- Rise & Shine Kindergarten Warner
For families in Brisbane’s northern suburbs, quality childcare in Warner that combines early education with warm, attentive care is exactly what Rise & Shine Kindergarten was built to deliver. Warner is a suburb that takes family life seriously. It’s why so many people move here, and it’s the standard Rise & Shine holds itself to every single day.
This is a centre that was built because Rise & Shine believes every community deserves access to early learning that’s excellent, not just adequate. The Shine Advantage™ curriculum, the Care+ infant approach, the onsite meals, and the Orbit STEM program – none of it is an add-on. It’s the standard.
And it’s what northern Brisbane families find when they walk through the door of our Warner Kindergarten.
Rise & Shine Warner is open Monday to Friday, 6:30 am–6:30 pm, caring for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. Serving families across Warner, Strathpine, Brendale, and Lawnton. Eligible 4-year-olds can access Free Kindy, and with CCS available on top for additional hours, quality early learning here costs significantly less than most families expect.
Not all early learning centres are the same. The difference at Rise & Shine Warner is visible from the first tour: purposeful rooms, engaged educators, and a program built with intention.
The Shine Advantage™ curriculum is the framework behind every room at our Warner daycare centre. Smart Start builds the academic foundations. Fit develops physical confidence. Inspired drives creativity. Unite and Crew build the social-emotional skills that set children up for school and life.
It’s a whole-child approach, and it runs from the Nursery through to the Kindergarten Program, with each element adapted to where children actually are developmentally.
Babies in the Nursery benefit from the Care+ approach: one consistent primary educator, low ratios, and a predictable daily structure that builds security and trust. Kindy children access excursion and events through Kindy+ and the Orbit STEM program for hands-on science and discovery. Families are kept in the loop every day through the OWNA parent app, with photos and real-time updates.
Rise & Shine Kindergarten is 100% Australian family-owned and operated.
Children who turn 4 on or before 30 June in the year before starting Prep qualify for Queensland’s Free Kindy program, which includes 600 hours of funded kindy per year (15 hours/week across 40 weeks) across approved providers.
Rise & Shine Warner is an approved Free Kindy provider. Eligible families receive the full 600-hour benefit as a direct fee reduction, and our admin team manages the paperwork so you don’t have to.
Free Kindy covers 15 hours per week across 40 weeks. Families enrolling for more hours can use CCS on top, further reducing their out-of-pocket costs.
We are happy and honoured to share some of the many testimonials from the hundreds of happy parents of children enrolled at Rise & Shine Kindergarten.
The best decision I have made is sending my son to Rise & Shine Kindergarten Maroochy River.
We came to R&S having been at a different centre, and the difference in the standard of care, attitude, and principles was immediately obvious. Maroochy River is warm and welcoming with friendly staff and inviting indoor and outdoor play areas.
I cannot speak highly enough of the staff and the quality of care that my son receives. Educators are supportive, professional, and compassionate. Their attention to detail and caring nature really promote an understanding of my sons’ individual needs. They value and encourage input from parents, which allows educators to adapt activities to reflect and further develop my sons’ specific interests. Communication with parents is excellent, with staff providing real-time updates and an overview each afternoon on a user-friendly app.
The strong connection the educators have established, allows my son to thrive and develop within a secure environment. The primary caregiver approach has been fantastic for building genuine relationships and trust, as a parent this gives me reassurance that my son will feel safe and grow into a confident toddler within this supportive setting.
We’re so thrilled to have found Rise & Shine! Thank you for everything you all do for our little family, we truly are grateful for the dedication and support of the Rise & Shine community!
