Little Paddington Child Care Centre and Kindergarten

Our (almost) 4-year-old son has been at Little Pads for the past 18 months, and we absolutely adore the centre. He’s now in his third room, so we’ve experienced three different teams of educators — and every single one has been exceptional. We genuinely cannot fault them. The educators are warm, kind, and truly invested. Everyone knows our son’s name, greets us enthusiastically each morning, and takes the time to ask about — and remember — details about our family. It feels so personal and thoughtful. We can see how much he’s learning, and they’ve been incredibly patient and supportive through milestones like toilet training and dropping naps. There are also a couple of standout male educators who bring such a wonderful, positive energy to the centre — it’s been so lovely to see that influence in his early years. The communication is fantastic. We receive lots of pictures and a detailed update at the end of the day via the app and at pick-up an educator always makes the effort to share meaningful insights about how his day went. It never feels rushed. A special mention to Tahnee — she is always so kind, helpful, and accommodating. Little Pads truly feels like part of our village. We will be very happily sending our second child when the time comes.
