Absolutely love this daycare!!! Our daughter started here as a 1 year old and has learnt so much. Beautiful nature based environment. A bit on the pricey side, but well worth it. The teachers are so lovely.

I’m extremely happy with Gaia (Earth ) Forest preschool experience. The teachers are very nice, friendly, and truly care about the children. The environment is warm, welcoming, and healthy—perfect for little ones to grow and thrive. I especially love the natural surroundings and forest area—it gives the children such a unique opportunity to connect with nature and explore in a safe and nurturing way. Highly recommended!

Great Preschool, nice teacher and staff but management is getting money minded, as it is fairly new daycare so do their popularity. Average 7% increase in fee each year is crazy. once the child get settled its very hard on parents to take a decision to get the child out due to unpredictable hike in fees. 2% - 3% increase once in a while is understandable but 7% - 8% is too much.
