My daughter went to New Shoots Sunnynook from 11 to 23 months. The only reason I am taking her off is because we are moving to a suburb far away, but I am heartbroken. The teachers are amazing, very knowledgeable, supportive of our family preferences, and willing to help our little one trhiving. Everyone who works there is lovely, very good at communicating, and supportive. The center is very organized and well managed. Highlights for me are the food, which is yummy and very nutricious, the ratio of teacher to children, the beautiful space outside for kids to play freely and be in contact with nature and the way they encourage the kids to develop into independent explorers. Even though drop-offs are difficult sometimes, I always felt confident that my girl was very well looked after. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thanks, New Shoots Sunnynook:)

Newshoots Sunnynook have the best teachers that take care of  your children like their own. I feel  secure in leaving my children in their care knowing they are being loved and looked after everyday ensuring my children are safe and cared for when I’m not there to do that, while I am at work.
One thing that stands out to me though and what I really love about this school is the engagement with my children from when they enter the class, this goes to the teachers and to the relievers!my utmost appreciation for this. They impress me so much when it comes to this, making them feel , loved, secure, safe and valued. This is why I have my second child enrolling with them. Management have blown me away showing love and care when it come to my family life and I really appreciate it.

Our son joined New Shoots Sunnynook in 2020 when he was 2.5 years old and he couldn't wait to get there and after he moved to the pre-school room he wouldn't want to go home on some days. Our daughter also attends New Shoots for almost a year now and she loves it. The teachers are amazing, dedicated and have offered a secure and nurturing environment for both of our children. One of the things that I appreciate are the exciting table activities that wait for the kids in the mornings and make drop-off so much easier. Thank you for the wonderful work that your team does!
