Sandy has been amazing at settling our son into daycare. He’s developed such a lovely bond with her. Would recommend this daycare centre. I am always kept updated through their portal what my child is up to and given a verbal handover during pick up. Overall I’m incredibly happy with children’s first

As a first time Dad I was very nervous at first about leaving my daughter in the care of other people. However since day one I have been put at ease by the communication, care and kindness of all of the staff. Lastly and more importantly my daughter lights up with a smile when I drop her off of a morning. Big love to the team at Children First South Hobart.

My daughter has been at Children First since she was about 1 year old. We have had good experiences there and my daughter has developed well with great language and creative skills and learned positive social skills. The centre is modern with good facilities. The children get the opportunity to participate in activities such as yoga, and learning about body autonomy. There are also fun dress up days for book week or pyjama day. The children get to make presents for their families and my daughter delighted in giving me a Mother’s Day gift she had made herself at the centre. My daughter got to help Sam the Director in the office when she was having a bad day and it really pleased her, as she loves helping with tasks. She loves Cherie one of her Educators and talks about her at home in a positive way.

My husband and I are very happy that we selected this centre as our twin toddlers’ first ‘school’ not only with their lovely facilities but also with all of the Tiny Tots room educators, Nancy, Abner, and Vivi. My separation anxiety was overcome thanks to their friendly and caring supporting towards our twins. can’t thank them enough every time I see our bubs happy to go to centre and thriving day by day. Thanks to Abner to become Ronny and Gigi’s favourite teacher ;) also highly appreciate the great learning resources and framework that admin team provide.
