I attended the Storybrooke Education Open Day in Brookvale and was so impressed. The centre is absolutely beautiful and thoughtfully designed for children and families. The atmosphere felt warm, calm and genuinely welcoming from the moment we walked in. You can really see the imaginative learning spaces throughout the centre, which feel very different to a typical daycare environment.

Thank you so much for coming to our Open Day and for your lovely feedback. We really wanted Storybrooke to feel warm, calm and different to a typical daycare setting, so it means a lot that you felt that when you walked through the doors 💚

Highly recommend this daycare. From the moment you walk in, the interiors feel warm, thoughtfully designed, and incredibly well maintained - clean, bright, and clearly set up to support both play and learning. What really stands out is the professionalism of the staff. Every interaction comes across as calm, respectful, and genuinely attentive. The team feels highly organised and, importantly, very trustworthy - exactly what you’d hope for in a childcare setting. A special mention to Linda, the owner, who clearly sets the tone for the entire centre. Her care, attention to detail, and commitment to creating a high-quality, nurturing environment really shine through. Overall, it’s a centre that operates to a very high standard, with a strong focus on children’s wellbeing and development. Definitely worth considering.

Response from the owner 04 May 2026

We’ve had such a wonderful experience at Storybrooke! The environment is beautiful, and the educators are so kind and caring. It has truly helped build my child’s confidence and happiness. I’m especially impressed by the owner, Linda—her strong background in early learning and her genuine care as a mother of three really show in their teaching philosophy. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a supportive and high-quality early learning space!💕
