The Educators have been like family to us, always there to help when our family have been in the UK. We really can’t thank you enough for what you have done for us, taking care of our precious babies, making them feel safe and loved.
Ngala Early Learning and Development Service in Kensington was established in 1971 and has been offering a welcoming and supportive environment for children and their parents for 50 years.
One of the first adopters of an early learning framework, ELDS Kensington is a well resourced centre that provides large home-like environments, where children have plenty of space to explore and play.
ELDS Kensington is a multicultural service where staff can speak 18 different languages. We are approved by the Education and Care Regulatory Unit and adhere to relevant regulations. Places are offered in accordance with the Commonwealth Government guidelines. The guidelines are available from the Commonwealth Government and available online. We are an Approved Care Service with the Family Assistance Office for the Child Care Subsidy.
