I have been trying to come to Avenues Mcdowall for a tour for a few months now. Unfortunatly the process has been a bit of an issue. Unless you want to enrol in the next two months, I was informed by Maddi that would be " a waste of my time". I am undicided and i think it is a reasonable request to request a tour without commiting to a childcare in any way. First impressions matter. The conversation was unwelcoming and it really felt like i was wasting someone's time. I would hate for my child to feel like that under their care EDIT: Thank you for your response. What you have stated regarding the booking is incorrect. I phoned the centre daily for a week to arrange a tour. I finally received an email with a couple of options. I replied, but never received a confirmation. I decided to contact the centre via phone for a follow up. During this phone call Maddi informed me that unless i knew the start date and days a tour would be " a waste of my time". I informed her that i was unsure, but 2027 would be the latest and it was likely to be much sooner. It is highly dissapointing that you would state incorrect information to protect your reputation.Honesty is important especially when you have vulnerable people in your care. A lot of our children may not have the words to tell us when something happens. How can we trust their educators to tell us the truth? My guess would be this centre is very understaffed.

Response from the owner 12 Feb 2026

Hi Belinda, I'm sorry you feel this way, it is not our intention at all. As you were looking for care in 2027, our ever evolving centre changes over the year and we offer new enrolments for 2027 tours in September 2026. We had booked a time with you to visit the service but unfortunately you didn't show so I am more than happy for you to reach out again and I can show you through. Have a great day.

About Avenues Early Learning Centre - McDowall

Welcome to our beautiful Centre Avenues McDowall. We have been a part of the Avenues team for 5 years now, where we have been growing in leaps and bounds ever since. Our centre is located in a quiet street of McDowall, next to a creek and bushland. We are often referred to as a little hidden gem by our families, and visitors who provide extra curricular experiences or speciality shows to enhance our children’s knowledge. We pride ourselves on our homely environment that creates a cosy and nurturing feel for the children, families and educators.

Our educators are passionate and flexible in their programming to cater for the ever changing needs, interests and developmental needs of our children and families. Our educators have recently partaken in a course "Circles of Security" which has helped to strengthen our already 'exceeding rating' of our values, beliefs and personal philosophies. This provides the children in our care with the emotional support to develop a secure attachment by understanding that behaviour is a language and builds resilience, which enhances the important skills they need in life. We believe our children are little researchers in their own right, where we ensure our indoor and outdoor environment acts as a third educator to promote open, investigative, social and safe risk play.

Our Kindergarten children’s education follows the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Framework along with Avenues unique and extensive Literacy and Numeracy Program, that specialises in learning experiences through play to ensure the children’s development is school ready.

Children of today now have an important role to play in caring for the furture of our land. Our educators are continously embedding sustainable and recycling practices within the childrens every day routines. Instilling and educating them in this area will enhance their capabilities to grow into thoughtful human beings caring for our planet.. 

Please feel free to drop into our centre to see us in action. We would love to meet you.
