I would love too thank Bernie and Chloe for their amazing work on taking care of my son, within weeks of my son being apart of Journey Early Learning he is reaching all of his milestones and completing all of his tasks. My son always comes home happy and has so much to show and tell me. I couldn't be any happier with the choice I have made for my son on taking him to this childcare, I would highly recommend as all the workers I have met so far have been friendly, kind and caring towards myself and my son. As a single mum being sceptical about certain childcare centres I can assure you that this is definitely the best one. My son loves it here and I can't wait for many more to come. Thankyou so much guys really apperciate all the hard work and efforts into my son.

Response from the owner 30 Mar 2026

Thank you so much for your kind words — it truly means a lot to us. Seeing your son feel happy, confident and proud of what he is learning is exactly what we aim for every day. Supporting children as they grow, reach their milestones and build a love for learning is something we care deeply about, and it is so special to hear this reflected in your experience. We also understand how important trust and reassurance are, especially when choosing care for your child. Creating a place where both children and families feel supported, welcomed and genuinely cared for is at the heart of everything we do. Thank you for being part of our community and for allowing us to be part of your son’s journey — we are so excited for all the moments still to come.

This is the worst childcare experience I’ve ever had. The staff come across as unprofessional and uninterested, often looking like they don’t even want to be there. The manager is frequently outside smoking, which doesn’t give confidence in the level of supervision or leadership. The educators don’t meaningfully engage with the children, and there’s a clear lack of communication with parents. We received no photos or updates on Storypark, which is very disappointing and concerning. Overall, I would not recommend this centre.

Took my daughter out after a few month. Centre manager is never in the office, often too busy walking out to have a cigarette noticed by many parents not just myself. We asked if we could get more photos and even daily updates; it was as if they were too busy to do that. When there were so many educators: to student ratio… They don’t celebrate birthdays and dont make special occasions a big deal. Example Valentine’s Day and Chinese new year. The kids didn’t do any paintings etc. (compared to other childcare centres) When short staffed, they replace workers with a male educator from another Journey branch (after being told they DO NOT AND WILL NOT have male educators here). This male educator was left alone with a bunch of kids that morning when I dropped my daughter off. I instantly took her home. When raising the concern, was told by the centre manager that the “performance manager” made this mistake of replacing the temp worker and didn’t notify any parents…. Surely doubt that. Once I took my daughter out, chased up on the bond via email and a phone call. Was told I’d get a call back but never did. Also no email reply. (Because once again, Bernie is rarely in the office) at this point, I don’t give a shit about the bond. They can read this review
