Precious Cargo Education Montessori Early Learning

Olive has been attending precious cargo for almost 6 months now. Olives father and I have only positive things to say about the centre and the staff. Olives is in the waddlers group. She attends 3 days a week and she absolutely loves it. We love that the centre is based on Montessori principals. The staff organise engaging tasks for the kids that help them in their development. We have seen Olive flourish in this environment. I also love that the waddlers group is quite small. Another thing that is lovely, is that each child has a key staff memeber and that staff member keeps a personal book for each child. The book contains photos and information on family as well as the activities they have done. The staff also have a Waddler specific book that gets filled in daily where parents can see what the children got up to that day. The waddlers staff always communitcate with parents on pick up and let them know how they have gone that day especially in regards to sleeping, eating, toileting and overall mood. We love the Routine that the centre follows for the waddlers group. Olive naps about 1.5 hours during the day, has multiple learning through play activities through the day and they have an excellent chef making nutritious meals for the kids (sometimes me and my pater joke that the kids are eating better than us). We really like and trust the staff. We are always greeted on arrival either by Renee or another staff. Chloe, Purnima and Poorni from waddlers are fantastic. We also have great appreciation for Renee - the director. Renee is so kind and has gone above and beyond in supporting us by providing Olive with food options that don’t include her food sensitivies. She has personally gone out shopping to find items that Olive can eat. We also appreciate how easy is it to communicate with Renee and how supportive and flexible she has been. We also really appreciate Erin from admin who has been really helpful with organising things like Centrelink child care subsidy especially when we have run into issues. Overall we think this is a fantastic centre. We trust the staff and we know that Olive feels safe and is thriving. We highly recommend this centre to anyone looking
