The educators and staff here are amazing! They are all highly experienced, trustworthy, caring & nurturing. They know all the little details about my kids, including their likes and dislikes. This goes to show that they genuinely cared about the kids and are engaged with them. Both my kids loved coming here and they have both thrived and flourished in the loving and capable hands of the educators. My daughter (who is now in school) still speak about this centre and the educators here with fond memories. This gives me great comfort and a peace of mind knowing that my kids are/were well cared for and really enjoyed their time here. This centre has great layouts and great programs, including their weekly ‘show and tell’. The educators also practiced and instilled a love for learning and great mannerism in my kids and taught them about patience (waiting for their turns) and kindness (sharing, empathising with others etc.). I would highly recommend this centre to anyone looking for a trustworthy and nurturing environment where their kids would continue to flourish in the loving and capable hands of the educators.

We have been blown away by the warmth and professionalism of the educators and staff in this centre. Despite being a small center, it has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that immediately puts both children and parents at ease. My child loves going there every day, and I have peace of mind knowing she’s in such capable and caring hands. I highly recommend Cathie’s Lane to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive environment for their child.
