3 Best Child Care Centres in Sydney, NSW

Our little one spent nearly two years with DHCC, if we weren't moving away we'd still be there. The educators are amazing, the premises is great, and the community of parents within the centre made it so much easier to meet other families in the area and for our kiddo to build a network of friends. Leaving DHCC was honestly the hardest part about leaving Sydney. Nothing but positive things to say about this childcare centre.

My two daughter's loved DHCC. A lovely clean space with spacious indoor and outdoor play areas. The staff are very warm, inclusive and fun. The calendar is filled with lots of learning and creativity. Would highly recommend.

I cannot fault Dulwich Hill Childcare Centre. The educators are excellent. The activities they arrange for the children are educational and fun. The menu is healthy and varied. They help the children to develop and my daughter always looks forward to attending each day.

Our daughter Saskia has been coming to Explore & Develop for 18 months. Given our daughter’s diagnosis of Autism she has needed special care and attention and Explore & Develop have not only accommodated her with open arms but they have actively sought ways to assist her in the integration of her learning, development and achievement of her fundamental milestones. We are eternally grateful that Explore & Develop have given her the support, love and commitment to thrive in what has been a very challenging few years. We would highly recommend the centre, its management and the day care staff who have demonstrated a concerted and tireless effort in offering Saskia every opportunity to be a part of the wonderful and unique learnings on offer there.

Really happy with the standard of care and education Isobel receives. The educators are lovely, very friendly and seem to have the best interests of all the children front of mind at all times. Going back to work has been so much easier when you know that your child is being well looked after and is having fun, which you can see in the photos and the updates.

I can tell the educators really care about the kids and they are so good at their jobs. I love the photo updates throughout the day. Keep them coming.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Kids Club Childcare Clarence centre. The teachers are truly amazing, and my child has always enjoyed going there. The atmosphere is bright and welcoming, and I especially love the big open windows that make the space feel so cheerful. What has impressed me the most is the professionalism, genuine love, and care shown by every single staff member. Jamie, Liz, Lauren, Ivy, and the rest of the team have been absolutely wonderful. Their dedication and kindness have made such a positive impact on both my child and our family. The centre feels very welcoming and friendly. almost like being part of a big family. Knowing my child is so well cared for gives me complete peace of mind. If anyone is currently looking for childcare in this area, I can wholeheartedly recommend this centre. It’s truly a special place.

Words cannot express how wonderful the team at Kids Club in Clarence Street are! After a difficult experience at a previous daycare in Hunters Hill, I was naturally very anxious about enrolling Sienna somewhere new. But from day one, the entire team has been so incredibly warm, caring, and professional. I feel completely confident that Sienna is in the best hands every time I drop her off. Jamie, Liz, Ivy, Cecilia, Ms Yourim, Ms June, and the rest of the staff are absolutely fantastic. Sienna adores them all, and she’s always eager to wave me off so she can jump into her day. It is such a joy to see her thrive in an environment she genuinely loves. I am continually impressed by the range and thoughtfulness of the activities offered. They go far beyond the typical daycare fare. The activities are clearly designed to nurture not only learning, but also compassion, responsibility, and real-world skills. It is a truly enriching program. Thank you to everyone for creating such a nurturing, joyful space. I am so grateful.

Kids club has been fantastic! The center is always clean, the educators are attentive and caring, and communication is smooth and responsive. I feel confident knowing my child is in such a supportive and well-organized environment. Highly recommend.
