**Fantastic Early Learning Centre!** As a dad of a three-year-old boy, I couldn’t be happier with Welly Road Early Education. From the very first visit two years ago, we felt so welcomed by the staff, and it was clear that this was a place where children are genuinely cared for. Deanna, the director, is absolutely fantastic. She’s friendly, approachable, and clearly passionate about what she does. You can tell she runs the centre with a lot of heart, and it really shows in the way the whole place operates. The staff are all lovely—so warm and friendly, not just with the kids but also with the parents and even each other. There’s such a positive vibe, and it makes dropping my son off every morning so much easier knowing he’s in a place where he’s safe, happy, and learning. He comes home talking about his day with so much excitement, which just reassures me that he’s in the right place. I’d highly recommend Welly Road Early Education to any parent looking for a nurturing, friendly, and professional early learning centre. The care and effort they put into every child’s development is outstanding!

I had my son here as a casual for a while. He did have a great time but I did get a lot of attitude from the Assistant Centre Director. I overheard her make rude comments to other childcare staff about me a few times. But the reason for the 1 star is when I notified them that my son wont be attending anymore as a casual. They agreed to it and understood why he wont be attending anymore, but two weeks later I got a charge even though he wasn't there and he was enrolled as a casual. I have asked around 4-5 times now for a refund which they agreed to. But now they have gone quiet. I wont be sending my youngest to this centre now due to this unprofessionalism.
