We’ve been part of the Only About Children Carindale community for over 3 years, and choosing this centre for our children has been one of the best decisions our family has made. From the very beginning, Julie, Nat, and the entire team have created a warm, nurturing, and genuinely supportive environment where our children have thrived socially, emotionally, and developmentally. One of the standout qualities of OAC Carindale is the low turnover of educators. Seeing the same familiar, caring faces each day has helped our children build strong, trusting relationships and given us great confidence and continuity as parents. The educators truly know each child as an individual and provide tailored experiences, guidance, and encouragement to help them grow and flourish at every stage. The attention to detail throughout the centre is exceptional. From the Nursery stage, our babies were always clean, well rested, happy, and very well cared for. We particularly appreciate how proactive and attentive the team is when it comes to children’s health and wellbeing — any signs of illness are identified and communicated quickly, with thoughtful measures taken to help limit any potential spread through the centre. As parents, that level of care and vigilance provides enormous peace of mind- it also means our children are rarely unwell. Most importantly, our children genuinely love attending OAC Carindale. They are constantly learning, growing in confidence, and coming home excited to share what they’ve experienced each day. The centre has built such a strong sense of community for both children and families, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care, professionalism, and dedication shown by every member of the team. We would wholeheartedly recommend Only About Children Carindale to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and high-quality early learning environment.

I just want to thank Julie for giving my daughter (who is neurodiverse) her first big break working in childcare - as well as her team for welcoming her with lots of support. It just shows her (and her team) compassion, kindness and understanding. Although we never got the chance to speak to each other, from the bottom of my heart, I just want to express my heartfelt thank you.

Response from the owner 28 Jan 2026

Hi Johnson, Thank you so much for sharing this with us. We really appreciate you taking the time to recognise Julie and the team for the care, compassion, and support they showed your daughter. Creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where every child feels supported and understood is incredibly important to us, and your words mean a great deal. Kind regards, The OAC Team
