STORY HOUSE EARLY LEARNING WARRNAMBOOL REVIEWS

WOW! Where do I start with this centre - most times I tell my friends and family about where my daughter attends daycare I get quite emotional! I changed my daughter half way through last year from another centre to Koala , it was and has been the best decision I have made for her in her little life of 3 years this far! You walk in and are immediately greeted with the biggest smiles from Gill, Rach and the desk crew! They are the most accommodating and kind humans which flows throughout their entire staff - the educators are next level! Every single one of them has a smile on their face, happy to see the children, make each and every family member feel welcomed and just give that little bit extra! Keep up the great work Koala , you are making so many Mums, Dads, grandparents etc very happy and at ease with the care of their littlest loved ones! Thank you for creating such a welcoming environment for children and their families.

Can’t say enough about the educators at Koala. They are all so friendly, work really hard with the kids and their development, and as a result my daughter loves her time at Koala. Her speech has come on leaps and bounds and she loves talking about the different activities they do every day. The facility itself is great- immaculately kept, and a great outdoor play space. I would highly recommend Koala to any prospective parents.

We have been using Koala Childcare for almost 4 years and have never had any issues. Our daughter loves the activities in the rooms and the way they are changed regularly. The staff are all friendly and caring towards both the children and their families.

GOODSTART EARLY LEARNING DENNINGTON REVIEWS

We absolutely love goodstart Dennington, the kids love it and the ladies are so nice! I’ve had 2 kids there and my 3rd will be starting soon. I feel like it’s been easy to build a relationship with all the carers that work with my kids.

We have had the best experience at Goodstart, my daughters educational and social needs have been met. The educators and all staff are dedicated to all the children at the centre and always have time for feedback at pick up time, which I find fantastic.

Love Goodstart Dennington. Fabulous centre with great staff who provide the kids with fantastic opportunities to learn and play.

KARDINIA EARLY LEARNING WARRNAMBOOL REVIEWS

The relationships with children were ones that gave me goosebumps – authenticity and appreciation for every child as unique and the ability for educators to really know children on a deep level.

Kardinia is a very welcoming and inclusive centre. The educators and staff are truly wonderful and supportive of all children and their uniqueness.

Our son loves Kardinia and so do we as a family, we always feel welcome and apart of a great center. Our son has excelled during his daycare and kinder years, all the staff is amazing and so friendly and caring.
