Parent 1:
Enrolling my little one at Young Academics, Alex Ave has been one of the best decisions. The staff is very kind, supportive and approachable. They love the kids and are very friendly with them as well as with parents. They have gone above and beyond my expectations in every aspects.All in all very happy with my decision.
Parent 2:
The staff here at YA go above and beyond in all they do to provide a happy, safe and fun environment for all children. The educators in my sons room have made his transition into YA so easy and positive and are constantly updating me about my sons daily activities.
Parent 3:
I can't recommend YA schofields, Alex Ave highly enough for anyone looking for an early learning centre for their child. It became a home away from home for my two kids due to the caring and vibrate nature of the educators in every room. The growth I have seen in my two kids (both socially and academically) has been nothing short of amazing.
Interested in this centre but want to keep looking?
