I want to say Ben, Kel and Andrea & the whole team, are the best you can get as a parent, they go above and beyond. It’s a shame that Andrea isn’t around anymore because she was beyond amazing (non-replaceable). The rest of the original team are amazing. Highly recommend. Read more

My daughter was once in your care. When she was 3yr old, one day I noticed a male educator had joined your centre, and I asked whether it would be possible for only female educators to change my daughter's nappies.

My daughter (now 9) has confirmed she would not agree with a male educator providing personal care. When children are too young to speak for themselves, it’s up to us—parents and educators together—to protect their dignity. I hope my concerns can be taken into consideration. Read more
