I have been going to this centre for over 6 years between my kids. I chose them as they felt like one big family and had educators who actually had a genuine passion for working with the kids, something that’s not as common as you would think. That has remained true all this time. I couldn’t be happier with the way they respect my children and make them feel included every day. Thank you for taking such great care of my girls
