Nestled in the heart of Mackay, Adeona’s one-of-a-kind childcare centre creates a safe, nurturing, and captivating environment with a calm and inviting atmosphere.

Here we offer a range of child-centered programmes that encourage children to explore and learn. This provides them with the freedom to discover their interests, extend their learning, and form bonds with their peers.

What separates us from other Mackay day care centres is our unique range of programs. This includes a L.O.T.E programme, Auslan sign, music, movement, and self-expression.

Our Mackay day care centre works closely with animals and prioritizes sustainability. We believe that through assisting with day-to-day tasks such as building garden beds, recycling, composting and growing vegetables, children gain the practical skills and confidence to become school-ready.

Our aim is to provide outstanding care and educational programs that empower children to thrive and prepare for the future.

The Adeona Mackay Team

Our daycare in Mackay is home to passionate Educators who are dedicated to providing exceptional care and educational programs that help children thrive. We focus on making every child feel valued and empowered by celebrating their uniqueness, and instilling a sense of belonging within each classroom.

Our team is made up of three registered teachers where continuity is guaranteed in each room. We provide a nurturing environment where children from diverse backgrounds and cultures can learn and grow together, with abundant learning opportunities.

Our passionate team at Adeona’s Mackay childcare centre is committed to ensuring that every child receives the highest standard of care. We work closely with parents to understand each child’s needs and interests, and provide regular updates on their child’s progress.

From engaging in entirely child centred programmes, though to welcoming learners from a variety of different backgrounds and cultures, peers and educators alike have their world opened up and are presented with abundant learning opportunities.

Daily Inclusions in our Mackay Childcare Centre

At Adeona Mackay we make learning another language fun! Our Japanese teacher engages children in fun and interactive bilingual experiences. We also provide the essentials for the day including: 

• Delicious and nutritious morning teas, lunches and afternoon teas

• Hats and sunscreen to ensure sun protection

Communication

Communication is key at Adeona Mackay and as such we use StoryPark, a program where photos, documentation and discussions with Educators can be shared instantly through emails or the easy to use StoryPark app.

Information about the children’s day can also be viewed in your child’s room at the end of the day.

Adeona Podcast

We understand that attending parent information nights is often difficult, however families still want information on theories, research and ideas around raising children as well as specific explanations of the principles and philosophy underpinning Adeona’s practice.

In response to finding a non-contact way to effectively communicate with families, and provide them with the tools and resources they need to better understand and meaningfully engage with their children, the Adeona Podcast: An Early Childhood Journey was born.

Available through our website, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and a host of other platforms, Tracy and Zoe cover a wide range of topics including childcare, childhood development, and parenting with more being added frequently.
