Our Learning Environments
Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:
- Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.

Creative Garden has some beautiful staff who have made a huge difference for my little one (and for me as a mum!). Jess, Hannah, and Phoenix especially have been absolute gems, always making my daughter feel safe, loved, and excited to go to childcare. They keep me updated on how her days go, and I never have the dreaded drop-off tears, which honestly makes the whole working mum juggle so much easier. The activities are always age-appropriate, and I can see my daughter learning and growing every week, which gives me real peace of mind. I also really appreciate that they listen when I have concerns and genuinely make me feel welcome to be part of her learning space (even when I turn up on my holidays to help out!) There are still a few things that could be improved centre-wide, so I’ve rated 4 stars, but I’m really grateful for the wonderful team who make my daughter’s days so positive

We’ve had such a wonderful experience at Creative Garden with our daughter. She was quite attached in the beginning, so drop-offs were a little challenging, but Sam, Carolina, and Erin went above and beyond to help her feel safe, special, and loved. We’re so grateful for the genuine care you’ve shown our little one. Thank you for everything, you’re truly appreciated!
Response from the owner12 days agoDear Nicola, Thank you so much for your amazing 5-star review! We’re delighted that you have had such a wonderful experience. It’s wonderful to know that our dedication is making a positive impact on your family. Warm wishes, The Creative Garden Team

Worst centre. I had my twins in this centre for two months and had to early picked them up 6 times. Three times diarrhea( ate the centre sands and dirty water), two times for red eyes( got from the centre) and one time for wormed stool(the first day was fine at home, the second day they got sick). They have been kids club for 10 months and jarcarada child care center for 6 months. All these problems didn’t happen. The center needs to be cleaned up properly. The staffs should take more care about the children. The twins even got serious bitten to bleeding by the other kids twice, it means no one watches them. They got ants bites for both legs almost every day. When I picked them up, they were crying badly by themselves over 5 times, no one cared about them. They are just 23 months old.

We absolutely love our experience with Creative Garden Early Learning Centre Coombabah! The environment is always welcoming, and the staff are genuinely caring and attentive. My son looks forward to going each day, which speaks volumes. The teachers are wonderful-so kind, patient, and supportive with the kids. They create such a fun and nurturing space to learn and grow. l've also been especially impressed with the new manager; she's been a fantastic addition. Her leadership, warmth, and professionalism really shine through, and it's clear she's passionate about what she does. I couldn't be happier with the care and support my son receives here. Highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe and loving environment for their child!
