We are so grateful for the wonderful experience our son has had at this daycare center. He joined last year, and from day one, he formed a strong bond with his educators. It's clear to see how much he enjoys going to daycare, and we truly appreciate how dedicated the staff is to his well-being. The educators have been attentive to our requests and have followed his routine, which has made the transition so smooth. Our son is thriving and learning so much, and it’s been a joy to watch. A special shout-out to Christy Lee and her team, who have been exceptional. Christy developed a close bond with our son almost immediately, even when he started part-time before moving to full-time care. We also deeply appreciate the open communication, honest feedback, and the genuine care the team provides. Recently, our son transitioned to Toddler 1, and we're confident that Maria and her team will continue providing the same high-quality care and attention. We couldn’t be happier with our experience so far and look forward to watching our son continue to grow in such a nurturing environment.

This centre is truly exceptional. From the moment you step through the front door, the Center Director Staci and Assistant Director Emma extend a warm welcome and the Admin Tanja is absolutely phenomenal, kind and welcoming. Together, they ensure that each family and child's developmental needs are met and accounts are satisfactory. Staci has set a standard of excellence for going above and beyond with her team. A huge shout out to the whole team at Shaftsbury – every educator and ECT is completely honest, approachable, kindhearted, straightforward, and caring. This centre offers an absolutely amazing program throughout the service. One of my favorite educational programs is their puppets for social and emotional learning. My son struggles with self-regulation and since they have introduced their puppets, his understanding has changed dramatically. My second favorite thing here is their language hour. This centre has a wonderful and unique range of educators from multiple cultures across the world, and Staci and her team use this in the best practice to teach children in each room multiple languages throughout their time here. But there is so much more that this centre does that there isn't enough pages to talk about. I would also like to give a huge shout-out to Priscilla, the cook. Every time I walk into the centre, the aroma is perfect. You can instantly smell the love within the food another amazing thing about Priscilla and Staci is they create an incredible opportunity to connect with each family and explore the menu together.

Really great team here looking after our little boy. Always clean, professional and friendly. Love getting the updates on storypark too so we can see how he's going during the day! 😁

Don't send your kids here, they overcharge the child care subsidy and lie to the government, they don't refund money when they make mistakes, a year later and still no refund. My daughter never found enjoyment here and I felt that she was deprived from doing activities; all while she picked up bad habits and swearing. They never made her feeel welcome and almost starved her one day.
