Logan Reserve Childcare & Daycare

Providing nurturing early learning opportunities for families near Logan Reserve, welcoming children from 15 months to 5 years.

Starting at 15 Months, When Everything Is New

Our youngest long day care room is built for children who are barely walking and not yet talking much. It is calmer and quieter than the rooms above it, with a slower rhythm, more one-to-one time and educators who learn your child’s cues rather than expecting your child to learn theirs. Sleep, food and comfort routines follow what already works at home, because a toddler settling into care should not also have to adjust to a new way of napping.


Logan Reserve families join us from 15 months and stay right through to the kindy year.

Open Early Enough to Make It Work

The centre is at 5 Trebeck Street in Browns Plains, north from Logan Reserve. It is the longest run of any suburb we serve, and worth being honest about: families come to us for the program and the hours, not because we are the closest option. Doors open at 6am and close at 6pm, there is on-site parking, and the rooms open onto shaded outdoor areas.

What our families say…

Outstanding Care and Support! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"My child was initially quite shy and sensitive to new environments, but the educators at Ancora Kids Browns Plains have been incredible. Their care, patience, and skill in supporting each child truly stand out. Since starting, my son has grown so much in confidence—he now comes home singing songs and excitedly talking about what he learned during group time. I'm so proud of his progress and couldn't be happier with the nurturing and enriching environment Ancora provides. Highly recommend!"
Exceeded All Expectations! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"My grandson is enrolled in the 2024 kindy program, and I couldn’t be more pleased. The staff at Ancora Kids Browns Plains are absolutely amazing—friendly, welcoming, and genuinely committed to the well-being of each child. In just a few months, my grandson has developed wonderful social skills and learned so much. The centre is always clean and well-maintained, and the educational program is broad, engaging, and clearly supports early learning. I highly recommend this centre—they’ve truly exceeded all my expectations!"
Thank You for Everything! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"We’ve absolutely loved our time at Ancora. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, our family is relocating and our son will no longer be attending. Over the past several months, the support, care, and dedication from the Ancora team has been nothing short of amazing. You've helped our son grow in so many ways—socially, emotionally, and developmentally—and we are beyond grateful for the nurturing environment you've provided. We're genuinely heartbroken to be leaving such a wonderful centre, but we’ll always carry the warm memories with us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You truly rock, Ancora!"
A Wonderful Place for Our Daughter ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I just want to express my heartfelt appreciation to all the staff at Ancora Kids Browns Plains. Since joining the Oasis class, my daughter has absolutely loved her time at the centre—she even wants to go on the weekends! It’s been so rewarding to see her come home happy, excited, and full of new things she’s learned each day. The positive impact Ancora Kids has had on her development is clear, and we’re so grateful for the love and care she receives from her educators."
Truly Grateful for the Amazing Educators ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Our appreciation for the team at Ancora Kids Browns Plains goes a long way. You've always been so helpful, supportive, and professional. While every teacher at the centre is fantastic, I just want to say how honoured we are to have such dedicated and caring educators supporting our child. The kindness and effort you put into your work have made such a positive impact, and we’re truly grateful."

Health & wellbeing

We use play, song and stories to develop essential skills and teach children about health, hygiene and self-care. This includes choosing and making healthy meals, bathing, dressing, hair care, toileting and toothbrushing.

Community

We build a sense of community by fostering friendships, providing support to families, and through family involvement. The kids engage with the community through local schools, aged-care centres and other activities.

Growth

Our centre helps children grow their kindness, empathy and emotional awareness and regulation. They gain real-life, hands-on experience, physical development such as balance and motor skills.

Sustainability

Young people play an important role in caring for the environment. Our vegetable garden teaches children about food cycles and choices, and marked bins help them learn about sustainable waste management.

Meet Our Educators

Ms. Liesl – Centre Director

 

I am Liesl, the current director at Ancora Kids Browns Plains. I have been working in the centre for 5 years. My qualifications include: Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care

 

As director at Ancora Kids, I am passionate about creating holistic, nurturing environments where children feel empowered to explore, grow, and thrive. At the heart of our philosophy are the values of Empathy, Compassion, and GRIT—Growth, Resilience, Integrity, and Tenacity. I believe that when children are supported with love, respect, and opportunity, they demonstrate remarkable resilience, curiosity, and potential.
My teaching approach is inspired by a blend of Montessori and Steiner philosophies. I value providing hands-on, real-life learning experiences that build independence and practical skills, while also fostering creativity through play-based and imaginative exploration. I also embrace the importance of early exposure to STEAM learning and second language development as vital tools for the future.
I see families as a child’s first and most important teachers. Building strong, respectful partnerships with parents helps create a safe and connected learning environment, where every child feels a strong sense of belonging. My goal is to nurture children’s emotional, social, and cognitive development, supporting them in becoming confident, compassionate individuals ready for the next stage of their journey.
At Ancora Kids, I am proud to lead a team that values reflective practice, continuous learning, and a shared commitment to preparing children today, for a better tomorrow.
