It Wouldnt allow me not to select stars so I had to put one but I really wish it allowed me to put zero.

I wouldn't recommend this childcare centre to any parent. Multiple times they took more money then sapose to and deny it, wouldn't turn air-conditioning on when it was really hot because apparently it cost to much to electricity, sometimes my child hadn't eaten all day because they didn't like one of the meals provided and were not given an alternative option (although on enrolment form you put in things your child doesn't eat) they allow children in the centre to bully other children I witnessed Multiple children be bullied and they did nothing and much more stay clear parents!!

Friendly staff and great environment. My kids are treated very well there and have always felt like they are part of the family. I always get adequate feedback about my kids and they have also implemented technology to update us parents. Very happy!

Very high turn over of staff. kids always hungry. daily updates/charts are basic and not updated daily. Nothing of quality ever comes home - so they don't spend fees on art supplies. All the toys/equipment looks old and gross- but not the office. Max profit, minimum service. Do not give statements. Food not nutritious enough: pancakes for lunch.

the staff have been very welcoming and professional. the rooms are full of the children's work and activities. my kids love it. the owner is very approachable. it is by no means the flashest centre but we liked the family friendly feel and the small numbers for our kids. before this place we went to a very sterile, uninviting place with ott policies and proceedures that staff were not au-fait with. widgets stafff seem very on to it and friendly and relaxed

Approximate cost: $60/$70

Teachers are great - just wished that they worked somewhere else so that my son could still have them as teachers!. Owner is solely running a business for profit. Food isnt nutritious nor enough for the children - my son comes back hungry everyday. The centre is cold all the time despite having ducted air conditioning installed (no doubt to save on actually keeping the children warm).
Service is poor, receipting still takes forever. My son wont be attending any longer. Owner suggested to keep my bond in lieu of actually paying final 2 weeks (as I actually receive like most family's a CCB deduction she was going to make money out of me! - the nerve!).
With so much more to choose from in the area, spend your money much wiser and ensure your child has better care as this isnt about childcare its about profits!
