Great start. Sent my child here from age 2 for about 5 months. Was a great place with great staff but the problem was I think because of the older kids being mixed with the 2 year olds there was sneaky kissing on the lips including French kissing. As soon as she came home trying to do it to me I pulled her out and sent her elsewhere. The staff can’t keep their eyes on each child all the time and there are visible hiding places.

My son, Avi, is two and he is settled very well now. Was hard for us to trust any childcare facility but he is settled so well that i cannot think of any other daycare!

This is purely because the teachers are welcoming and caring.

Really like the quality of childcare. I am assured that my child is safe, fed, put to bed, no nappy rash and learning lots of social skills.

They even taught my son to say Namastey (Join both hand with respect to greet elders) being an integral part of our Indian Culture. They also celebrate Diwali in the center being our main Hindu festival.

Really like and appreciate all his teachers, they are superheroes ; Mandy (she is the manager and really and understanding personality), Bronwyn (teacher that Avi loves the most), Debbie (she is just awesome in everything she does), Kokha (really a knowledgeable guide and i appreciate her), Karen (Lots to say about her for example she taught Avi to say Namastey and had a bindi on her forehead with me on our Diwali eve)!!!!

Thank you so much
Naveena and Arvind (Avi's parents)
