Meet Karen,
Karen
Endeavour Hills Centre Director
Hi my name is Karen Tainsh and I’m the Centre Director of Hippity Hop Early Learning Endeavour Hills. I have been in the Early Childhood industry for over 35 years. I also hold my food services certificates and enjoy assisting in the kitchen from time to time. I have three boys of my own who are 31, 29 and 23 and a gorgeous Granddaughter. Early childhood has always been a passion of mine and I began my career early on in running my own family day care. I later went on to own my own centres for a number of years before deciding to sell. After selling my last centre and having a break I decided what I missed the most was the connection with the children and the amazing partnerships you build with the families along the way. That’s when I decided to join the Hippity Hop Early Learning Team and I couldn’t be happier. The team of educators I am lucky enough to work with everyday are some of the most passionate, highly skilled, and genuinely caring individuals I have ever worked with. This assists me greatly with my commitment to providing a high quality service that offers a high level of learning opportunities to all children within our
community.

What Our Clients Say
We’ve been really happy with this Centre. The carer’s have done an amazing job helping our daughter settle in. She went from crying every time we dropped her off to now loving going to day care. We love the environment in the room and the level of care and environment shown by the staff

My Child has always felt like a family. From drop off to pick-ups, the kids are always showered with attention and love. The educators always put in extra effort to ensure the kids’ environment is one that is happy, safe, and educational. They are exceptional in ensuring parents are well informed on what’s happening with their kids and what’s going on in the centre. Overall, this centre is always highly recommended to our family and friends

We moved to this centre earlier this year after hearing such wonderful things about the centre. My children enrolled in both 3yr and 4yr old kindergarten program. We have been delighted with their progress so far. Not only have their educators helped them to feel welcome and valued, but they have exceeded our expectations with their knowledge and commitment to providing our children not only the best care but also a fantastic education

My little one has been attending Hippity Hop in Yarrambat for coming up to 2 years now and I couldn't be happier. As a parent, I feel so fortunate to have found Hippity Hop, I adore the educators who are all so lovely and caring. The atmosphere is so homely, I love the feel and design of the rooms and outdoor play area. My son has excelled both socially and academically since he started there, the carers are all extremely communicative and I love dropping him off and watching all the other kids running over to greet him. It's so heart-warming! I love knowing that while he's away from me, he's being completely taken care of in such a happy and positive environment.

Would highly recommend this childcare, the teachers and staff are very engaging, supportive and caring. I have sent both of my children to this centre, and they have been absolutely amazing with them. I have noticed so much improvement in both my children. I have been so impressed with their programmes and learning techniques especially in the kindergarten room and 3-year-old room. I am completely confident that my child is ready for school with the thanks to all the staff and especially the kindergarten teacher.
