The best thing I ever did for my son was enrol him here! When my son started he wasn't meeting communication milestones, and his social behaviour was well.. not very social. Within the first 6 weeks myself and the educators noticed a huge leap in his behaviour and communication, now he's smashing his milestones. And as a sole parent who works full time the structure of the education centre and its operating hours are perfect, and the fact that everything is provided except the obvious (nappy cream , water bottle, change of clothes and a bed sheet) it really takes a load off my shoulders. My son loves all the staff there. My eldest daughter also attended there and the preschool program is incredible, my daughter came home naming planets, learning about recycling, all sorts of things that i didnt think she would get to engage in until school. I'm looking to enrol my youngest in the next few weeks. I can't fault the centre. The director is fantastic, very approachable and communicative and the staff are incredible. Cannot fault them.
Response from the owner15 days agoThank you Teanna-Lee for such an amazing and heartfelt review. It’s wonderful to hear how much progress your son has made since starting, and how supported you’ve felt as a working parent. We're so pleased that both your children have had such enriching experiences through the programs and care provided. Your kind words about the team and director mean a lot! We’re thrilled to be part of your family’s journey and look forward to welcoming your youngest soon!

I was a little worried about putting my kid in childcare as a first time mum but since my daughter has started here, she has grown more confident and caring. She learns so much every week and not to mention the communication and organisation of this daycare from teacher to parent is definitely something that they’re on top of. The centre is pretty inviting as you walk in and seems well looked after throughout!

Do not recommend! Our journey wasn’t great as much as some the staff tried, they couldn’t keep good staff because I believe at the organisation level the upper upper management didn’t support the good staff enough to stay.
Response from the ownerover 2 years agoWe’re sorry to hear that Rachel. It’s a shame you left the centre in March as you haven’t been able to the positive changes we have made and the strong team we have in place.
