About Ascolta Early Learning and Care - Southern River

Welcome to Ascolta Early Learning & Care Southern River, where our name embodies our commitment to listening and nurturing young minds. Derived from the Italian verb "ascoltare," meaning to listen, Ascolta represents our dedication to creating an environment where children's voices are valued and amplified.

In our community, every child is embraced as a unique individual, with their intellectual and emotional development personally guided and supported. Our learning spaces are intentionally designed to foster reflective inquiry-based learning, providing a platform for children to explore, discover, and grow in a happy, secure, and engaging environment.

At Ascolta, our passionate educators are not just teachers but attentive listeners, actively tuning in to each child's learning journey. Through personalized attention and encouragement, we empower children to build confidence and cultivate a lifelong love of learning.

We believe in the power of play as a fundamental aspect of childhood development and learning. By embracing the joy and creativity of play, we celebrate the diversity and individuality of every child under our care.

Join us at Ascolta Early Learning & Care Southern River, where listening is at the heart of everything we do, and every child is cherished and supported on their journey of growth and discovery.

    My granddaughter has been going to Ascolta since October last year I find they are very caring kind ladies . My Granddaughter who is 3 loves going on Fridays now I am going to book her in for a second day.

    The girls here really go above and beyond and work with you to support you and your children. I am so grateful to have them as a part of our extended family and our children are just flourishing in their care. They always have an open door policy if we have any concerns and are so prompt in implementing anything required.

    Response to comment at bottom of review! Absolutely awful experience. It was my child’s first time in daycare and the carers kept calling me to pick him up ‘because it’s too hard to change other kids nappies when your kid is crying’, he never stayed a full day because they kept calling me. My child would cry and cling to me at drop off and the carers would just walk past and ignore us without offering help. When speaking to the center manager I said ‘I feel like no one cares that he’s struggling’ her response was ‘Do NOT think about Ascolta that way’. Didn’t care to ask why I feel that way or look in to the issues. We received no support and no help. If this is what was going on in front of me, I’m horrified to think what happened when I was gone. Have since gone to another center and it is a completely different experience. I would rate them zero if I could. Editing to respond to comment: we were most definitely enrolled, I still have my enrollment pack. I don’t intend on providing more details as my review is solely to warn others, also as mentioned below I did speak directly to the manager and I got scolded for speaking openly. Also it’s kind of convenient that you “can’t find the accounts” for every bad review you get but can find the good ones?? Dont paint me out to be a liar, it’s not a good look for your company.

    Hi Kristen Unfortunately we do not have any enrolments that match the username you’ve used to review us. Could we please ask you contact us directly and provide more details so we can investigate further? We appreciate all feedback and you can provide this via email to admin@ascoltaelc.com.au. Kind regards, The Team at Ascolta Early Learning & Care
