We are so grateful to have our son at BestStart Avondale. It is truly the best daycare. He has learned so much here and has grown in confidence, creativity, and imagination through the wide range of fun activities and carefully planned holiday programs. The teachers are absolutely amazing, caring, supportive, and always encouraging children to do their best. Because of them, my son is now ready to start primary school with a very positive attitude.

The centre also has wonderful office staff and administration who are always welcoming and very flexible with time changes, which makes it so much easy for us. We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our child’s early learning journey. Highly recommend BestStart Avondale to every parent.

My daughter has been attending BestStart Avondale since she was 6 months old, and it has been an incredibly positive journey for both of us. From day one, she felt happy and comfortable in the environment, and over time, I’ve seen her grow into a confident, independent little girl who loves learning and exploring new things.
The team at BestStart Avondale is truly wonderful. A special thank you to Shona, Beaula, Kavitha, and the new teacher (whose name I haven’t caught yet) — each of you has shown genuine care, kindness, and professionalism. It's clear that the children are not just looked after but truly cared for and supported in their development.
I’ve also noticed how the centre continues to improve — the playground has been upgraded, and resources are always being refreshed and replenished, which shows the centre’s commitment to providing a high-quality learning environment.
Overall, I’m very happy with the care and education my daughter receives at BestStart Avondale. It’s a safe, nurturing, and inspiring place for little ones to grow.
