Great childcare. Have 2 of my kids there for a few years, since they were crawling and they both love it. Beautiful and well set up centre with large rooms for the kids, and a great outdoor area with good nature play and great playgrounds (not small upstairs synthetic play area like all the newer centres popping up the past few years). Good healthy yummy food. Early opening and late closing hours. And more importantly most of the educators have been there a long time so knows my kids since they were little (many centres have constant turn-overs). My only gripe is the location is hard to get in and out of, with a one-way service road to Bell St. During peak hour it is very hard to get out and often have to wait ages hopefully for a car to let you out. But the managers can't control their location!

We started sending our daughter here 3 months ago and it was her first time into daycare at the age of 2. So we were both hesitant to how she would settle in. Gemma and her team have done an absolutely fantastic job, walking us through the entire process. Our daughter has blossomed and looks forward to going and I put this down to the staff here. They have been so friendly, nurturing, professional and do such an excellent job. Thanks to the entire team at the center.

Community Kids Pascoe Vale has been part of our villiage for raising our kids for 4 years, and I can't recommend them highly enough. Gemma and the team are so supportive, and the long term tenure of the staff is testament to how good of a centre they are. From supporting my babies when they were first starting out and struggling with separation, to helping my kinder kid learn the ways of the world, I'm so glad we chose community kids.
Response from the ownerabout 2 months agoDear Tegan, Thank you so much for your amazing 5-star review! Weāre delighted that our team are supportive and caring. Itās wonderful to know that our dedication is making a positive impact on your family. Warm wishes, The Community Kids Team

We have had a great experience with Community kids pascoe vale since we started sending our toddler here earlier this year. It was our first time sending her to childcare and they were very reassuring. She took a while to settle in but they were very flexible, let me stay and play with her for as long as she needed, brainstormed ideas to help her settle in and set up play areas with things she liked to do. The educators are great, very caring and communicative.
Response from the ownerabout 2 months agoHello Binaisha, We were thrilled reading your 5-star rating! Knowing that our educators are great and very caring brings us immense joy. Thank you for being a part of our early learning community. Kind regards, The Community Kids Team
