Welcome to Bambino’s Kindergarten Harrington Park! 

We are open from 7:00am to 6:00pm for children from birth to 5 years. As part of our service, we provide nappies, as well as nutritious hot meals for breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack. As we understand that different children have their own dietary requirements, we do not use egg or nut products in the food we prepare and serve.

A Bachelor-qualified teacher forms part of our education team who work together to teach the Early Years Learning Framework, a service utilised by childcare centres across Australia. In addition, we teach the School Readiness program to ensure that each child is prepared with the necessary skills to succeed in junior schooling and beyond.

We believe that all children should be treated equally and respected with regard to their race, culture, gender, religion, socio-economic background, or additional needs. We respect every family’s values and will seek their involvement with our services, so we encourage open communication between parents and our centre.

We would love the opportunity to show you around our centre, so feel free to pop in and say hello or contact our friendly staff to organise a tour. See you soon!

Our centre proudly offers a kindergarten/preschool program to ensure your child is supported for their transition to school every step of the way. With a focus on language, literacy, numeracy, social skills and more your child will become ready for school.

Reviews and Testimonials

See what some of our parents say about our centres:

“I just wanted to say a massive thank you for Mila’s first week at daycare Bambino’s. Each and every staff member has been so lovely and friendly. There has been plenty of photo updates which is fantastic and Mila looks like she is thoroughly enjoying herself. It truly does put my mind at ease while I’m at work so a big thank you!”

“We have been so happy with our introduction to the centre which all began when, at the last minute we called to see if Lily could be squeezed in. We are brand new to the area and had received some concerning feedback about where she was enrolled. Tamsin went to great lengths to get us the days we needed – including calling existing families to see if they still needed their spots. Once we had secured the days we needed we were able to come to the centre and have several orientations – Lily was immediately comfortable with the kind, caring and friendly teachers and I was walked through all the processes and procedures. We really were made to feel very comfortable and welcome here which is priceless when leaving your child in the care of relative strangers.  We are really impressed by the reporting systems in place and the school readiness program sounds very thorough so we are looking forward to the year ahead.”

– Charlotte

“I just want to say thank you so much for all that the team at Bambinos has done for Joel. It’s only been our second week there but we couldn’t be happier. During our first day the girls prepared ‘My First Day’ sheet for us to take home. They didn’t have to do that but they went above and beyond to help us settle in. You have no idea how grateful we are. It felt like a burden has been lifted off our shoulders because it truly feels like we’ve found the right place for Joel. I want to commend the carers in the Lorikeets room, Sarah, Chantelle, Emma and Ellyssa for the wonderful work they are doing. They also managed to get Joel to take a bottle. As far as I’ve been told this is an almost impossible task with a 5-6 month old baby. As Sarah has said, they’ve got the ‘miracle touch’. I don’t doubt that at all! Thanks to Hana as well for taking good care of the expressed breast milk and also the great meals she prepares for Joel. Thanks Tamzen for the wonderful tour. If it wasn’t for the tour, Joel wouldn’t be here today. I would certainly not hesitate to recommend Bambinos Harrington Park to any family looking for daycare for their kids.”

“As an early childhood teacher myself with 13 years experience in the industry I had high standards for a centre for my own children. For a long time my children came with me to my service. However I decided to move them to a new centre due to changes in circumstance and thought it would be good to foster independence  and separation. After a negative experience at another centre I was hesitant and cautious when searching for a service to care for my children. After meeting and talking to the wonderful and friendly educators at Bambinos Harrington park I knew instantly I had found the right place for my kids. They settled in extremely well and have formed close bonds with educators who I trust completely to ensure the best care for my kids. Miss Tamzen is an exceptional leader with a great team who strive to do their best everyday. Not only do I trust my kids and strongly recommend to other friends for their children. A truly wonderful service with caring educators who will go above and beyond everyday.”

– Kaitlyn

“My son was extremely shy and withdrawn. Bambino’s Kindergarten have really taken him under their wing to make him feel comfortable and have helped him make a friend which is amazing. They are open and flexible to your child’s needs. I would highly recommend this service to anyone.”

– Michelle

“I have nothing but praise and admiration for the staff at Bambino’s. The quality of care is exceptional, the staff approachable, kind and friendly. I would recommend this centre to anyone who is searching for quality care….I will truly miss the centre next year when my son goes to school!”

– Belinda

“Both my girls attend Bambino’s and I am extremely pleased with the quality of care, standard of teaching, level of interaction between teaching staff and children and the professionalism of all staff. My girls absolutely love it there and I highly recommend sending your children there.”

– Courtney

“Our two children have attended this service for over 5 years. We could not have asked for better quality care and early education for our children. The staff go above and beyond in so many ways. Special memories of a very special time for our family. We can’t thank them enough!”

– Lisa

“My family has used this daycare service for 6 years, with all three of my children attending the service. They are very warm, welcoming and personal. My children love their caretakers/educators and I feel comfortable and happy leaving them with them. One of my children has a learning disability and the work they have done with him is fantastic, he has developed way beyond what his doctors expected with the help of Bambino’s. They are definitely an extended part of my family and the day we no longer need their service will be very sad.”

– Maria

“I have had two children attend Bambino’s and am extremely pleased with the care that is given. My youngest started when she was just 1 year old, she is starting school next year and I must say I will miss the place and that feeling of security. I know my daughter will miss everyone its like her second home. The caring nature of all the staff including the office staff is incredible. Not enough room here to list the greatness of staff at this kindy. WE WILL MISS THE PLACE.”
