    We first toured this centre some time ago and initially chose a different provider — but we quickly realised what was missing: the warmth, connection, and genuine care we felt from the moment we first walked into Wanniassa. When we returned, we were blown away by the changes. The centre feels even more inviting, organised, and thoughtfully set up. The team have created such a beautiful environment where children feel safe, supported, and happy. From day one, Zoha has been present, kind, and always willing to listen. It’s rare to find a leader so involved and genuinely invested in the wellbeing of families and children. We’re so glad we made the switch — it’s the best decision we’ve made for our child.

    This centre has been amazing for our family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. From the environment to the educators, everything feels warm, safe, and nurturing. A big part of that is Zoha — she has supported us from day one. She’s always present, approachable, and genuinely caring 🤗. I’ll never forget how she made those first tough drop-offs easier, even offering a hug when one needed it most. The love and leadership she brings makes this place feel like a second home. We couldn’t be happier! 😍🌟

    Rachel — thank you for this lovely review! We’re so happy to hear that you’ve felt supported and welcomed from the very beginning. It means a lot to us! Zoha really is amazing, isn’t she? Her warmth and care make such a difference, and we’re so glad she’s been there for your family during those early drop-offs (and hugs!). It’s families like yours that make our centre feel like the special place it is. Thanks again for sharing — we’re lucky to have you with us!

    Guardian Wanniassa has been an amazing experience for my son, Qaqa. He is always excited to go to the centre early morning, and it’s clear he loves the engaging and fun learning activities. The toddler educator and lead are all incredibly professional, always ensuring that the children are supported in a caring and nurturing environment. He loved the food there and always have minimum 2-3 serves lol. Thanks to our wonderful chef and kitchen staff there. My kid has quickly settled there within few weeks and now he enjoys his whole day. I highly recommend Guardian Wanniassa to any parent around who are looking for a fantastic childcare service and growth !!
