### null review (5/5)

Our son has been at Blooming Buds for about three months now and he’s absolutely loving it! The centre has great facilities and lovely, caring teachers. I’ve noticed incredible growth and development in Kobi since he started - he’s become more confident, social, and curious. We’re so happy to have found a place where he feels safe and excited to learn every day. Highly recommend!

We visited this daycare for transition. My child attended only 2 days, 1 hour each day, and she was with her nani (grandmother) during this time. On the second day, the staff asked my nani to go upstairs and said they would take care of her.

However, within 5 minutes, when my nani checked on her, my child was crying a lot, and no one was comforting her. The teachers were busy doing their own work and did not respond to her distress.

One new teacher, Farida, promised to look after her, but once my nani left, that promise was not kept. This experience was very disappointing and concerning for us as parents.

I strongly suggest the owner hire experienced teachers, properly check references, and ensure staff genuinely care for children, especially during the transition period when kids are most vulnerable.

​I can’t say enough good things about the team here. The consistency of activities and the regular updates keep us feeling so connected to our girls day. It’s a relief to see them so happy and excited to walk through the doors each morning. Thank you for all you do!
