What the parents say

"This is the first daycare my son has ever went to, I was ball full of emotions. Meeting the teachers I felt so much better! Sonny Ray LOVES school, he runs up to the door and always tells me about his teachers! ...He's learning so much there and comes home telling me about his day and his friends. He brings home beautiful art, it’s just a breath of fresh air knowing he is happy and loves his school. I love how they write down how much he ate in the app and when his nappy was changed! My absolute favourite is the photos of him playing at school. I highly recommend Little Zak's at Adamstown"

"We have been delighted with Little Zaks Adamstown - our little girl absolutely loves it there. The rooms are great, they have appropriate toys and activities and the outdoor area is excellent. She has made lots of friends and we are quite often amazed by the new skills she brings home from the centre. She has been assisted tremendously through her potty training journey there as well. A big thank you to the educators and 'non-educator' staff who do such an amazing job with out little ones!"

We simply love that our little one comes home with a smile, and with stories to tell us. The educators often have lovely stories to tell us about the day when we pick up which makes us feel like they genuinely care about the kids -- not just minding them until they go home. The staff are friendly, accommodating and professional. I recommend it for anyone. Read more

Really happy with the level of care from his educators, including the attention given to emotional wellbeing and development of social skills. He loves his time at Little Zak’s and comes home talking about the fun things he did. Soccer classes are a favourite! We’ve found they do a really great job when it comes to school readiness. This has given my son a great foundation to head into big school next year. Really lovely, caring and committed educators and staff. Thanks guys! Read more
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! It’s lovely to know he’s enjoying the activities (we agree, soccer is always a hit!) and that our school readiness program has given him a strong foundation for his next step into big school.

Unfortunately, my experience with Little Zak’s after my child’s last day (30 June 2025) has been disappointing. Despite the centre’s error in overcharging me, I have been left waiting over a month for a refund with no clear explanation or timeframe provided. I followed up multiple times and was continually given vague responses. As of now, I’ve had to escalate the matter to NSW Fair Trading due to the lack of resolution and transparency. This has been frustrating and stressful, especially given it was entirely avoidable. I expected better accountability and communication from a professional childcare provider. Read more

We recently had the pleasure of touring Little Zac's Mount Hutton, and we couldn't be more impressed with what we saw. From the moment we walked in, we felt a sense of warmth and care that truly set this centre apart. The facilities are well-designed, spacious, and welcoming, providing an ideal environment for young children to learn and grow. What really stood out to us, however, were the educators. Their professionalism and dedication were evident in every interaction. They clearly care deeply about the children, and their approach to early childhood education is both nurturing and thoughtful. During our tour, it was evident that each educator takes the time to engage with the children, fostering a sense of security and curiosity that will be invaluable to our little one. We are excited for our child to start at Little Zac's Mount Hutton and confident that the nurturing and stimulating environment, combined with such passionate educators, will support our child's development and well-being. If you're looking for a childcare centre that offers both a caring atmosphere and a strong educational foundation, we highly recommend Little Zac's Mount Hutton. Read more

The staff are friendly and take a keen interest in the best way to care and nurture the children. Drop offs and pick ups have become easy because of the relationships the staff have built with both ourselves (parents) and children. Awesome to see what the kids get up to daily via the app and through the conversations had with the staff upon pick up. Children get everything from outside playing and exploring, right through to building social connection/skills with others. The children love the food prepared by an in house professional. Have been to a few of their after care functions (Father’s Day, etc) now and had a great time. Great choice going here and would recommend. Read more
