Headstart Geelong has been amazing for our 12 month old who has just started her childcare journey. She's formed attachments to her educators super quickly and Khushbu from the nursery has been so kind and loving - my daughter loves her so much. Khushbu always takes the time to tell me what our daughter's favourite toys have been, who she's enjoyed playing with and anything cool she did during the day. I also love the daily photos and updates. I truly feel she's getting an exceptionally high level of care here and I'm so glad we chose Headstart Geelong.
