We’ve been part of Grimshaw St for almost three years, and I can’t speak highly enough of the educators and the care they provide. The early childhood profession is going through a really tough time, but this centre has always made us feel nothing but supported, trusted, and valued. My child has been loved, guided, and encouraged every single day which is such a relief as a parent to know your child is in the hands of people who genuinely care. We’re so grateful for everything the team has done, you’ve helped shape the happiest little boy, and we couldn’t have asked for more.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Emma, and for being part of our Grimshaw St ELC community over the past three years. We’re so grateful for your acknowledgement, trust, and support. The current scrutiny of the early childhood education sector is deeply troubling for families and for the vast majority of educators who are incredibly dedicated and consistently do the right thing. These professionals take their commitment seriously, demonstrating integrity, genuine care, and passion for ensuring children are safe, inspired, and encouraged on their developmental journey. Feedback like yours has so much power to keep our educators motivated during these challenging times and reminds our team how deeply valued they are. It has been a privilege to watch your child grow, learn, and develop into such a happy, confident little person. Thank you again for recognising the care and passion our educators bring to their work, your appreciation genuinely uplifts and inspires us all.

A year after leaving Grimshaw St ELC (we moved from Greensborough to the other side of Melbourne), I brought my son back to visit his old educators yesterday. I could go on and on about how wonderful this place was for him, but the fact we happily drove 45 minutes a year later just to come back and see everyone says it all. My son has now attended two different daycares, and I can honestly say Grimshaw St ELC cared for him the most. If you’re looking for people who genuinely love and care for your child, these are the people you want around them.

Response from the owner 23 Sep 2025

Hi Saren, We were delighted to see you and your son back catching up with old friends and his educators. We are all genuinely thankful for your kind words.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience at Grimshaw Street ELC over the past year. Our child started in the Sprouts Room, where the educators were truly amazing—caring, attentive, and always creating a fun, nurturing environment. Now that we've moved up to a new room, it's clear that every team at the centre brings the same high level of dedication and warmth. Ara, the Centre Manager, builds genuine trust and connection with families, and her leadership creates a reliable, welcoming space for both children and parents. We feel confident and grateful knowing our child is so well supported across all stages of their early learning journey.

Response from the owner 23 Sep 2025

Thank you so much for your review Mahsa. Ara will be delighted to hear that our learning program is so well regarded.

About Grimshaw Street Early Learning Centre

Welcome to Grimshaw St Early Learning Centre where we support every child to learn and grow at their own pace and in their own unique way.

We welcome children from six weeks to school age, with a four year old kindergarten program. We offer a secure and safe environment where curiosity is encouraged, concepts are explored and discovery is celebrated. The children experience the power of learning together in large and small groups while still pursuing their own individual learning pathways.

At Grimshaw St ELC we believe that it takes a village to raise a child therefore we are eager to be active partners and create collaborative relationships with families and their community.
