This centre is wonderful. My child enjoys every day there, and I can pick my child up with peace of mind, always greeted by a smile. The childcare staff are deeply committed to the children, providing care tailored to each child's individual needs, and my child actively engages with them. Although our stay was short-term, the experience my child gained was incredibly meaningful, and I can see how satisfied my child is. I'm grateful for the professional care provided by the staff, and I would highly recommend this centre to other parents.

Poor communication, not professional staff. One star review.

I had a great experience at this centre and am sorry to have left due to moving away. Nut, Hannah, Pat, Cher, and Lily have been so supportive of my daughter's development at the centre. They are warm and caring and always had a welcoming smile when I was there. They would take the children out on regular excursions, hold regular music days, provide cooking sessions and craft activities. The centre itself is very spacious and clean. Mona and Shiva were also lovely on the administration side. Five stars
