Aspire Childcare Centre - Ashbury, Armstrong Creek Centre overview
Opening in late 2024, Aspire Early Education Ashbury, Armstrong Creek, is located within The Square Ashbury shopping complex. The centre is conveniently close to local schools and parks. Aspire Ashbury features 8 spacious rooms supporting children's development from six weeks to six years old.
With a homely vibe and plenty of room to explore, children will thrive within our play-based programs. We believe that every child deserves a quality education, and that their individual talents deserve to be recognised. We strive to help nurture and cultivate children’s sense of identity, belonging, and self-confidence that will ease the transition into school and allow them to flourish in life.
At Aspire Early Education and Kindergarten, we understand that your goal as a parent is to enhance your child’s full potential by providing them with the best possible start in life. We believe children respond, learn, and grow better in positive community environments. Whether this relates to our families, children, educators, or the local community, all these parts are important to work together to provide a safe place of learning where children are nurtured to reach their full potential.

The management has turned over multiple times and unfortunately each new manager seems to make this place worse. Communication was virtually non existent, and when concerns were raised, management showed little interest in listening. The environment itself was often chaotic. Rooms and toilets were consistently messy, and on many occasions I noticed the staff to child ratios weren’t being met. Basic needs weren’t prioritised either, children didn’t always have easy access to a toilet. Rather than engaging with the kids through reading, staff would sometimes just put on YouTube videos of someone else reading books. Nutrition was another major concern. We repeatedly saw children being served sultanas and grated cheese as their “meal,” with little thought for a balanced diet. On top of that, the centre’s security was inadequate, the front door wouldn’t shut or latch properly, meaning anyone could have walked in unchecked. There was rarely anyone at reception to monitor who came and went. There was a particular incident that significantly upset our son after being dragged across the room by his head because he did not want to hug that child. We fully recognise that challenging behaviours can happen in any childcare setting; however, what deeply concerned us was how this situation was handled by Aspire’s management. A member of the management team told us that our son “should’ve just let the boy hug him,” implying that he was at fault for setting a boundary. This response was incredibly disappointing and showed a lack of understanding about teaching children consent, boundaries, and how to appropriately manage conflict. Overall, the lack of care, poor management, non existent communication and unsafe environment made us deeply concerned for our child’s wellbeing at Aspire. Read more

As a new family walking in to explore childcare options, I was warmly welcomed at Aspire Ramlegh even though I didn’t have a booked tour. The staff greeted me with big smiles and happily took the time to show me around the centre. The space is absolutely beautiful , clean, bright, and thoughtfully set up. What stood out the most was the way the information was shared with me. Everything was explained clearly, especially around the childcare subsidy and the steps I need to take for enrolment. A special thank you to Soulayma for her kindness and patience. As a first-time parent new to Australia, she made me feel comfortable and ensured I understood everything. Her support meant a lot. Thank you again you have a beautiful centre and a truly welcoming environment. Read more

We are so happy and grateful for the whole team at Aspire Early Education Clyde North for the amazing care they provide. Both my son and daughter absolutely love being there! They especially enjoy spending time with Tiny Tim, the pet turtle—it’s one of their favorite things to see each day. Aspire also offers a wonderful variety of incursions and excursions, which keeps the kids excited and engaged. We love seeing how involved the children are in their activities, and we truly appreciate how the educators consistently share photos and daily reflections through the app—it helps us feel connected and reassured. A big thank you to the entire Aspire team, especially the amazing educators in the Joeys and Kookaburra rooms. With love, Hazel, Ethan, and family 💕🐢✨ Read more
