The RSK Carlton is what you want for your child’s early education. They have wonderful teachers who care about your child. The team is very stable. Both my kids go to this centre. My older son has left for school but occasionally he would love to drop in to visit some of his favourite teachers. My daughter is not quite a talker but educator would care and read her subtle gestures to understand her needs. She has made some good friends there and she cannot stop talking about them at home.
Thank you so much for your beautiful review. We are truly grateful for your trust in RSK Carlton and for allowing us to be part of both of your children’s early learning journeys. It means so much to hear how strong the bonds are between your family and our educators, especially knowing your son still loves to visit his favourite teachers after moving on to school. That speaks volumes about the genuine care and relationships our team builds. We’re also so pleased to hear how supported your daughter feels. Our educators take great pride in truly knowing each child, including understanding their cues and communication styles, and it’s wonderful to hear she has formed friendships and happily shares her experiences at home. Thank you again for your kind words and ongoing support. We feel very lucky to have your family as part of the RSK Carlton community

My two kids, 4yrs and 1yrs recently moved to RSK from another centre and the Director and educators have been nothing short of amazing. They are all kind, patient and caring. My children have a few allergies and medical requirements and everyone has gone above and beyond to ensure my children are safe and always included. As my son’s diet is constricted due to his allergies which can make meals challenging but their onsite chef has been great in communicating with me, often having lots of suggestions and ideas for his meals. My children love going here and we couldn’t be happier!!

Over the past three weeks, our Google platform has received dozens of nearly identical one-star reviews from newly created accounts using names that do not correspond with any families connected to our community. Unfortunately, this review follows the same pattern and you have reviewed another service where you are also not on our records. This type of behaviour constitutes online harassment and targeted bullying and is a breach of Google’s review policies, which prohibit fake reviews, coordinated review manipulation, and content posted with malicious intent. In our previous responses, we have openly invited the reviewer to contact us directly so we can investigate the matter and provide a genuine response or resolution if the concern is legitimate. As no contact or clarification has been provided, we are unable to understand why this review has been posted. Under Australian law, the publication of false statements that damage a business’s reputation may also fall within the defamation provisions of the Defamation Act 2005. Coordinated online harassment and misuse of digital platforms can also intersect with offences under the Criminal Code Act 1995 relating to the use of telecommunications services to menace, harass, or cause harm. Given that we have made numerous attempts to engage constructively through appropriate channels without response, we have now begun pursuing the formal avenues available to us through Google’s anonymous poster identification tools and other relevant legal authorities. In the meantime, we strongly encourage the individual responsible to remove any untrue or misleading reviews and to refrain from further online harassment. Rise & Shine remains proud of the community we serve and will continue to prioritise the safety, wellbeing, and transparent communication with the families who are genuinely part of it.

Best daycare in the area- attentive educators and great curriculum and excursions for the kids. Highly recommend
Hi Chelsea, thank you for taking the time to review Rise & Shine and the care and curriculum delivered at our service, we are so happy to hear how happy you are with team and centre. The Rise & Shine crew.

I could not be happier with our experience at Rise and Shine Carlton. This was my son's first time in daycare, and I was initially worried about how he’d settle in. But the staff went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable from day one. They took such a caring, personalized approach, patiently helping him adjust to the new environment. Now, he absolutely loves going every morning and always happy. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he's safe and happy there—I have no hesitation or concerns when dropping him off. I highly recommend Rise and Shine Carlton to any parent looking for a nurturing, welcoming place for their little one.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We really appreciate your support and sharing your experience here, we are so glad to hear how happy you are and we thank you for choosing us to care for your child. Wishing you all the best in 2025, the Rise & Shine team
Diana
Excellent centre with an exceptional director and educators. My son is currently in the toddler room, but has been going since he was in the nursery room and is about to transition to the preschool room. There's consistency in care and my son absolutely loves it. Drop offs are a breeze !
Hi Diana, thank you for your beautiful review, we are so glad to hear how happy you have been in nursery and toddler rooms, we thank you for choosing us and are confident your preschool journey will be filled with wonderful lifelong memories. Thank you for choosing us. The Rise & Shine team
Peter Au
We are so fortunate and grateful to be able to send both our girls to Rise and Shine Kindergarten Carlton. The educators are all amazing and caring. They treat our daughters like their own and our daughters' development has been tremendous under their care. We would recommend RSK Carlton to all parents in search of a daycare centre in the area.
Dear Peter, thank you for taking the time to write such a beautiful review about our centre. We are so glad to hear how amazing and caring our educators are, we are so lucky to have them. Thank you for supporting us and we look forward to some fun times ahead. the Rise & Shine team

What is a Top Rated Centre? A top rated centre must have 5 star average reviews rating, as well as 'Exceeding' or 'Excellent' NQS rating. The National Quality Standards are a set of national benchmarks for early childhood education and care services. It includes seven quality areas like "Children's health and safety" and "Educational program and practice".
Criteria:
The National Quality Standard (NQS) is part of the National Quality Framework (NQF), introduced to enhance the quality of early childhood education and care services in Australia. Developed by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA), the NQS provides a benchmark for childcare services, from long day care and family day care to preschools, kindergartens, and outside school hours care. Under the NQS, childcare services are assessed and rated for the quality of education and care they provide. These ratings give parents a clear understanding of how well a service meets national standards, helping them make the best choice for their child’s needs.
Our average ratings are pulled from verified reviews from Google Reviews and direct parent reviews posted on the Care For Kids website.
Verified Centres are vetted by Care for Kids. As part of this process, Verified Centres undergo a financial assessment to ensure their reliability and credibility. We maintain an ongoing relationship with Verified Centres and provide them with support so they can offer you fresh and accurate information.
