Our experience with this centre did not meet our expectations. We were concerned by what we felt was inconsistent management of our concerns and limited communication regarding incidents involving our child. At times, we felt our concerns as parents were not adequately acknowledged or addressed. We also found some interactions with staff came across as less supportive and empathetic than we had hoped for in a childcare environment. Every family’s experience may differ, but based on our own experience, we did not feel confident continuing care at this centre.

We absolutely love Cameron Park Early Learning Centre. From the moment you walk in the door, you feel welcomed. The administration team are so helpful with all the CCS and fee side of things, which makes everything easy and stress-free. Our daughter has truly blossomed since starting here and looks forward to going every week. The staff are all fantastic — so genuine, attentive, and caring. We honestly can’t fault them. We’re so grateful to have them as part of our daughter’s growth and early learning journey.

Enrol babies with caution and be explicit with what they can and cannot eat! In early April 2025 my son started care at Cameron Park Early Learning, he was 7.5months old. By late May, my son was 9months old, feeding through a combination of baby led weaning and purée’s for 3 months - to him, food was still very new and he had a sensitive gag reflex. At this age and developmental stage, he was fed a corn thin. This resulted in a serious choking incident which required first aid back blows to dislodge. Room leader, Sandra was wonderful and honest about the incident (2-3 minutes choking and he turned blue) but from all other aspects, the incident was handled poorly. Our concerns of children’s safety, communication barriers and foods offered to babies were completely dismissed by Director Julie, who argued that ‘corn thins are a soft suitable baby led weaning option for babies and not on a chocking hazard list’ - ultimately we agreed to disagree here and interactions (or lack of interaction) from educators following the incident resulted in a lack of trust. We decided we could not send our child back to this service. Admin Sharon handled our feedback and decision to unenrol well, and met all of our requests and more without hesitation. Management Catherine reached out to us regarding the incident after we unenrolled. I can’t fault her actions and she’s expressed that she has worked with the service to implement strategies to prevent incidents like this occurring in the future. She was very understanding and wanted to repair the relationship following what was described as behaviours that were not acceptable. Our child required medical treatment for abnormal breathing that followed, x-rays for suspected aspiration and did not eat for around 4 weeks following the incident - it was clear he had suffered trauma. 3 months have passed since the incident and we are working with a feeding therapist, developing strategies to support our son in increasing his delayed feeding skills after not eating for a month. At his new daycare he will not sit in a high chair to eat and has an insecure relationship with food, with is slowly improving. While upper management, administration and some educators are wonderful here, I would not consider reenrolling my child under the current Director.

We have had our children at Cameron Park ELC since the start of 2020. We had a very poor experience previously so we were nervous to try a new centre. They have been amazing from the beginning, the staff feel like family to our kids and the day our youngest leaves will be a very sad day. They have helped our children grow and learn in so many ways, we couldn't imagine them being anywhere else for their early years.

Kate the director represents everything this industry should be, at the highest level, she goes above and beyond for family’s and their children, she genuinely cares, also the educators were so incredible, thank you so much Kate for all your wonderful work ☺️

Our three children were privileged to attend CPELC over a 7 year period and in that time we could not have asked for a more dedicated team. The educators and teachers were so responsive to our children's developmental and learning needs and always showed the utmost care to us as a family. The whole centre exudes a warmth, happy and welcoming feel, where you are confident to entrust your children to professionals who are committed to ensure the environment and learning programs are always of a high quality. The team always actively communicated our children's learning, routines and experiences across the day. The team are long-standing, many of them being employed for over 10 years, which I see as a reflection of a happy and positive environment. Our children have benefitted so much from their early learning experience at Cameron Park ELC and are now thriving at school.

I cannot recommend this centre enough. From the moment I walked in with my eldest I could see it was a place where not only my childrens needs would be met both physically but emotionally. The staff are warm, nurturing, creative and highly trained. The physical environment is sophisticated yet natural, meeting all of my kids interests with purpose built areas for the babies up to the big kids. From the welcoming faces at the door to the yummy food they are fed and everything in between, it's not just our kids who are comfortable and happy with this centre.

A great service with responsive, caring educators. Always welcomed warmly each morning and all concerns are treated with high importance.

Cameron Park Early Learning centre is a family focused early childhood centre with professionally trained staff and quality education and care. I cannot recommend this centre highly enough. Both my children attended until they started school. We were sad when our time at CPELC ended.

CPELC is simply the best! Staff are amazing! The environment is happy and welcoming. Communication is excellent. Our daughter simply loves it here. If you are considering CPELC - do it!
