An exceptional early learning centre that truly lives up to their name. Over 25 years of raising children and now Grandchildren I have seen many education settings and NELC is like no other. An incredibly nurturing environment with remarkable accountability of care of emotional, physical, psychological and educational support for children and their Families. Consistently witnessing high level of expectations of Staff in a warm and progressive environment. An early learning centre that feels like home with a curriculum they should be extremely proud of. Keep up the good work, it is truly appreciated and visibly shines through the children each day as they grow. Has been beautiful to witness. A centre that encompasses all children need before Primary School. We will be sad to leave next Year for Kindergarten but thanks to you we are more than ready.

Response from the owner 16 Apr 2026

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind and thoughtful words, Kerry! Your feedback truly means the world to our team. It has been a privilege to be part of your family’s journey and to bring you support along the way. Creating a nurturing, supportive environment that feels like a true home away from home, where children and families feel a strong sense of belonging, is at the heart of everything we do, so it’s incredibly special to hear that reflected in your experience. Knowing that our care, values, and curriculum are visible in the children as they grow is exactly what we strive for each day. While we will be sad to say goodbye next year, we are so proud to know they are heading into Kindergarten feeling confident, capable, and ready. Thank you again for your trust and for allowing us to be part of such an important stage in your family’s life.

Our daughter loves Neighbourhood and we couldn't recommend it more highly. We looked at almost 7 different local daycares but from the moment we walked into Neighbourhood we knew it was the one. The team is great & our daughter now runs in every morning so excited to be there, she doesn't even look back and say bye! We love how when there's space we can book in for adhoc days and all of the carers are fabulous. It's a beautiful centre too.

This childcare has a warm and professional atmosphere that gives you real peace of mind when leaving your child in their care. I recently moved my son here and couldn’t be happier with the decision. The management and staff are approachable, caring, and genuinely supportive. We’ll truly miss them when my son starts school next year.
