    Having enrolled our children at a number of childcare/ kindergartens over the years, my wife and I have found Friendship Square to be by far the best centre for our children. As an industry, staff turnover can be a challenge, however we have found that the staff at Friendship Square (many who have been there for years) go above and beyond for our children - making them feel safe and secure in their environment. We often chat to the staff at drop off and pick up and you can tell they really care about your children. The kinder program is excellent and sets the children up really nicely heading into school. Our children have needed extra support at times and the staff have done a great job at actively supporting their development. Having an onsite cook is also a huge point of difference - the children receive healthy nutritious home made meals unlike other centres where we felt salty snags were being served up several times a week.

    Friendship square has become our family. Our 2 children have been so well cared for and understood at this centre. The small rooms means that educators know us and our kids extremely well. The educators and staff genuinely care about and take the time to listen to what we want for them too. Our 2 year old and 5 year old can play together during the day if they want to, which they love. They’re so happy there and it’s been one of the most positive experiences raising our babies so far.
