About Us
Kin Kin Early Education is a 57-place childcare centre in Murray Bridge catering to the early childhood education and care needs of children ages six weeks to six years. Our early childhood service is located at 228 Adelaide Road, Murray Bridge, SA 5253. We operate extended long daycare hours from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays.
We are a privately owned family business that has been proudly serving the families of Murray Bridge and the surrounding suburbs since 2010. Our longstanding team of professional educators are passionate about providing the highest quality education and care for children.
Our Mission
Our mission is to work with families to create a safe, respectful, and nurturing environment that supports each child’s complete development, sense of wellbeing, and lifelong learning skills.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a warm and inclusive family atmosphere where educators and families form a genuine partnership to deliver the best outcomes for children.
We focus on creating an active learning environment that encourages each child to reach their full potential.
We want all children, regardless of race, gender, ability, social status, or family structure, to participate fully in all aspects of our education and care program.
Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is supported by the view that each child is naturally creative, capable and inquisitive. We know that children learn through play and understand that children are fundamentally motivated to explore and discover the world by actively engaging in experiences that appeal to their interests and also challenge their abilities.
We believe in encouraging children to express themselves and their opinions and allow them to undertake experiences that develop self-sufficiency and self-confidence. Our educators actively listen to each child throughout the day in order to genuinely understand their needs and what is important to them and strive to create a natural flow of interesting activities as well as embrace those quiet times where each child feels safe to seek reassurance.
We promote respect and care for the natural environment and understand the importance of connecting children to the natural world. We believe outdoor education fosters a sense of community and adventure, encourages exploration, and inspires creative minds.
We employ highly qualified educators and empower our educators to continually upgrade their qualifications by providing them ongoing professional development opportunities.
We embed ongoing critical reflection in all areas of our practice by building a culture of enquiry and continuous improvement among our educators. We believe in nurturing a team approach where all our educators are equally respected and valued for their contribution.
