### null review (5/5)

My children have been attending Sunshine from age 1 and 4 months (they are now almost 3 and 18 months). My eldest felt so at home and welcome that he completely ignored me his entire first visit which ended up being four hours and he was so comfortable in the environment that he started the next day! Both boys absolutely LOVE their daycare and have a great time. Sunshine have been so understanding and accommodating for us and the teachers are wonderful, caring and passionate people. Wouldn't want to send my kids anywhere else!

Where to start. This place is magic. My son was here from here from 6 months until 3 when we sadly moved. Since the move he’s struggled a lot. Sunshine has incredible staff and they actually care. Ally is one of the kindest most caring people I’ve met! Phillipa loved my boy as if he were her own grandson. Holly, miah were both amazing and Tiana. I’m so sad we moved as I’m struggling to find any kindy that meets or comes close to the very qualities that makes sunshine, sunshine. I love this place and if you love your babies and want to see them thrive. This is the place.

Sunshine Ave was recommend to me by a work colleague when we were looking at care for our son. We looked at two different daycares during our search. Our first impression of sunshine that it well back from the road but had impressive outdoor facilities. We found it clean and well organised considering they deal with the number of children they have. I was impressed to find that enrollment costs covered not only food but also nappies which meant less stress for me.

I have found the staff at sunshine dedicated and attentive to the children in their care. They upload plenty of photos of what my boy and his mates have been up to during the day. They have been very flexible and understanding to our needs around the days our son needs to be there etc.

My mother, who has been teaching in Primary and ECE for over 50 years came with me on a drop off one morning to check out the place she got to spend some time talking to Ally about my son and how Sunshine operate. Mum left saying that if she had young children she'd send them there.

I have found my son's growth at sunshine amazing. He's always happy arriving and is happy when I pick him up.

I feel very comfortable sending my son to Sunshine.
