Like the comments state 3 years ago, this centre was amazing. My eldest Son was blessed with educators who genuinely loved caring for children. Unfortunately I cannot say the same for our youngest child who I have recently pulled out of this centre (2021-2022) after several issues. A huge number of staff have recently left, including a complete change of leadership. The love for children and quality education that once was this centre is no longer. 2/3/2022 The new reviews of this service are from staff members who have children at this service. The fact that 3 people have reviewed this service over the past three days makes me think they have been asked to do this. This demonstrates poor taste and even poorer ethics. This does not give a fair representation of this service at all - simply bias opinion.
Response from the ownerabout 3 years agoThank you working with us so we could understand your concerns. I do understand that the change in leadership and turn-over of staff has been frustrating, however people have left to further their careers and for a life change - after over ten years at our centre, and we wish them well. Our new team are passionate and highly-qualified and love working in Early Learning. We are growing as a team and our families and children have adapted well. I am open to discussing this further, you are welcome to call me on 6229 1411. Kylie, Centre Director

We've enrolled our little one in 2021 and 2022. There has been a bit of staff turnover in the centre with COVID but I feel the centre have endeavored to keep consistency in staff where possible, especially in the younger rooms. The team have worked with us to create shared goals, and create stimulating activities aligned with our daughters interests. Our daughter's key educators really care about the kids and take notice of small achievements and are happy to share and celebrate them with us as parents. This is really important to us. I can tell there is a good connection between our daughter and educators because she is saying their names and "talking" about them when not at care. Because I believe these relationships are very important I was initially anxious about leaving my daughter in care to return to work, but I know she is in good hands and has a good time. The photo updates also help and give me something to look forward to while I am at work.

My boy has started in Room 4 in 2021, and room 5 this year. Team members are supported and really nice. A strong bond was built based on close communication between us. Daily activities are creative and meaningful. He always came home with happiness and excitement to share his day with me. I strongly recommend this center for families.
Response from the ownerabout 3 years agoThank you for the kind review. We work hard to make sure our childcare and kindergarten provides high quality learning and that we’re ‘part of the family.’ All of the credit for this goes to our amazing team. It means a lot to read reviews like yours which let us know we’re achieving what we set out to. 😊
