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.

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.

Our Vision

We believe every child deserves to feel deeply connected and supported as they grow, explore, and learn. At Daisy Cottage, we want to create a safe environment where each child feels empowered to be themselves, nurtured by our holistic approach to care and wellbeing, and part of a genuine, supportive community.

Our Learning Environments

We're renovating our heritage cottage in Stafford to feel exactly like that: warm, safe and calm, and much more like a home than just a childcare service. Drawing on real experience in development and construction, inside, our environments have been designed with children at the centre of every decision, spaces designed around how a child actually moves, plays and explores.

Our Programs

Every program has a purpose. From babies and toddlers through to our kindergarten program, we take a holistic approach to learning, meeting each child where they are in their own journey, helping them build the confidence to find their voice and giving them the tools they need to succeed as they grow. We're deeply passionate about physical literacy, health and wellbeing too, building habits that last well beyond childhood.

What Makes Daisy Cottage Special

We offer a considered early learning experience, with programs shaped around each child's journey:
  • Thoughtfully Designed Spaces: Every environment is purposefully designed around how a child actually moves, plays, and explores.
  • Nurtured and Cared For: Meals and nappies are included. Our in-house chef prepares balanced, wholesome meals to fuel little minds and bodies, and we supply nappies and everyday essentials too, so every child feels comfortable and looked after.
  • Mindfulness and Yoga: As part of our physical literacy program, we run regular mindfulness and yoga sessions to help children build emotional regulation, body awareness and a sense of calm.
  • Community Minded: Through everything we do, children learn the value of connection and belonging, building compassion for the people and community around them.
  • Closing: This is more than childcare. It's a place for children to grow with purpose.
