Meet Zach, our Dubbo Centre Manager
My name is Zach Fitzgerald, I’m the Nominated Supervisor for Fitzroy Street.
I’ve been with Nature’s Academy for almost two years, starting as our Educational Leader and moving into the NS role in March ’26. I moved to Dubbo in 2016, having previously worked as a Case Worker in the Foster Care and Community Services sectors. This work developed my appreciation for the local area and the key role it plays in supporting families raising children.
I believe making genuine and meaningful connections with the Dubbo community is the key to our service thriving, and I respect our parents and family groups as our most valuable learning resource.
I love working hand-in-hand with nature, which forms the basis for our unique educational opportunities. This supports our families in raising safe, kind and socially conscious community members.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enrol my child at Nature's Academy Dubbo Fitzroy St?
Start by submitting your enquiry using the form on this page. We’ll walk you through availability, arrange a centre tour, and guide you through every step of the enrolment process from there.
What ages does Nature's Academy cater for?
We welcome children from six weeks through to six years of age. Our centre is designed with dedicated rooms for each stage — Nursery (0–2), Toddler (2–3), Preschool (3–4), and Kindergarten (4–5) — so your child is always with peers at a similar stage of development.
Is the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) available at this centre?
Yes — Nature’s Academy Orange is an approved CCS provider. Most families are eligible for government support through Services Australia. To estimate what you may receive, visit the Services Australia CCS estimator. Our team can also help you understand what to expect when you book a tour.
What's included in the daily care?
Everything is included — nutritious meals and snacks, nappies, wipes, sunscreen, yoga sessions, and excursions. We believe families shouldn’t have to think about extras, so our care is genuinely all-inclusive from the moment your child arrives to the moment they leave.
How does the settling-in period work for new children?
We take settling in seriously. Every new child begins with a gradual introduction — starting with a short visit together, then building up over a few sessions. Educators keep in close communication with parents throughout, so you always know how your child is feeling and settling.
Is there parking near the centre?
We’re located at 252–256 Fitzroy Street, Dubbo. Street parking is available on Fitzroy Street and surrounding streets. If you’re unsure about access, feel free to call us on (02) 6882 6187 before your first visit and we’ll point you in the right direction.
