My child has been to Littlezaks for a year and half and couldn't recommend this enough. The staff have gone above and beyond to accommodate our little one's needs. Thank you Dulshani and team for the fantastic job you're doing for parents

I really love Mount Colah centre! My daughter is usually very shy and didn’t like to speak much. But after just three months here, we’ve seen such a big change—she’s started to speak more and more every day. Thank you so much to the educators for your patience, care, and support. You’ve made such a positive difference in her life!

Fancy having the new director leave a 5 star review on the service she is running, with no child present at the service. Having been inside this service and seeing first hand how they run, I can say that there are no opportunities for your children to thrive. While the educators do provide care for the children at the centre, there is no passion or interest amongst the staff in supporting the children to grow, and as a result there's nothing nurturing about the care offered. It's a matter of opening the doors at 7am, and counting down the hours until the children go home. This service runs off greed, and instead of working on their educators’ professional development, they spend more time asking them to leave a 5 star review to maintain a "high standard" reputation. The exceeding sign you see out front, is something that was achieved by a wonderful team who were later shooed out by new management, leaving the service run by new faces and a lack of trusting relationships with families. While all services have room for improvement... please listen to these reviews and find a space where you know your child is confident, thriving, and loving their learning journey.

Hi Cee Cee, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We have reviewed our records and unfortunately cannot locate your details in our system. We believe this review may have been left anonymously, as we couldn’t find anyone under your name. We warmly invite you to contact the centre directly so we can have an open conversation and address your concerns properly. We want to assure you that our educators are supported with ongoing professional development, a clear career progression program, and even assistance in completing their qualifications. The wellbeing of both children and educators is always our priority. Our Centre Director is a dedicated professional who leads with integrity and care. She has been instrumental in building strong, trusting relationships with families and guiding a passionate team who truly care about supporting each child’s growth. Since last year, the service has undergone many positive changes, including: • A wide range of extracurricular activities such as Swimming, Zakaroos, Yoga, French, School Prep, and our LZ Kitchen program. • Regular in-house events and celebrations including Reptile Man, Bella’s Bubbles, science shows, Christmas in July, and family BBQs. • Strong staff retention, with no agency use since February and a stable, passionate team. • Continuous improvements to the centre environment and family communication. • A strong focus on family partnerships, keeping families informed and engaged in their child’s learning journey. We also wish to clarify that the Exceeding rating displayed at the centre was awarded by the Department of Education, and we are proudly working every day to maintain and uphold that standard. We are proud of the nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment we provide and would love the opportunity to show you the positive changes firsthand. Please feel free to reach out to us directly on 1300 33 9257 to arrange a visit. Warm regards, Little Zak’s
