children in our rooms based on their developmental needs.
Our daily fees are based on your child’s age group, and as Kids Club is recognised as a registered childcare provider, we are able to apply the Centrelink Child Care Subsidy (CCS).

Hi, my name is Luluanne, and I am the Centre Director at Kids Club Macquarie Park
I have been at Kids Club for 2 years and hold a Diploma of Children’s services. I am very passionate about building a Centre with the team, into a home for all children & families. I believe that each child is unique and has the right to be subjected to an abundance of rich experiences suiting their individual interests, abilities, cultural & family context, strengths, and knowledge.
At Kids Club Macquarie Park, the team and I strive to enhance children’s knowledge and development through play and utilising our unique playscapes and interest-based programs.
The Kids Club Macquarie Park Team & I look forward to meeting and welcoming you all!
At Kids Club we have certain room routines that educators follow. The routine will vary, depending on current events and activities. Having a routine in each of the rooms allows for smoother transitions into new activities, meals and rest time. The routine is available to families so you are aware of what your child is doing at certain times.
The day starts with family grouping sessions where breakfast is served. Here is when you can say goodbye to your little one. After breakfast, your child has time to play and learn at their own pace.
At this time of the morning, other children are still arriving, so the educators offer children different activities to engage in. The activities are purposefully selected to encourage our learning through play framework.
We then begin to transition into morning tea. After washing their hands your child will sit down where they choose and be served morning tea from the menu. If your child has dietary requirements they will be served an alternate meal.
Depending on the weather, your child will be offered to play indoors/outdoors for free playtime. This is where educators can make observations of what your child likes to do. During this time we also hold group activities with the children.
From 12 pm we begin to transition to lunchtime. Once your child’s hands are washed they will choose a seat where a hot lunch will be served to them. If your child has dietary requirements they will be served an alternate meal.
Sleep or rest time after lunch your child will have a rest in a peaceful tranquil room with educators patting if requested. If your child does not require sleep, they will take part in quiet activities such as reading.
After your child wakes up, afternoon tea will be served. If your child has dietary requirements they will be served an alternate meal. We encourage our toddlers and preschoolers to serve themselves their own afternoon tea.
Depending on the weather, your child will be offered to play indoors/outdoors for free playtime. This is where educators can make observations of what your child likes to do and prepare for future planned experiences based on interests.
Planned afternoon learning experiences. During this time we will engage your child in activities that are slightly more structured and educator-led. For example, yoga classes, painting lessons, group play and group learning moments.
The Rainforest Room caters for babies. It provides a calm and caring home-like environment with carefully planned learning areas and their own outdoor playground.
The Ocean Room provides our toddlers with a welcoming, inspiring environment and the opportunity to explore and influence their own experiences and learning.

The transition for children into child care is an important milestone for children and families. This transition can be challenging and emotional for both the parent and the child. Therefore, we offer you this information to help the transition process.
We invite families to come for orientation the week before they start: stay in the centre with your child, meet the Educators and make yourself familiar with the routines prior to your child’s first day. This assists you and your children to feel more at ease and comfortable with the new environment.
