I have my son at City West and the staff and facilities are great. Location might seem poor (bottom of Hindley St) but if you work in the city it is pretty fantastic.

While other reviewers have commented on a confusing layout I have to say that couldn't disagree more! The whole centre is built around a huge sheltered outdoor play area, so there is safety and security from external "bad guys" but more than enough room for the kids to stretch their legs.

They have a full-time cook who makes great food for the kids (makes me jealous) and the carers are lovely.

Prices are very reasonable and it is community based - all profits made go back into the centre.

Not a word of complaint from me, this place is aweesome.

Approximate cost: $300 p/w

was happy with the carers and service itself. Although my child had a hard time adapting to it, the carers were willing to give him absolute attention so service was great. just wasn't impressed with the set up of the place. too confusing and complicated.

wonderful. i have a 5 mth old there and they take great care of her. All the kids were happy the staff were playing with them. the rooms r so inviting. they provide u with lots of information. i have no problems leaving my child there. i can call any time to check on her. Its great.

Approximate cost: $285/week fulltime

Great for a one off emergency, I'm not sure I'd want my children going here all the time. Although located in the city, is out of the way and not convenient to access. A large centre that has an institutional feel about it.

Approximate cost: $30-$50
