Let's put this in simple terms; Regent St are the best in the game! From the long-standing educators to the amazing reliable office staff/ management, oh and how can I forget the centres chef who seems to whip up magic food that my kids wouldn't touch at home but go in for seconds at daycare....... I've had 4 kids go through Regent St GS and in that time experienced nearly all the educators who are just amazing and so nurturing. One of my children has special needs and required that extra help, whilst a little more challenging for the educators I never felt like they couldn't handle it or that he was being missed or left behind in fact, quite the opposite. Educators and staff go above and beyond and ensure parents like me are supported, listened to and most importantly, our kids are kept safe (no matter how difficult some may be to handle ). Don't hesitate to trust the team at Regent St.

I don't know where all these 5 star reviews are coming from. Seems they have the bad ones removed because we had an absolutely horrible experience. Our child was too afraid to return because he was being stood over by 3 grown adults and yelled at. My partner had just returned home from dropping him off and they called asking her to pick him up because he threw something over the fence. He was 3 years old for gods sake!! We could see in his face he was too scared to go back and now they are trying to get us to pay them for the time he didn't attend because he didn't want to go. He has never complained about going to child care until we started him here but we could see the sadness and fear in his eyes. Disgusting and totally unacceptable. Not every child is easy and our son could be a bit of handful but they are supposed to be trained for this kind of situation and the way they handled it was extremely unprofessional. Shame on the women that treated our son that way!!!

I cannot speak more highly of the team at Goodstart Regent Street. My daughter has been attending the centre since she was 7 months old. The care and support the team have shown has been nothing short of amazing, she loves attending everyday so much so there are nights she doesn't want to leave.
