About Allison Crescent Early Education Centre Menai
Our centre is in the heart of the Menai business district. We take advantage of our prime location and love getting involved in our local community. We enjoy walking excursions to Parc Menai, the library and the local bushland reserve. The children also visit our garden plot at 3 Bridges Menai Community Centre. We tend to our herbs and veggies, as well as the compost and worm farm.
Families value our large, modern and well-resourced outdoor spaces. This is one of the biggest childcare playgrounds in the local area. Our grassed area provides opportunities for group games and yoga sessions. A covered deck enables all-weather outdoor play and crafts.
Climbing, balancing, running and trikes promote balance and motor skills. Our art space and large sandpit encourages creativity and imagination. Natural landscapes allow exploration as well as peaceful spots to relax in. The children love to garden. They pick veggies and herbs, and even make fresh lemonade!
Our Educators are warm, nurturing and experienced. We’re a culturally diverse team who love sharing cooking experiences, language, music and dance with the children.
Inclusion is a big part of what we do. We establish lasting partnerships with families. Our goal is for everyone to feel like they belong. We welcome and encourage parents’ ideas and contributions to our learning program to help us reflect every child’s voice and interests.

I am happy to share my experience with Allison Crescent Early Education Centre, Menai, regarding the exceptional care and treatment of my two children. From the moment we enrolled, it was evident that the long-term educators truly care about the well-being and development of each child. I have had a consistently good experience with the Sutherland Council Services, both Caldarra in Engadine and AC in Menai, not to mention the exceptional customer service at Sutherland Council. The staff are not only professional but also genuinely friendly, creating a warm and welcoming environment that puts me at ease. They take the time to get to know each child individually, which has made a significant difference for my sensitive daughter. I have observed educators supporting the preschool children with pre-kindergarten learning, their focus on early literacy and numeracy skills along with social development is creating a solid foundation for future learning. This happens in small group settings as well as 1:1 instruction. Additionally, the educators have been wonderful with my young son, providing him with the attentive care and stimulation he needs at this stage of his development. It’s reassuring to know that he is in such capable hands. I am always seeing the appropriate staff to children's ratios and the director is often on the floor helping out with transitions and the morning rush. As a parent, I understand that many of us feel stressed and worried about trusting childcare services, especially with recent media coverage highlighting huge concerns in the sector. However, I can confidently say that the Centre's director Nicole goes above and beyond to ensure parents feel their children are safe and well cared for. Her open communication and commitment to transparency provide invaluable peace of mind. Overall, I cannot recommend Allison Crescent enough. The dedication and kindness of the educators, along with Nicole's leadership, shine through in everything they do, making it a fantastic place for children to learn and grow.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Allison Cresent. From the very first day, our family has felt truly welcomed and supported. The educators are not only kind and caring but also incredibly dedicated to the children’s learning and well-being. It’s clear that they love what they do, and it shows in the way they interact with the children every day. Our children have built such strong bonds with their educators, one of our children is now at primary school and still loves to visit to pick up her little sister. The staff take the time to get to know each child individually, making sure they feel valued and encouraged in their growth and development. As parents, it’s such a comfort to see our child excited to go to daycare each morning. We highly recommend Allison Cresent to any family looking for a loving and supportive place for their children to learn and grow.
