We have been here for over a year now and my son has done nothing but thrive. From the educators to management you are made to feel like family. Notable mentions would be maddi, tia, simi, angie, chontae and karen i believe in giving credit where credit is due and have all played a massive key role from the beginning of our journey. I couldnt be more greatful for the care my son receives daily and knowing that hes safe and loved.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Gaven Early Learning. From the very first tour with Karen, we felt completely at ease. She was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the centre, which gave us so much confidence in our decision. Our daughter Emily started daycare earlier than we had originally planned, and naturally we were a little nervous. But the team has been absolutely incredible. The educators are caring, attentive, and truly invested in the children’s development. They made the transition so smooth and ensured Emily felt safe, supported, and loved from day one. We’ve watched her grow into such a social, confident, and advanced little girl, and we honestly credit so much of that to the amazing teachers who care for her every day. It’s clear they put so much thought and effort into creating a nurturing and stimulating environment. We’re beyond grateful to the entire team at Gaven Early Learning and would highly recommend this centre to any family looking for exceptional care and education for their child.

Our son has been more than happy at the facility, enjoys going always wants to stay longer! They go through a great deal of effort with their events as well! Would recommend! Thanks to all the staff!

We’ve had nothing but a fantastic experience at Gaven Early learning. My daughter and son both attended there ( kindy and senior ) and I couldn’t think of anywhere better for them. They’re provided with structure and care along with so many ‘extras’ other daycares don’t offer. Bush kindy, Nursing home visits, library visits and swimming lessons. The educators are all fantastic the kids absolutely adore all their teachers Angi, Simmi, Maddy, Tia , Allen and all of the rest. Karen has been wonderful to deal with for us. The centre is managed and ran really well and there is so much effort out in by all to ensure the kids and parents have the best experience. My daughter will be off to school next year and has had the most incredible Kindy year at Gaven. Thank you to all the staff ❤️

I can highly recommend Gaven Early Learning centre my son has been there for a year now and has had the most amazing educators, they are kind,caring and supportive. Lots of excursions a favourite of his is swimming. A bonus they do healthy meals everyday so i know he eats well.

Gaven ELC is well-marketed and beautifully renovated but poorly resourced and poorly represented. An honest tagline might be: "A crying child is an inconvenience to ignore, silence, or shame. Parents will be lied to, and their requests ignored." If you want your child’s needs, health history, and wellbeing overlooked - or to have the same conversations daily without resolution - this is the place for you. Educators urgently need professional development in emotional regulation strategies, age-appropriate practices, and effective communication. The attitudes and values we experienced are decades out of touch. Several principles of the Early Years Learning Framework failed to be met for my children, particularly elements of Outcomes 1, 2 and 3. For children to feel safe, secure, supported, and have a strong sense of wellbeing, staff must first display empathy and respect themselves. Children deserve grace, love, and support; ours did not receive that here. We moved to Gaven ELC intending to stay for the next 8/9 years but left within three months, deeply disappointed. I highly recommend families keep all communication in writing for a record of contact. I have never left a negative review in my life, but families deserve this insight—we could have saved so much trouble. We’ve returned to a more caring centre further away and while they don’t offer outside school hours care, my children (2 & 4) are once again happy and thriving.

My girls love this place so much. The educators are so lovely and my kids are very happy. Karen is very helpful. Any questions or queries and she sorts it out easy. Super flexible and helpful. Thanks Karen, and Miss Katie and Miss Angi and Miss Simi 🦋

I don't usually leave reviews, but Gaven Early Learning centre and all its staff need to be recognised and appreciated. My 5 year old son with severe allergies attends on 2 days, and the staff have been nothing short of amazing. Special mentions to Ms Anje, Ms Simi and Ms Karen, who go to great lengths to look after him and stay in close communication with me where necessary. The staff are always friendly, show genuine care and love for the children, and are always happy to help and be flexible with children's needs. Next year is big school for my son, and there's no doubt that there will be lots of tears leaving this wonderful and loving community. Thank you Gaven Early Learning.

We enrolled our daughter into Gaven ELC after moving interstate and the staff have been wonderful with helping her settle into the new centre. I've been very impressed with the patience, support and compassion the educators have shown her every day when she has a difficult time adjusting and it's a credit to them to see how happy she is when we drop her off now.
