We couldn't be happier with the care and support we have received from the team at Nido Ascot Vale. From the very beginning, the educators have created a warm, nurturing and engaging environment for our daughter. It has been amazing to watch our daughter grow in confidence and curiosity during her time here. She is always excited for her daycare days! A special shout out to Ruffa, Sylv, Gemma, Vernisha and Yoyo for the incredible work they do every day and the role they have played in making the transition to daycare a seamless one.

We love Nido Ascot Vale. The educators are brilliant. My baby is very attached, but will happily say bye to me if she has her favourite educator (Gemma) there. My older son also speaks about inviting his old educator (Priyanka) to all his parties. As an anxious parent, I feel incredibly comfortable leaving my children with the team. Management by Rachel (or Ms. Rachel as my son calls her) is always kind, compassionate and dedicated. Thanks guys for being fab.

Both our Kids have loved their Years at Nido Ascot Vale. Caring Educators and Staff that give amazing personalised Learning and attention to detail. Its our Youngest Childs last Year there so will be sad when we are no longer involved........ Hope to stay in touch with several of the staff.!!

Disappointing when raising issues it was not met with adequate action, particularly when caring for a child under the age of 1. Child was moved out of care after a very short time and there was no follow up upon advising that we would be leaving.

After one to two months of research and visits to multiple childcare centres in the area, my wife and I felt this centre was a suitable option. One of our key considerations—particularly in light of recent events—was that no male staff were employed at the time. Two weeks into our daughter’s attendance, a male staff member was hired, and the centre was unable to guarantee that there would always be two staff members present when he was caring for her or someone else be present during nappy changes. We are not prepared to take any risks with our daughter’s safety or place her in a situation where safeguards cannot be guaranteed, especially given the recent events in Melbourne. As parents, this is not a gamble we are willing to take.

We have had a truly wonderful experience with Nido. From management to the ground staff, the level of care, professionalism, and warmth has been exceptional. The educators treat my son with such genuine love and attention; it’s clear how much they value and nurture each child. He comes home every day talking about them by name (and he’s only two!), which says everything about the bond they have built with him. It’s incredibly reassuring as a parent to know he is in such capable and caring hands. The positive impact they’ve had on his development and sense of belonging is something we are very grateful for.

From the very first day I brought my seven-month-old to the centre, I felt such a sense of calm and care. It’s amazing how they’ve kept that same feeling all these years. My son is now five, and as we prepare to say goodbye at the end of the year, we’re honestly so sad to be leaving. The educators, managers, and front desk team have all been so kind, supportive, and genuinely caring. We’re forever grateful for the love and guidance they’ve given our son, this place has truly felt like a second home.

We have had our two children attend NIDO Ascot Vale over many years and have been very happy with the service. For a period of time we did trial another daycare in the area, however quickly returned as we realised the experience for our children, communication with parents and the genuine care/relationships for the entire family unit was far superior. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend Nido Ascot Vale - caring staff committed to child wellbeing and development. Educators and Admin are friendly, helpful and always prepare exciting and creative experiences based on children’s interests. The centre is clean and calm with a great chef/kitchen. I initially had concerns about the balconies and not having a traditional yard but the kids absolutely love it - they have plenty of space to explore as they progress through the rooms.

I’ve had such a positive experience with Nido Ascot Vale. I really value the genuine care all of the educators show my daughter – it’s clear they truly know her and want the best for her. What I especially love is that it’s not just the educators in her room who know her well. At early morning drop-off she has the chance to interact with different staff members and other children, which makes the centre feel like one big community. Communication is fantastic from the educators and office staff, and I always feel informed and reassured about her day. She’s always happy and content when I pick her up, and I feel confident knowing she’s in safe hands every day. Big thanks to Bree and the team for creating such a wonderful, welcoming community at Nido.
