Paisley Park Early Learning Centre Templestowe

We couldn't be happier with our choice of Paisley Park for our children. Originally from the Malvern branch which was just so welcoming and had an awesome team led by Chandi, all of whom managed our 3 yo with so much care and comfort, we were sad to relocate but relieved to have a branch in Templestowe Lower that we could transfer to. Special thanks to Seloni and Rani who would put her at ease often when she would get anxious if I left her at drop off during her initial time starting out here. And of course Chef Stephen who always had a gingerbread man cookie to cheer up the little ones.<br><br>Our daughter is happy here at Templestowe Lower - also because there are less kids and more space so it is less overwhelming for her as she is a little reserved. Because of the confidence we felt, we decided to start our 1 yo son earlier than planned for 2 days a week and since starting here, he's been so happy to come daily that I can drop him off and he runs into the rooms with his educators and friends happily.<br><br>Although they are much newer than the Malvern branch, Rosalea and team put in so much care to make us feel welcome and eliminate any source of stress when it comes to our kids' well being. We noticed that they are constantly working to improve from the time we started to now in terms of efficiency during drop offs and pick ups and change in shifts.<br><br>The outdoor space is awesome, there's a spacious carpark, in- house chef and kitchen on-site - all of which are huge points for us. Hygiene and food safety are of utmost importance to us and it's basically an open kitchen concept serving fresh meals. We truly hope they get a great replacement chef real soon, hopefully one who is engaging and cheerful just like Chef Stephen.<br><br>We like the philosophy of the founders and Management of the centre and their policies. We have always felt at ease and and able to communicate freely with the educators on matters relating to our children as well as receive good communication via the dedicated channels or even directly from the educators when necessary. So grateful to everyone involved for the attention to detail and warmth that we feel here.
