My daughter started here in 2022, shes loved it from the day she walked in. Marian and her amazing staff go over and beyond for our kids, from helping organise referrals to Occupational Therapist as my daughter is needing extra support. HDCC provide an educational environment that supports learning in nature with Bush Kinder programme, learning of Indigenous culture and respect for the land we live and play on and they also have Outstanding staff who genuinely care for your child and their development. My daughter loves attending each day as shss grown to trust and know her Educators very well. My daughter's educational and social development has grown from strength to strength, all because of HDCC' person centred and holistic principles that have seen my daughter and many others thrive. Thank you Marian, Laurie and the Team - I'm thankful we chose the foundation of learning for our daughter to be here at HDCC. Best decision we made!!

Hothlyn Drive Children's Centre is truly my daughter's home away from home. The staff treat every child like their own, with so much love, care, and attention. My daughter comes home happy every single day, excitedly talking about all the fun and creative activities she’s done. What makes this place even more special is that I actually went to this childcare myself as a child — and some of the amazing staff still remembered me! That just shows how long-standing, committed, and family-oriented this centre really is. It has such a warm, welcoming environment that feels more like a second family than just a childcare. I honestly can’t recommend HDCC highly enough. We feel so lucky to be part of this beautiful community.
