We have sent 2 children through Carey Lane ELC. The care the educators show our children and family is exemplary. They truly get to know the children, and bring out their confidence and strengths with such gentleness and kindness. Our 4 year old left last year to start pre-prep and the transition was extremely smooth thanks to Carey Lane - she is ahead with her learning & extremely confident with her self-help skills thanks to them, and the same goes for our near 2 year old. We couldn't recommend them more highly.

We are so happy we chose Carey Lane for our daughter! From day one, the staff have been incredibly welcoming and made the whole transition so much easier for our family. You can genuinely see how much they care for each child. It gives you such peace of mind as a parent. I would recommend Carey Lane to any family that is looking for care for there children.

We have had our son at Carey Lane for the past 5 months now and have been blown away with how great the staff are. We had our daughter (now at school) and son at another Southport child care for the previous couple years and this centre blows it out of the water. It has a small, family type vibe and again, the staff are top notch. Highly recommended.
