Nursery team have been so kind and patient during our time adjusting to care. They have done an enormous effort to get to know my son and make him feel comfortable and happy in his new space. Keely has made drop off especially easy and my son seems to really like her. Ash & Maggie’s communication has been great on pickup and they create such a fun environment with loads of music & outdoor play. Couldn’t ask for a better Nursery team.

Since meeting the team at Community Kids some 7 years ago, I’ve been nothing short of impressed with their commitment and care of my children. My second child is currently in the three kinder room and he loves his educators and friends. The team are communicative and consistent in their care. They also support the wider community and encourage our kids to think of others which I love. I’ve recommended Community Kids Chirnside to many friends.

Our daughter started at Community Kids at 6 months of age. The team there have been absolutely wonderful, they made the transition back to work an easy one. We cannot recommend this service more, management is wonderful and the educators passionate, professional and ever so caring. We are extremely grateful that Ava attends such a beautiful service.
