We couldn’t be happier with this childcare centre. The staff are incredibly lovely, caring and genuinely invested in the children. From day one, they made the transition to a new daycare so easy for our boys, which meant so much to us as parents. They are accommodating, communicative and always welcoming. It’s clear they create a nurturing environment where the children feel safe, supported and excited to learn. We’ve seen our boys settle in beautifully and grow in confidence, and that’s a real credit to the team. We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful centre and highly recommend them to any families looking for a caring and supportive daycare.

When I first visited Pelicans, I was impressed by Kylee’s warmth, knowledge, and professionalism. After touring several early learning centres, it became clear that this was the place where I felt most confident and welcomed. High-quality educators were essential for me, and during my visits I observed the team at work — the way they speak to the children, guide them, play with them, and support their growth is simply beautiful. What I love most is their policies, flexible approach, the safety, and commitment to open and honest communication. Infact, communication with educators, director and leadership is top-notch, and any issue is addressed promptly. I also love that I can view the daily activities and more online about my child’s day. I truly feel we work together as a team — educators and parents — with the shared goal of giving each child the best possible experience. The environment is clean, thoughtfully arranged, and inviting, with rooms set up in age-appropriate activities. Facilities, outdoor and even the menu is well designed and child-focused. Thank you for the exceptional care you provide. Your dedication, passion, and hard work are amazing — you are all Stars!

We’ve had an excellent experience at Pelicans. All the educators and the leadership team are patient, caring, and genuinely invested in the children’s growth. The environment is clean, safe, and organized, with plenty of age-appropriate activities that keep the kids engaged and happy. There were times where our expectations differ to what is delivered by the centre. And there was a time of staff turnover thus there was a time where there were many changes. Not all changes are bad, they gave fresh outlook and ideas to the centre. The addition of new educators such as Ms Mubee together with passionate educators that stayed such as Ms Shanay, Ms Nettie, Ms Corryne and Ms Kozue kept the place thriving. I could name more educators and yet will miss a name, I am sure of that. The director and leadership team are quick to address any issues. There are upgrades in the centre that are due and plans were already in place. Communication with us is excellent—daily updates, photos, and quick responses to questions. Our child came as a baby has become more confident, social, and independent since attending (4 yrs++). Highly recommended if you would like a centre in the city.

The staff are amazing setting up different activities and play stations for kids to learn. The facilities are also clean and spacious for kids to play.

Here’s a polished review you can use: ⸻ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Pelicans Daycare in the City Centre 1 has been absolutely amazing for my family. Both my girls attended here, and they loved every part of their experience. The staff are warm, caring, and truly dedicated to the kids—they’ve made us feel supported from day one. I cannot rate this centre highly enough. The educators go above and beyond, creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where my girls felt happy and excited to come each day. We are so grateful for the wonderful care and attention they received. Highly recommend Pelicans Daycare to any parent looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring centre.

Amazing childcare center! The staff are so loving and patient with the children and I can see how much she’s learning every week. The environment is clean, safe, and full of fun activities.

My little boy has been going here since he was a baby and now just about to graduate kindy there. He loves going and especially loves having his morning chat with the management team.

This daycare has been such a breath of fresh air after visiting other centres. Kylee, the director, is welcoming, professional, and truly passionate about the children. I’ve never experienced such consistent updates and such a genuine home-like feeling when dropping off my child. The staff are so caring, supportive, and go above and beyond to make every child feel happy and safe. I feel so grateful to have found this centre and couldn’t recommend it more! My son comes home everyday talking about how much he adores his educators and how excited his is to return tomorrow!

Pelican in the City is a wonderful childcare centre. As a new mum, the transition from parental leave back to work wasn’t easy, and leaving my child during the day felt daunting. But I found the centre an absolute breeze to deal with. Kylie, the director, is never stressful or pressuring and always available, so when I decided to extend my parental leave and delay my daughter’s start date, she made it so easy for us. I feel my daughter is in great hands in the nursery with Miss Charlene and Miss Debora. I love the daily updates through the app! I couldn’t believe how creative they are with the activities they plan for the children. Honestly, I wouldn’t have thought of half the activities they come up with! It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my daughter is cared for, nurtured, and stimulated every day she goes. Thank you :)
