Sending my 2 yr old to daycare for the first time was a big step for us, and I was quite nervous at the start. However, it has been such a wonderful experience from day one. From the very beginning, he has walked straight into the centre loving it, which instantly put my mind at ease. The play areas are absolutely incredible and so thoughtfully set up, giving the children so many opportunities to explore, learn and have fun. The staff have all been so amazing kind, patient and genuinely caring and they made the transition incredibly easy, not just for my toddler but for me as well. Seeing how happy and settled he is has been so reassuring. We couldn’t recommend Little Grasshoppers highly enough.

We were so excited to start at Little Grasshoppers when it opened and we have been over the moon with the centre since that very first week. The staff are an absolute highlight for us, every touch point has exceeded expectations. They are so lovely to our whole family when we walk in each morning and always welcome us with a smile. They take the time to get to know each child and have a few great tricks to help with a difficult drop off. We love that they move the children through the different (beautiful!) spaces during the day, whether it be to the dining room for lunch, or a different room/yard to play. We feel so lucky that after experiencing many different daycares and kinders through the years and various suburbs, that we’ve landed this one for our third child. Thanks guys!

Our son attends Little Grasshoppers Mount Eliza, and we absolutely love it. The facilities are beautiful and fun, and the educators are amazing. Our son normally takes some time to warm up to new people, but he now puts his arms out for the educators at drop off, which is a testimony to how much he loves going there. We are incredibly happy with Little Grasshoppers Mount Eliza and couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Our 4-year-old recently started at Little Grasshoppers Mount Eliza after moving kinders and we couldn’t be happier. From day one she has been so warmly welcomed by the staff. She often comes home talking about going on tours and absolutely loves helping out wherever she can. We’ve seen her confidence and independence blossom in such a short time and it’s been incredibly reassuring as parents. The team has also made both my husband and me feel genuinely welcome and we truly feel confident knowing our daughter is in the best hands. We’re so grateful to the wonderful staff at Little Grasshoppers.

Little Grasshoppers has been an extraordinary part of our family’s journey. Three of my grandchildren attended Grasshoppers and each one of them blossomed in ways that still make me smile today. From the very first day, the educators welcomed us with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. They don’t just supervise children — they know them. They celebrate their quirks, nurture their strengths, and guide them with patience, kindness, and joy. What I love most is how Grasshoppers creates a world where learning and play come together so naturally. My grandchildren came home excited, confident, and full of stories about their day. Whether it was imaginative play, early literacy, outdoor exploration, or simple moments of connection, Grasshoppers made every day feel meaningful. The communication with families is exceptional, too. I always felt included, respected, and reassured that the children were safe, supported, and truly thriving. Little Grasshoppers isn’t just a child-minding centre — it’s a place that shapes little hearts and minds with love. It gave my grandchildren the foundation every child deserves: confidence, curiosity, and a sense of belonging. For any family searching for a centre where children are cherished, encouraged, and inspired… Little Grasshoppers is the gold standard. Thank you to the entire Grasshoppers team for being part of our family’s story. You don’t just care for children — you help them grow. 🌱💚 Fay Williams. NaNa of Henry, Leo and Brock

Little Grasshoppers was an incredible part of my children’s lives for many years. We were welcomed into the LGH community with open arms and the entire team felt like an extension of our family from day one. I am forever grateful for the level of care and friendship they provided and the amazing daily activities they would have prepared for my boys. Thank you to everyone at LGH for being such a special part of our lives while Henry and Leo were in your care ✨

We have recently moved to LGH Mount Eliza from another center in the area. The center is calm, beautiful and full of warm welcoming educators. My son has settled in quickly and we already feel at home. Lauren, the center director is amazing. She values inclusion, connection and quality. Her relationships with the children and families are wonderful.

Little Grasshoppers Mt Eliza is truly special. A place where little hearts are nurtured, little minds open wide, and little moments turn into big memories. Each day, it is a blessing to be greeted by those sweet faces and to be surrounded by the pure magic of childhood. To hear their gentle words, to witness those wobbling first steps turn into joyful runs, to see imagination burst to life, and to watch friendships blossom. These are the moments that make this place feel like home. Within a light filled, thoughtfully designed centre, wrapped in nature and warmth, children are free to explore, grow and simply be themselves. It is an honour to see this new Early Learning Centre come alive with laughter, wonder and love, and to stand beside a team who pour their whole heart into what they do. Life is just more beautiful with children in it and I am grateful every day to be part of their journey.

Our little one has just started at Little Grasshoppers Mt Eliza and we couldn’t be happier! The staff are fantastic and she always comes home with a smile on her face telling us all about her day! The new facilities are amazing too! Would recommend!

We have always had a wonderful experience with Little Grasshoppers. Our three year old and his big brother both attended the Main Street Mornington centre, and when the new Mount Eliza centre opened, we made the move simply to be closer to home. It has been a smooth and positive transition, and Archer is absolutely thriving in his new environment. His curiosity, confidence and independence are being nurtured every single day, and it is clear how much he is learning and growing. The team have been incredibly supportive and kind, creating a warm and welcoming community from the moment they opened. You can genuinely feel how much they care about the children, and it shines through in everything they do. We are so happy with Little Grasshoppers Mount Eliza and are grateful for the beautiful environment they have created for our son. Highly recommend.
