As first-time daycare parents, we were naturally nervous about how our baby, Boris, would adjust to a brand new environment. But from the very first day, the incredible team at Dashing Ducks made the transition feel seamless—for him and for us. The love, patience, and genuine care you’ve shown Boris have meant the world to our family. You treated him like one of your own, creating a warm, nurturing space where he has felt safe, happy, and curious. Thank you for welcoming Boris with open arms and hearts. Your support during this important time in his early life has left a lasting impact. We’re so grateful for the beautiful start you’ve given him. 💫

We’re so grateful to have found Dashing Ducks Castle Hill for our son. We were initially a bit unsure about how he would cope with the transition to a new centre, but the educators made the process incredibly smooth and reassuring. Our son now loves going to daycare—he even asks to go on the weekends! The quality of the daily updates and photos is outstanding, and we’re consistently impressed by the creativity and effort that goes into the activities and resources provided each day. Every morning at drop-off and every afternoon at pick-up, we’re warmly welcomed and kept well informed about how his day went. I would absolutely recommend Dashing Ducks Castle Hill to any parent looking for a nurturing, well-organised, and inspiring early learning environment.
