About Us: The Story Behind Ickle Giggles
At Ickle Giggles, we’re passionate about making a difference in the lives of children and their families. Founded by Kellie and Katrina, two dedicated childcare professionals with a shared vision, Ickle Giggles has grown into a trusted name in early years education and care. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful goal: to create a nurturing and inspiring environment where children can thrive, develop, and – most importantly – be happy.
Our History: A Dream Turned Reality
The story of Ickle Giggles began in 2009, when Kellie and Katrina decided to channel their wealth of experience in childcare into creating a setting that prioritises the needs of every child. With backgrounds rooted in early years education and a deep understanding of child development, the duo was determined to establish a space that combines professional excellence with a genuine love for children.
Starting with a modest facility, Ickle Giggles quickly gained a reputation for its warm, welcoming atmosphere and commitment to high-quality care. Over the years, our dedication to fostering happy, healthy, and confident children has seen us grow, both in size and in the breadth of services we offer. Today, we are proud to be a cornerstone of the community, supporting families and laying the foundations for lifelong learning and success.
