Early Learning & Childcare in Stafford, BrisbaneGrowing with Purpose
At Daisy Cottage, purpose guides everything we do. We're a much-loved early learning centre in Stafford, offering childcare and kindy to families across Brisbane's north, and we're so much more than a daycare. We're a home away from home where every child is understood as deeply as they're loved. Shaped by real paediatric expertise and genuine relationships with every family, we help every child build the confidence to find their voice, because growing with purpose starts from within.
New ownership. New beginnings.
A New Chapter, Growing Together
We’re Kaitlin and Liberte, two childhood friends who grew up making memories together. Now we want to help your children make theirs.
This centre is our shared dream: a place full of joy, warmth and belonging, where every family feels at home from the moment they walk through the door.
It’s a space shaped by real paediatric expertise, a warm, welcoming place for families and a beautiful, supportive environment for our team, so we can all grow with purpose.

How do I claim CCS?
