Elouera childcare centre, I don’t even know where to start! They’re a unicorn, one in a million and as an ex educator nothing I have experienced in a childcare setting in both the Uk and Sydney. It has taken me 8 months to find this little gem and I’m so so happy with the love, care, support and incredible food and experiences that are included in the price. At Elouera an art teacher (who is very talented at guiding and teaching techniques to young people) comes in once a week and does amazing work (my pre school child is obsessed). The pieces we receive are quite something and my daughter has now started using these techniques at home making more wonderful creations. They also offer sports, dance and have a very talented piano and opera singer come in to teach piano to the pre school children. My daughter has shown great interest in music ever since. The food!!! Amazing!! All homemade on site by a very talented chef, my girl eats his food and actually tells me about it when she comes home! This little girl was an NG tube baby for the first year off her life and spent many appointments getting her to eat. I can’t get her to eat half the things he creates but I’m so thankful she will eat it all at school. We were invited to an afternoon tea and I ate far too much, just delicious. Most importantly the educators and directors are wonderful. They’re all there for the love of the children and not “just a job”. My little girl sings all of their praises and has settled in (been out of daycare for 1.5 years) straight away with no tears at all!! The love and support both my daughter and us as parents get is truly special and they all go above and beyond to ensure we’re feeling loved, safe and happy. The teachings/lessons that are taught in the pre school room are quite something! I as an ex educator searched high and low for this and just can’t believe my luck on stumbling across them once they moved from Bexley to Eastgardens. I honestly have never wrote a daycare a review before but just had to take the time to do this. Parents need to know about this centre, you will not regret choosing Elouera!! Thank you ladies for EVERYTHING you have done for us so far and continue to do for us, we are so so grateful for each and everyone of you.

Almost certainly the best day care and pre-school in Sydney. We’ve had our D here since opening and have watched with amazement how she has grown in confidence and capability across a range of skills including speaking, socialising and imagination. You can *feel* the calm, competence and compassion of the staff as soon as you enter the building. This atmosphere carries over to the children and we have full confidence that our D is getting everything she needs here. The food is amazing. Unlike many other places, it’s freshly prepared on-site and our D has never had complaints (unlike at home 😂!) There are multiple themes throughout the week, from sports, music, art and more. Elouera bring in experts from outside to run activities with the kids, giving them plenty of variety and experience. We are just thrilled we’ve found this place. Plenty of spots left as they have only been open a couple of months!!

I cannot recommend this center highly enough! We transitioned our 3-year-old and 1-year-old here recently, and the difference has been night and day. At her previous childcare, my 3-year-old would have major tantrums during every drop-off. Since moving here, she stopped crying after just one week! Now, she comes home every single day telling me how happy she is. It is clear that the team puts a lot of effort into the learning programs here, and my daughter is absolutely thriving because of it. She has formed such a wonderful bond with the educators that she even asks about them on the weekends. The care provided is truly above and beyond—it honestly feels more like dropping my girls off with family than at a school. If you are looking for a nurturing, warm, and engaging environment for your little ones, this is it!

Our little one's first day and recent weeks settling in at Elouera have gone well! On our first day when we arrived the Room Leader and Team of Educators were ready for us. They welcomed us warmly by introducing themselves and showing us through the space including where to put our daughter's bag, her drink bottle - the little things that make it easier for a parent! They had read our daughter's information obtained through the enrollment process. They knew our names, our goals, aspirations, routine and that she has a comforter! Being ready for our daughter and the effort taken to settle her into the morning with a cuddle and a place to sit amongst new friends make us feel more comfortable. A great start to our enrolment with Elouera. A wonderful environment, lovely educators, clear communication and great food! Thank you for having our little one!

We recently visited this incredible new-build daycare and were blown away. Everything is so thoughtfully designed — from the beautiful indoor spaces to the amazing outdoor play areas, sensory play opportunities, and the abundance of fresh air and sunshine the children get throughout the day. One thing that really stood out was the fresh, healthy meals cooked on-site, inspired by the owner’s Greek heritage — it’s so reassuring knowing the children are being nourished with wholesome, home-style food. Kylie is an absolute dream and such a thoughtful, dedicated operator who clearly pours her heart into creating a nurturing environment. The whole team are genuinely lovely people, and the centre feels warm, welcoming, and full of care. My daughter Rosetta didn’t want to leave after our first visit, which says everything — she’s usually the one screaming to go home! If you’re looking for a daycare that truly prioritises health, play, nature, and community, this place is something special. I couldn’t recommend it more.

Would absolutely recommend Elouera. We had a great experience at their previous Hilltops centre. Pat, Sophie, Kylie, Bill and the team were fantastic and took great care of our son over the last two and a half years. A welcoming environment, providing a great learning experience and we always kept us up to date on his growth and development. A real community, he (and we) have made great friends – appreciate all you have done and wishing you the best with the new Elouera centre.

The carers at Elouera do an exceptional job. Both my children enjoyed the play, activities, learning experiences, food provided and the friendships they made during their time with them.The staff were always patient and kind, respectful and showed genuine care for the children and their interests. Both my children knew very little english when they first started and yet both started kindergarten with an excellent foundation in literacy from all the quality literature and circle time they engaged in at preschool. Saying bye to these amazing people when it was time for my boys to graduate was like saying goodbye to family. Elouera is an outstanding child care centre and your children will thrive there.

Both of my son's attended at their previous location and the support, love and bonds they created with their educators was wonderful. My eldest continues to ask if he can go back! Thank you for making a daunting experience and decision about where to send my kids an easy one.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Elouera Children’s Centre. Thank you to Pat, Kylie, Sophie, Bill and the wonderful team for taking such amazing care of our two children (aged 4 and 1). The centre always felt safe, caring and welcoming, and truly like a community. Our kids were loved like their own, encouraged to explore and grow, and supported with thoughtful guidance. The home-cooked meals and engaging activities went well above and beyond what we expected. We’re so grateful for the beautiful memories and can’t recommend Elouera highly enough.

Our son Nate spent two wonderful years at Hilltop Kids, now operated by the team at Elouera. He truly thrived in this family-centric, art-led learning environment, forming beautiful bonds with his educators—especially Sita. Knowing how much he loved being there, and how genuinely cared for he was, made drop-off each day so much easier. Pat, Sophie and Kylie have created such a nurturing and special environment; we were genuinely sad to say goodbye.
