Our family has been apart of the Una community for almost 2 years now and we have nothing but the highest praise to sing for the centre. Every morning every child is welcomed (by name) by every educator who they come into contact with. We especially love that our children are given the opportunity to learn and grow in nature. The centre is filled with warmth and a place for kids to be kids.

The staff and director are lovely, approachable, and easy to communicate with. I feel confident leaving my two sons here knowing they’re safe and cared for while I’m at work.

Una has become a home away from home for my daughter who has been going there since she was 5 months and is now 2. She adores all of the educators and absolutely loves her daycare days. The director is amazing and we know she is in safe hands at Una.

Una Albany Creek has the most amazing, kind, thoughtful staff, many of whom are long term. I can't be more grateful to have educators caring for my daughter who just love her for who she is. The educators and management team are mostly all long term staff and they have made a supportive place for our little ones. Words don't describe how grateful I am. Thank you!!

We have been at Una since January 2022 with our daughter (who has now gone to school) and our son started there this year. We absolutely love the centre and the wonderful staff who work there. Mel and her team go above and beyond to provide exceptional care for our little one and offer so many extra activities and learning opportunities focused on their areas of interest. There is always something new and fun for them to explore and the playground and rooms have undergone a recent refurb and look great. Communication is always prompt and you are really made to feel at home and comfortable leaving your child there. We can’t thank them enough for all that they have done for our family and for helping our little ones thrive.

We absolutely love UNA Albany Creek! From the moment we walked in, we felt so welcomed and supported. The staff are truly exceptional — warm, nurturing, and incredibly dedicated to the wellbeing and development of every child.

My girls are absolutely thriving here! It’s such a joy to see how much they are learning, growing, and most importantly, how happy they are each day. The educators take the time to truly get to know each child and create such a positive, engaging environment that feels like a second home.

I couldn’t be more grateful for the team at UNA Albany Creek. The care, love, and passion they bring to the centre every single day makes all the difference. Thank you for everything you do — we feel so lucky to be part of the UNA family!

FAQs

What is the atmosphere at Una Albany Creek like?

As soon as you enter our childcare centre in Albany Creek, you’ll notice something unique. Because we make sure each child at Una feels emotionally comfortable and engaged in our learning activities, our centres tend to feel calm and focussed. We encourage children to be respectful of each other, explore diversity and social messages, and help children understand what’s fair.

Inside each classroom, there are caring and nurturing Educators guiding the children on a learning adventure. We encourage you to visit and experience it yourself!

Tell me more about your specialised learning experiences.

Our learning programs are a terrific stepping stone for your child’s development and future schooling. They are designed to help socially and emotionally prepare children for school. We offer many creative learning activities, including music lessons, Spanish language classes (taught by a native speaker), and a visual arts program. These specialised experiences are included in the childcare service at no extra cost.

At Una Albany Creek, music lessons are on Monday and Thursday mornings for all age groups. Spanish lessons are on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings for Junior Kindy, Pre Kindy and Kindergarten. The arts program is embedded within our curriculum for all ages and our Artist in Residence attends the Centre each term to work with our Kindergarten age groups to further enhance their creative learning.

What should my child wear?

In order to engage in activities it is important that children are dressed in clothes that allow them to be comfortable as well as being free to experience all activities available. When dressing children for our childcare centre, please consider that clothes (including footwear) should be:

suitable for messy play ie able to get dirty/stained;
allow children to be comfortable and provide free movement in both the indoor and outdoor environments;
easy for children to remove and put on to support self-help skills;
suitable for weather conditions;
sun safe;
safe for running, jumping and climbing;
free of hoods, drawstrings and cords as these can be a potential choking hazard;
clearly named.

What if my child requires medication whilst at the Centre?

Medication is able to be administered to a child whilst at the Centre provided that the requirements outlined in our Medication policy are met.

Do you close throughout the year and how long for?

No, we are open 52 weeks a year and only closed on weekends and public holidays.

When will my child move rooms?

As your child grows and develops at Una, there will be a need to transition into the next age group. Your child’s readiness for such a move will be discussed with you and your child will transition gradually into their new room. Each child’s transition phase is different and we are guided by the child as to the time required for them to gain a sense of belonging in their new room.

Will I be able to visit my child during the day at any time?

Yes, we have an open door policy and families are welcome to visit at any time. We do also have special events planned throughout the year where families are invited to participate. Ie Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Grandparents Day, Occupations week.
