My son has been attending Little Zak’s Academy Ryde since he was 9 months old after it was highly recommended by a close friend whose son was also enrolled there. From the very beginning, we have had such a positive experience and have never looked back. The educators are absolutely wonderful — caring, supportive, and genuinely invested in the children. My son adores them, and it has always given me great comfort knowing he is in such a nurturing environment. Every staff member we have interacted with has been kind, professional, and approachable, and I truly cannot fault the team. We are now in our final year before he heads off to big school, and it will be very emotional to say goodbye. At the same time, I feel incredibly confident that he will be well prepared for this next stage thanks to everything he has learned and experienced at Little Zak’s Ryde. Thank you to the entire team for the care, support, and dedication you have shown our family over the years. I will be sure to recommend the centre!

All teachers are professionals, friendly and lovely!

I recommend Little Zak's Academy Ryde because its educators are professionals and put a lot of effort into the care, education, and organization of the different activities. They offer a wide range of activities in class and have a great syllabus focused on kindy.

Honestly, we couldn’t be happier with Little Zak’s Academy Ryde. The team is absolutely wonderful, and from day one we’ve felt so comfortable leaving our baby in their care. It truly feels like he is one of their own — the carers are so warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in him. They get just as excited as we do to see him grow, progress, and reach new developmental milestones, which means so much to us as parents. We can clearly see how happy and settled he is at the centre, and that speaks volumes. The carers give each child such thoughtful, individual attention, and it creates such a nurturing environment. We’re honestly so grateful to have found Little Zak’s Ryde — highly recommend to any parents looking for a caring, supportive, and engaging daycare.

Wonderful, caring, attentive educators. Excellent facilities and curriculum. Our 3 year old has such a wonderful time there and learns so much with a variety of interesting activities!

Our 1-year-old twins attend Little Zack Academy in Ryde, and we’ve had a great experience. The staff are caring and attentive, and the centre is always clean and well-organised. Our babies settled in so well—they’ve never cried at drop-off, which says a lot about how comfortable they feel there. We’re really happy with the care and would recommend it to other parents.

I’ve had a really positive experience with Little Zak’s Childcare. The staff are very kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Their approach is modern and supportive, and they don’t use outdated methods like “time-out”. Instead, they focus on helping children understand their emotions and develop strong social skills. My son has benefited a lot from their program, including sports activities like football, swimming, and strong support in early literacy and numeracy. They also have farm animals such as chickens and roosters on site, and the children get hands-on experiences like feeding the animals and collecting eggs, which is wonderful for their learning and development. The food and meals provided are also very tasty. Even though my son is usually a picky eater, he enjoys most of the meals and eats them happily. I also really appreciate that they involve children in cooking activities from an early age and teach them that cooking is not related to gender roles, which is very important to me. The centre manager is very flexible and understanding, always taking families’ circumstances into consideration. Most importantly, my son wakes up every morning excited and genuinely happy to go to childcare and that means everything to me.

Truly grateful for everything the educators have done for both my kids. Great centre with even better educators.
