    I was nervous for my daughter (10m) to start attending day-care, but the staff at Motherduck were so supportive, and the transition has been a really positive experience for both of us. In particular, it’s been delightful to see how Miss Zoe in the Infant Studio forms a caring and genuine attachment with each and every child in her care. I love how excited my daughter gets to see her, and am in awe at how she gives such warm and loving attention to all the little ones in the room. You can tell that they adore her, and I feel happy leaving my child, knowing she’s in good hands. The rest of the staff are just as lovely - all greet my daughter by name as we arrive or leave, and go out of their way to make us feel welcome and supported. And unlike the sterile feeling I’ve gotten from other centres, the centre itself is beautiful, clean, and decorated in a way that feels homely. They provide so many fun activities and outdoor time, and I can tell my daughter loves her days there. I would recommend to anyone looking for a high quality day-care.
