Kookaburra Kindergarten Chatswood

We cannot recommend Kookaburra Kindergarten highly enough. We’ve had both of our sons attend Kookaburra from the Joey/Babies room through to 2026, starting back in 2022, and it has truly been a second home for our family. The only reason we are leaving is because our oldest is starting school elsewhere and we are moving out of the area — otherwise, we would absolutely continue care for our youngest without hesitation. The Kelly family (owners) are incredibly hands-on and genuinely invested in the children, families, and educators. That care flows through the entire centre. Angelina, the Centre Director, has been exceptional — always caring, approachable, and just a phone call or email away. She consistently goes above and beyond to accommodate our requests and make things work for families. One of the things we’ve loved most is the small, boutique environment. You really get to know everyone — educators, families, and kids — and it naturally creates a strong sense of community. We’ve formed some wonderful family friendships just by bumping into each other at drop-off and pick-up throughout the year. The educators are incredibly caring, warm, and diverse, and you can feel how well they know and support each child. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and clearly enjoys being part of the centre. A huge mention also to Houda, the cook — our morning chats with her have always been a lovely part of the day. Most importantly, our kids have never been reluctant to go to daycare in the mornings — which says everything. They’re excited, happy, and clearly having fun, and that has given us enormous peace of mind as parents. Thank you, Kookaburra Kindergarten, for the care, love, and memories you’ve given our family. We will always look back on our years here with so much gratitude. 💛
