​5/5 Stars – An Incredible Second Home for Our Family!<br>​Our son has been attending Ascolta Daycare for the last two years, and he has truly loved every single minute of it.<br>​The educators are simply amazing—they are so caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children's growth and well-being. What we love most is how they foster independence and practical life skills. The kids learn how to set the table, serve their own meals, and even scrape their bowls afterward, building wonderful habits and confidence.<br>​There is always something fun happening, too! Wednesday is a particular highlight in our house because of Happy Feet. The kids look forward to the dancing, singing, stretching, and extremely fun games every week.<br>​On top of the wonderful staff and activities, the facility itself is exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and provides a safe, stimulating environment where kids can thrive.<br>​We are so grateful to the entire team at Ascolta for giving our son such a joyful, skill-building start to his early education. Highly recommended to any family looking for outstanding childcare

I would not recommend this daycare centre. The children are left outside for extended periods, often throughout the day. My son experienced sunstroke, and I had to visit a GP to obtain a medical note requesting that his time in the sun be limited. Despite this, the centre continued to keep the children outside during the hottest parts of the day. When I raised my concerns, the area manager dismissed them, stating there was an ‘open door policy’ where children could choose to be inside or outside. However, young children will almost always choose outdoor play. Especially when there are no engaging activities set up indoors to encourage them inside. Each time I arrived, all children were outside, often with the door shut, removing any real choice. The indoor learning spaces, although well presented, were not being utilised, and materials were not set up. It felt more like supervision in a courtyard rather than a stimulating learning environment. As a result, my child was not engaged or stimulated. I would choose a Montessori setting over this any day. While the centre claims to follow Montessori and Reggio Emilia philosophies, in my experience, these approaches were not being meaningfully implemented.

Could not rave about this daycare more! The staff are absolutely incredible and my boys love it!!!
