I cannot recommend this Montessori highly enough. My son has been here since he was a baby and is now graduating and heading off to school, and it has been such an important part of his life story and development. The trust I have felt with this centre has meant everything to me. The educators are truly exceptional, warm, nurturing, and deeply invested in each child. Over the years they have come to feel like extended family, and knowing my son was always safe, supported, and genuinely cared for gave me enormous peace of mind. The standard of education and care is outstanding. The learning environment supports independence, confidence, and curiosity while also nurturing emotional security. I have seen my son grow in so many ways, and this centre has played a huge role in preparing him for school and for life. This is a place where children are truly seen and valued. I will always be so very grateful to Anne and the wonderful team for the care and dedication shown to my son, and I cannot recommend Ladybird Manor highly enough to any family.

We’ve been so lucky to have our daughter attend LBM. The educators are incredibly dedicated, caring, and truly loving. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and supported, and most importantly, we always felt safe leaving our daughter in their care. She has grown so much—emotionally, socially, and in confidence. Thank to the nurturing and thoughtful environment the team has created. Curriculum is also comprehensive. We are deeply grateful for the kindness, patience, and genuine love they’ve shown. Thank you for giving our daughter such a beautiful start to her learning journey 😊🙏

I have been a parent of a child that attends the toddler room. I rate this Montessori very highly because of the care and love that the educators have for each child. My child is much happier and confident as compared to previous centre. Each child is cared for and taught well. My child is more disciplined which I am thankful for. Will miss this place.

Ladybird Manor has been an incredibly special part of our family's journey for the past six years. Both of my children, have grown, learned, and thrived under the care of the wonderful educators and staff at this Centre. From their very first day to the last, we have always felt welcomed, supported, and reassured knowing they were in such nurturing and capable hands. The educators at Ladybird Manor are not only caring and professional but are truly passionate about early childhood education. They’ve created a warm, engaging, and safe environment where children are encouraged to explore, learn, and build confidence. The communication with families has always been excellent, and we’ve loved being kept in the loop with regular updates and photos of our kids’ activities and milestones. We are deeply grateful for the incredible care, dedication, and love shown to our children. Leaving is bittersweet, but we will always look back with immense gratitude and fond memories. Thank you for being such a meaningful part of our lives, we wish the entire team at Ladybird Manor continued success!

Bad experience at this childcare centre. The resources of the centre don't appeared to be used well on children and seem to be run as a for profit business from what I can tell.

I did a lot of research before choosing to send my child to Ladybird Manor and I haven’t been disappointed. We couldn’t be more confident in their professionalism. We’re so grateful for the gentle guidance and care our child receives everyday. I couldn’t recommend Ladybird more highly. Thanks to the team for all they do

My 2 children grew up at ladybird manor from the age of 6 months to 5 years. It was their home away from home and we loved being a part of the ladybird family. Annie and staff go above and beyond to not only care, nurture and guide our young ones, they also educate and prepare the children for Kindy and school. I recommend ladybird manor to everyone looking for an outstanding child care centre, because it is ahead of the rest. Thanks Annie and team!

While w try to keep a lid on just how out of spec we behave, we're a pair of first time, older parents with plans for just one child, which gave us time and experience (and a degree of poise, i like to think) to inspect and dwell on many of the day care facilities around the CBD, and after some reflection and review, Ladybird Manor stood out as the place we felt most comfortable entrusting with our one shot at new life. Ladybird Manor's caring staff comprises a collection of real people with well honed and diverse skills, and into whose care even the fussiest or most apprehensive parents will feel safe leaving their wee beasties. While the parents go off to do the things they've learned to make their place in the world, theyll feel secure knowing their child is in an environmemt where they can safely learn to do the same. In summary, is good. Woud send second and third child if they existed.
