What's included in our fees

We want our families to enjoy life to the fullest, and take the guesswork out of daycare fees and extras. Therefore, we include everything your child needs for a happy, enriching day, with no surprise extras or hidden add-ons.

We’re more than a childcare— we’re a place where families feel at home

Our fees and inclusivities

Choosing childcare is a big milestone— for both you and your little one. Here’s a look at our daily fees and how they support your child’s well-being, learning, and growth.

Nursery fees and inclusivities

At Enrich, our educators respond to each baby’s unique cues, follow personalised routines, provide meaningful one-on-one moments throughout the day, and deliver the high-quality care your family deserves.

To make this possible, our Nursery room operates with a higher staffing level than the National Regulations require. While the standard educator-to-child ratio is 1:4, we maintain 1 educator for every 3–3.5 children.

More educators means more presence, more connection, and more peace of mind—knowing your child is receiving truly individualised care.

We are truly grateful to the entire team at Enrich for the wonderful care, support, and learning environment they provided for our son. During his time there, we saw tremendous growth in his confidence, social skills, and overall development. The educators are incredibly kind, patient, and dedicated. They create a nurturing atmosphere where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to explore and learn. Our son built strong bonds with both his teachers and friends, and even after moving to a new place, he still fondly remembers his time at Enrich. As parents, it gave us great peace of mind knowing our child was in such caring and capable hands. We truly appreciate all the effort and love the team puts into each child’s journey. We highly recommend Enrich to any parent looking for a supportive and enriching early learning environment.

Enrich Early Learning has been absolutely amazing for our family. Our daughter has been attending since she was 5 months old and is now almost 2, and the care she receives is incredible. The educators truly love and care for the children like their own. They provide nutritious, healthy meals and even supply nappies and wipes, which makes things so much easier for parents. What really stands out is how much Enrich cares about not just the children, but the whole family, with beautiful events that include parents and grandparents. We are so grateful to be part of such a loving and supportive centre and couldn’t recommend Enrich Early Learning more highly ❤️

We’ve had our three children at Enrich for a bit under two years now - our four year old daughter and our two year old twins - and honestly, watching them grow here has been one of the most reassuring parts of parenting. They’ve absolutely blossomed. They’re more confident, more expressive and have a stronger sense of emotional intelligence and regulation. It’s been really special seeing them come out of their shells and build independence in a way that still feels gentle and safe. The carers and educators are just lovely. Warm, welcoming, consistent and genuinely caring. From day one, we’ve felt that our children are known and valued as little people, not just “kids in a room”. We’ve never once questioned whether they’re in the right hands, because the level of care and attentiveness is so clear. We’ve been through three other daycares in Brisbane before moving down here, and we didn’t see the same truly “children-first” approach. Here, the focus is on the children’s happiness and emotional wellbeing, alongside building their socio-emotional skills and independence. It feels fun, connected and intentional, not box-ticking. With our daughter starting school next year, we couldn’t be more confident in the foundational skills she is gaining to take with her on her learning journey. We recommend this daycare to friends and family all the time, and we’ll absolutely keep doing so!

It was great to read our toddler’s portfolio at the end of the year. We truly appreciate the care and intention the team shows in focusing on strengths, documenting progress and sharing these moments with us parents. This kind of communication reassures us that our child is in a nurturing and responsive environment where her cognitive, social and emotional development are really supported. It means a lot to see specific examples of kindness, cooperation and growing independence being noticed and celebrated.​ Once again, a huge thank you to the team for the great work being done for our little ones.

I cannot speak highly enough of Enrich Kindergarten. The educators are truly loving, caring, and incredibly nurturing with every child. You can see they pour their whole hearts into what they do, and it shows in the way the children feel safe, supported, and genuinely happy. I feel so grateful knowing my son is in such a supportive and compassionate environment. Finding a kindergarten like this has been such a blessing for our family. Highly recommend. 💛

Our children have absolutely thrived at Enrich. The educators show such genuine care and take the time to understand each child’s unique personality and needs. We’re so grateful for the love, patience, and support they’ve given our children as they grow and learn each day. We appreciate you all.

My wife and I are so grateful to have found Enrich. As first time parents we did plenty of research on what an early education centre should be able to offer in this day and age. And frankly we felt like we were setting the bar a little bit high for ourselves and our daughter. Emotional support, balanced play based learning, nappies and meals, nurturing and caring educators who love their job, a focus on advancing fine motor skills, social and academic growth, and a play space with peers that welcome and excite our child to the centre. The list goes on. We quickly realised that Enrich offers everything we expected, plus so much more. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming and every time I see them, see my daughter, we feel a genuine sense of connection, friendship and desire to interact. Ellen and her team have built something truely inspiring. Within weeks of attending we saw our daughter Starting to grow and learn, bringing home knowledge, understanding, and patience. At first, like any child she was hesitant and cautious to leave our embrace, but the educators especially (nursery), as well as reception staff, chefs, all inclusive, have done a masterful job of ensuring that our daughter has a safe, fun and inviting space where she is now happy to walk her self in, blow a kiss and see us out the door so she can go about her day, like a real life little human. The centre also offers a (free to use) social app which gives updates on the children’s learning, daily meal schedules (and if and what portion of each meal they ate) sleep times, nappy changes, as well as photos of our little beloved throughout that day, engaging learning and playing with her peers. This is a detail I especially love, really helping myself and mum get through our days away from our darling knowing with certainty that she is well fed (and I mean WELL FED! we get jealous of some of the menu options) rested and having fun. Of late, our daughter has had medical issues, including (suspected) Febrile seizures. The latest of which happened in centre, as my wife was dropping my daughter off for daycare. Completely overwhelmed, as any parent would be, my wife was stricken with an overwhelming sadness and uncertainty on what to do in those crucial moments. The team however snapped straight into action, taking steps and precautions to ensure that the episode was as safe and calm as possible. Educators immediately contacted emergency services while others cleared the area of possible hazards, and when safe to do so, placed her into recovery position, all the while, and perhaps most importantly in the moment, kept my wife (as) calm as they could, offering reassurance, compassion and understanding given the circumstances. After speaking to my wife and staff, as I personally was not present, I was so happy and greatful to hear of the way in which everybody involved in such a confronting event handled themselves with poise and certainty. After the event there was a post on the centres app informing other parents that there was a medical episode, and that emergency services were called to the centre. This was done with anonymity in mind, while also addressing and understanding that these things can be distressing for parents and children alike to see. Although no other child was present in the area where my daughter had her episode, they were all outside playing, unaware, it was good to see that the centre addressed the situation and made all parents aware that something had happened. All in all we are so incredibly happy with Enrich, and we will recommend to absolutely anyone in the area who is looking for Early education.

It took a long time for my daughter to fully settle in, but I’m so glad we chose this daycare. I love the friendly staff, calming essential oil filled rooms, Montessori method of education, and also the app for communication between educators and parents. They spoil us with extravagant Christmas/Easter/Mother’s/Father’s day events. Food and nappies are all included. Lots of parking. Just so grateful for all the amazing educators who have been supportive during potty training and reassuring us after we drop-off our daughter.

Dear Megan and Ellen, Thank you for easing Eleanor's (and our) transition into the daycare universe. We appreciate your dedication and guidance. We looked at several other daycare centres before finding Enrich and couldn't be happier with our choice. We trust not only both of you but all of your amazing staff. Thank you!

The staff members provide exceptional care and love, creating a nurturing environment that truly makes a difference. I am incredibly grateful to the management for their unwavering support throughout this journey of parenthood. Thank you for making this experience so positive for both me and my child!
