I cannot recommend Miss Jay and the team at Little Ducks highly enough - we trust them completely with our toddler (and soon also our baby who is joining as well). As far as I can tell the best indicator of a good culture is low staff turnover and we’ve had fabulous continuity of care for years now. The teachers are warm, caring and highly trained/educated, offering a highly personalised approach and gently encouraging the kids to become more of themselves in a supported environment. The team offers a supported, gradual transition right up to the kindy program with excellent and thoughtful policies, eg a primary carer moving up with each group of students that graduate to the next room. I’m continually impressed by them and look forward to being part of the Little Ducks community for years to come.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Little Ducks Bardon. Both my boys started in daycare at 8 month old. Ms Martha has been absolutely wonderful at supporting the drop off transition each morning in the nursery. And Ms Niki has also played a massive role supporting us to drop off our older son. We are so grateful to them and all the staff. Too many to list them all! We also found ourselves moving house when our eldest was almost 2 years old, but decided to stay local so we could continue at Little Ducks.

Great Child care Centre !

If you're considering this centre for your little one, I cannot recommend it highly enough! I'm so grateful we found Little Ducks and my son got to spend a special year in the Kindy room with Miss Gabby, Miss Wendy and the rest of the wonderful staff at Little Ducks. He has grown in confidence and is well and truly ready for BIG school, thanks to your guidance and care for him. We have experienced 4 centres over the years (with 3 boys), and Little Ducks has by far been our favourite. From the staff, to the space and everything in between - it's been a wonderful centre and my son has LOVED his time there, ALWAYS excited to go to Kindy. We are SO SAD to be leaving Little Ducks for big school, and will miss you all so much. Thank you for the amazing work you do!

Amazing daycare centre! My kid is attending full time and loves going to kindy at Little Ducks. The educators centre managers are very friendly, caring and know all the kids. The staff turnover is also very low, which is a huge plus!

My little one has been at Little Ducks since he turned one, and we couldn’t be happier. It’s a smaller centre, which is one of the many reasons we chose it. The teachers are always on the floor with the kids — singing, reading, and creating the most wonderful activities for them. His teachers - Tassie, Martha, Chrish, Tatiane, Kaia - and everyone else we’ve met, are all so lovely, and I feel so grateful that my boy is surrounded by people who genuinely care for him. He started walking this month, and his teachers were just as excited as we were! Jay and Michelle (management) lead by example and are always present in the classrooms, making sure the children are happy and engaged. I also really appreciate how willing they are to work with parents on each child’s specific needs, whether it’s eating, sleeping, or settling in. We’re new to Brisbane and have no family in Australia, but Little Ducks has truly made the transition so much easier for us. I can’t thank them enough for the amazing work they do every day. Highly recommend!

We have used Little Ducks Bardon for our daughter for nearly five years, she has had a wonderful experience growing up and learning with educators and carers in all of the rooms, from nursery, toddlers through to kindy. A service you can be confident in, it has been a delight knowing the supportive and genuinely kind team at Little Ducks Bardon.

Couldn’t recommend Little Ducks at Bardon more highly. Jeandra and Michelle made what initially felt like an overwhelming process (being new to daycare with our firstborn and returning to work) so easy, and were such a reassuring support to me. My daughter started at Little Ducks at 11 months; her educators Miss Martha, Miss Chrish, Mr Tassie and Miss Tatiane are all absolutely wonderful and she has built strong bonds with them all which is testament to their skill and dedication as early childhood educators. The rooms are small, the educators are a strong team, and there is such a solid focus on children’s development, a safe and positive environment and community. The management team’s communication, and responsiveness to feedback is also terrific. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to send our daughter to Little Ducks.

This is the best childcare centre that you'll find. My little one started here as a baby but last year we moved away and tried another centre that was closer to us, but for many reasons it just wasn't right. I then toured about 15 centres all over the area and honestly, none of them came close to Little Ducks, so I re-enrolled my little one and we now travel an extra 30mins every day so they can go there. The staff here feel like family, they take care of absolutely everything and treat the kids almost like they are their own. Everyone knows everyone and these kids are LOVED. My little one is absolutely thriving since being back at little ducks, it's truly like a second home and they often dont want to leave! The staff are all incredible, the food is great and the materials and activities are just much better quality that what I've seen in other centres. Special shoutout for Ivy for being a particularly amazing educator (and my child's favourite person in the world!) and also Jay who has gone out of her way to support our family. There are many others though as well... Tammie, Fiona, Tyler, Poppy and Martha are all people that my child looks for in the playground - I'm lucky if I get a wave goodbye as they run off in the morning! We're truly blessed to have found this centre and my child will be staying at little ducks all the way through to kindy, regardless of how far away we live!

Absolutely wonderful kindergarten and daycare. The teachers are all so warm and genuinely care about the kids. Our kids love going to Little Ducks. The rooms are lovely and thoughtfully set out. The staff always seem interested, keen and engaged. Communication is great and, unlike at a former daycare, our kids never come home with bruises or scratches. They come home happy and not overstimulated. We have been very happy with the care here.
