We couldn’t be happier with our experience at The Woods. From the very beginning, it has been clear that the educators genuinely take the time to know each child as an individual. They understand children’s personalities, interests and needs so well, and that care and attentiveness shines through every day.
Our children absolutely love being there, and it’s obvious how much fun they are having. That joy comes from knowing they are safe, supported and truly cared for. The environment feels calm, warm and intentional, and the relationships between educators and children are clearly strong and trusting. I am really impressed by the introduction of the floor book because it means that the learning is genuinely driven by the students' interests.
Drop-offs and pick-ups are another standout. Mornings are smooth and reassuring, and at the end of the day the educators always take the time to share a brief but meaningful update about how the day has gone. Those conversations make such a difference to me and reinforce how closely they are tuned in to each child’s experience.
The kindergarten program at The Woods is exceptional. An enormous amount of thought, care and expertise has gone into designing a program that is both adventurous and deeply respectful of children. The regular time spent in the local woods and creek, playing, exploring and learning safely in nature is truly special and unlike anything else we’ve heard our friends with children in daycare experience. This is beautifully complemented by well-chosen excursions, including trips to Bunyaville and Australia Zoo, which extend children’s learning in authentic and memorable ways.
The Woods is a place where children are known, cared for and encouraged to thrive. It is really well managed by Jess and her team and I also feel heard when I talk to them. We feel incredibly fortunate to be part of such a thoughtful, nurturing and inspiring community.
