    BEST center in Hobart! Highly recommended!! We arrived to Tasmania in March and we struggled to find a childcare for my 15months daughter. Luckily I called this center and it turned out they had the vacancy for that age (all other centers had 1.5year waiting lists!!!). I was upset at first with the long drives but now even being offered the spots in nearby centers i am simply passing. I would not change the center for any other! My daughter has been loving Children First SH since her first day there, even though it was her first childcare ever.. Big thanks to the staff Nancy, Abner, Isala, Praati and others who have given so much compassion, focus, patience and humour to make my daughter feel safe and happy.. My daughter has learnt yoga, songs, dance and many others. She also started socialising with other children thanks to the Educators who knew how to approach it.. There is no better feeling for a working mother than knowing that her daughter is safe and happy and in good hands 😊. 10/10 Plus email/app communication - always in a timing manner šŸ‘ Thanks Sam and others!!

    My son attends Children First South Hobart. It took him a few months to settle as this was his first time away from his parents and grandparents. His teachers were very supportive to both my son and us as parents during the transition. He now asks for his teachers and friends by name over the weekend. I love the daily updates of what the children were up to. I can see the development in my child’s physical, emotional and mental abilities. His confidence to play and engage with other children as enhanced. We want to move areas but considering to stay so he remains where he is happy at Children First.

    Our experience with Children First Early Education has been wonderful. The educators show genuine care and commitment when looking after the children at their centre. Our boy enjoys being at their daycare, he is great in painting & drawing, he also loves cars & trucks, outdoor play & animals, and the educators observed these interests as well. As a parent, it gives me peace of mind that the educators know my son’s personality and interests. I see it as a sign of commitment in providing high standard of early learning. Thank you to all the educators & administrative staff for your dedication. 5 stars & highly recommend them! - Mrs.Sabile
