Raquel and the team are like a family. They genuinely care for the kids, take interest in their likes and dislikes and support them to grow with such knowledge and depth. They are community of educators, creating a community of children who care about each other and share so much joy in playing and learning.

Amazing service at MELC. Lovely and friendly staff who make you feel at home. A lovely community has been built and we are lucky to be apart of it.

Great staff, great activities and outdoor environment, calm nurturing educators. We are very happy here!

Our three children have attended MELC and we just love this centre, they could not be in better hands. The amazing Raquel and the fabulous team are such wonderful, skilled and caring educators and all three of our children have thrived there and developed very strong relationships.<br><br>My eldest started in his kindy year - it was the fourth centre he attended as we moved around when he was younger, and my youngest two started around 18 months. We were attracted to MELC's small, organic family feel and risky play philosophy. The kindy and school transition program has been excellent for both of my boys.<br><br>We have come to consider the team as a hugely valuable part our village given we have no extended family nearby. Most of them have been around for a long time and my eldest still loves to come back and have a chat. I love that they are so accommodating of each kid's individual needs and have worked with us to help them settle and feel secure at their own pace as this was not always my experience with other centres.<br><br>They are so nurturing and engaged, they are very skilled at delivering the educational program in a way that allows for exploration of the children's interest, and it is evident that they really see the children and meet them where they are at. We are so incredibly grateful they safe and in such wonderful hands :)

Amazing kind small fun centre with supportive educators that know and care for each one of the kids to support their development.

The most wonderful early childhood centre. Most of the staff have been there since my first child started there nearly 9 years ago. They are incredibly caring, and genuinely love all the kids. They are like a second family. My youngest is about to move to prep next year and we are really going to miss the entire team. Couldn't have asked for a better childcare and kindy for our family.

An absolutely beautiful centre - our children are wonderfully cared for by smart, creative, modern educators who value the joy of child-directed, playbased learning. Led by the inimitable Miss Raquel, our kids' early education has been elevated by the socially-conscious, always fascinating imaginings of the kids and their interests. I simply cannot recommend this centre enough.
