    Our experience at LEAD Childcare Southport has been absolutely outstanding. Even after moving houses, we chose to continue driving 30–50 minutes every day just so our daughter could stay at this centre — that’s how much we value the exceptional care and support she receives here. From the very beginning, the team has shown genuine dedication to her development, celebrating every milestone and adapting their approach to her unique learning style. Educators like Jenny, Denny, Lauren, Tara, Giovanna and Qhyn have played a key role in building her confidence and nurturing her growth through thoughtful planning and a deep understanding of her needs. Actually, this applies for all educators that are around there, and looking after my baby. The management team, Paige and Liv, are always welcoming and responsive, handling every request with warmth and efficiency. And we can’t forget Joane, who not only manages the food service but also showers the children with love, cuddles, and care — something we deeply appreciate as parents. What truly sets LEAD Southport apart is the way they see each child. They resonate with their achievements, provide unwavering encouragement, and foster a safe, joyful, and inspiring environment where children thrive — emotionally, socially, and academically. The centre is also incredibly safe and secure, with no direct access to the street .They have also camera that are monitored internally — a detail that offers us daily peace of mind as parents. Their procedures, communication, and day-to-day care are simply impeccable. Their app is amazing, the frequency we keep ourselves updated it's incredible. the opportunities of learning, from Art, different languages teaching options. To any parent searching for a place where their child will be truly cherished, supported, and given the best start in life, I wholeheartedly and confidently recommend LEAD Childcare Southport.
