We absolutely love Explore & Develop Baulkham Hills. The educators are warm, caring, and truly dedicated to each child’s wellbeing and development. The environment is nurturing and welcoming, and we’ve seen so much growth and confidence in our child. We feel very grateful to be part of such a wonderful centre and highly recommend it. 💛

I have nothing but kind words to say about Explore and Develop Baulkham Hills. My child loves the educators and the fun activities planned for the kids each day by Merran and the team. She eagerly looks forward to heading out to class each day. There is a genuine sense of community fostered by Merran and the center is exceptional in handling children who need special attention. The STAR program has been instrumental in helping my child out when she first joined the center.

The wonderful team at Explore & Develop made my son feel so welcome when he first started at the centre. He has loved going everyday and I have seen him thrive ✨️ His comfort and willingness to show up everyday tells me we've found the right place!

This is a childcare service with heart. The moment you walk in, you can feel the positive energy — the educators genuinely love what they do, and it shows. The rapport among the staff reflects a strong, supportive workplace culture that translates into happy educators and, most importantly, happy children. Merran, the owner, is deeply hands-on. Her philosophy of community shines through in everything the centre does — from weekend Easter picnics that bring families together, to heartfelt fundraisers supporting families in need. Tabatha, a key member of the leadership team, greets every child by name and her energy is infectious; it’s clear the children adore her. The management also stays ahead of emerging issues in the childcare sector, responding thoughtfully and putting effective measures in place. I highly recommend Explore & Develop Baulkham Hills to any family looking for a place that truly prioritises children’s wellbeing and growth in a caring, connected environment.

Unfortunately, our time at this child care centre was sort of disappointing. Although the centre has some fantastic educators who they really care about kids, some are very impatient. We noticed, time that some educators talking with intimidating tone with kids, which we had to talk and calm our kids for a few hours once he back home. Some educators must be more paitent with kids and consider their actions and tone, impacts their kids confidence.

A place where the staff truly care for your kids, and they learn so much. If you want to give your kid the best start to life, can recommend

Explore & Develop has been absolutely amazing for our family. Both of our children are thriving thanks to the caring educators, nurturing environment, and fantastic learning programs. Communication is excellent, and we always feel confident they are in safe, supportive hands. We couldn’t be happier!

Our family has had such a wonderful experience with Explore & Develop Baulkham Hills. From the moment we joined, we’ve felt welcomed, supported, and confident that our children are in the best hands. The educators are genuinely caring and attentive, and it’s clear how much heart they put into everything they do. We’ve seen such positive growth in our eldest - in confidence, communication, and curiosity. They come home excited to share what they’ve learnt and experienced, which speaks volumes about the quality of care and learning happening each day. We’re truly grateful to be part of this amazing community. It gives us peace of mind knowing our children are in such a safe, nurturing, and inspiring environment. E&D is our village.

Explore and Develop has been amazing with my daughter. I cannot fault them in anyway. From day one they have been welcoming, the communication has been great. The teachers treat your child like an individual not a group, which is great to see. The director Merran is fabulous as well as the rest of the team. I highly recommend them to everyone.

A daycare with an incredible director and super supportive and caring staff and wonderful facilities. We have been to several daycares over the years due to moving and what not and we haven’t looked back since starting my youngest daughter here nearly two years ago. This surely has to be the absolute best daycare in the whole area.
