Sage Early Childhood Day Care is an absolute gem. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt welcomed and reassured. The staff are truly beautiful — warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in every child’s wellbeing. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in how they engage with the kids and families. The facilities are exceptional, and the aesthetic is second to none — calming, thoughtfully designed, and full of little details that make it feel like a second home. My child absolutely loves going, which makes drop-offs easy and gives me such peace of mind during the day. Honestly, I feel like I’ve won the lotto finding Sage. It’s rare to find a place that gets everything so right. I can’t recommend them enough.

Sage is in a league of its own when it comes to early childhood care and education. It’s truly premium - but without the premium pricing (actually lower hourly rates than a lot of daycares in Sydney). Every single detail, from the thoughtfully curated environment to the exceptional care, reflects a commitment to quality for both the child and the parent. The educators at Sage are not only warm and deeply attentive, but also highly qualified, many with formal university education. The whole team is passionately involved (just look at the socials, you can tell even the marketing manager is hands on and into it!) They take the time to get to know each child and their families. I was especially touched when they went out of their way to confirm my child’s dietary preferences and ensure they were met with respect and precision. The entry experience alone sets the tone for the day: from the easy dedicated car parking to themed lifts and intentional decorations that celebrate a diversity of cultures and seasons - not to mention the nature sounds playing as you walk in. The care and detail is clear as soon as you step inside, words don’t do justice so a tour is a must. The Sage app mirrors the in-centre experience: seamless, detailed, and parent-friendly. Everything is made easy, with beautiful updates and thoughtful features that keep me connected and informed. I travel from Bondi to Chippendale just so my child can be part of the Sage community. That’s how much I value the level of care, learning, and joy my child (and I!) receive here. Each day brings something new, whether it’s a surprise and delight moment, or simply knowing my child is safe and thriving in a premium environment. I feel myself get excited for our Sage days. If you’re looking for a centre that balances heart, education, design, and detail — this is it.

After desperately searching and stressing over finding the right daycare for my baby girl, all I can say is — we finally found the perfect place! 🌟 Sage Early Education Centre is everything we could have hoped for and more. It’s a safe, clean, and beautifully designed space that feels warm and welcoming the moment you walk in. The environment is spacious and thoughtfully set up for little ones to explore, learn, and grow. But what truly sets Sage apart are the carers. They are genuinely amazing — nurturing, patient, and full of love. My 15-month-old absolutely loves going there, and it’s been incredible to see how much she’s developed and blossomed since starting. We couldn’t be happier, and I honestly cannot recommend Sage enough to any parent looking for a place where their child will be cared for like family 💛
Response from the ownerabout 1 month agoThank you so much for your kind words! It means the world to us to know you’re feeling supported and at ease. Watching her grow and thrive has been such a joy 🧡 We are so lucky to have your family as part of the Sage community!
