Redwood Park Early School Fees
Since Nido Early Schools is a government approved childcare provider, you could be entitled to a government subsidy on your fees. The initiative is designed to enable low and middle-income families to access affordable, flexible, and high-quality childcare.
Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is calculated using:
- Your combined family income
- The number of children under five that you have in childcare
- Your level of activity; if you're studying and volunteering, this may work in your favour towards your childcare subsidy
- The childcare provider's hourly rate.

Our fees, before CCS subsidies, are as follows:
| 0-3 Years | Over 3 Years |

Our spaces are designed for clear supervision, and our policies are regularly reviewed to maintain the highest standards. Nothing matters more than creating safe and secure environments where children feel confident, and families place their full trust in our care.
Inspiring Environments
At Nido, every day brings inspiring learning environments for your child to explore- from art in our ateliers and shared meals in our piazzas, to adventures in outdoor spaces with climbing areas, our Nido cars, water play, mature gardens and more. Indoors, children discover places for creativity, imaginative storytelling and quiet corners. Each environment is thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity, nurture imagination and build a connection to nature, helping children develop new skills and healthy habits for life.
Through our partnership with the Tea Tree Gully Council, we enjoy fortnightly nature walks that encourage children to connect with and care for their local environment.
