Visiting a kindergarten you are considering will tell you a lot about the atmosphere, activities, facilities and how the staff interact with you and your child. This will help you decide whether the kindergarten is a good fit for your child.
If your child already goes to a child care centre they may run information sessions for parents about their kindergarten programs.
Most kindergartens welcome enquiries and will organise a time for you to visit.
