A lovely, family owned and run daycare. It is clean and well looked after, the staff have all been there very long term and my children are always happy to go (and then don't want to leave). I would highly recommend.

This is such an incredible family run daycare center, the owners truly love what they do and it filters through. My daughter loved every minute of her time at Dolphin Ave Early Learning Center, she formed beautiful bonds with multiple teachers. I never questioned if she was safe or looked after, communication was incredible and the team would always did what they could to make sure she was supported.
