I really like this daycare, especially the attention and care they provide to the children. The educators are very caring, supportive, and genuinely look after the kids' well-being. I am very satisfied with the care my toddler receives here.

A special mention to Nancy, the Manager, who is always approachable, understands parents' concerns, and greets everyone warmly. She creates a welcoming and supportive environment for both children and parents. I highly recommend this daycare to other families.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at headstart croydon! The educators are incredibly caring, friendly, professional, and dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and happy environment for the children.

It’s wonderful to see how much love, patience, and attention they give to every child. The centre is always clean, welcoming, and well-organised, with lots of fun and educational activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence.

The communication with parents is excellent, and it gives us great peace of mind knowing our child is in such caring and capable hands.

A huge thank you to the entire team for your hard work, kindness, and dedication. We truly appreciate everything you do and would highly recommend this headstart croydon to any family looking for a loving and supportive environment for their little ones! ❤️

Such a lovely childcare centre with a team that clearly puts a lot of care and effort into creating a welcoming environment for children and families. It’s wonderful to see people who are passionate about supporting children’s learning, development and wellbeing, couldn’t recommend this centre anymore!! ❤️

Couldn’t be happier with Headstart Clyde North! The staff are fantastic, especially the educators in the Kinder room. They’re caring, patient, friendly and genuinely go above and beyond for the kids. It’s great knowing my daughter is in a safe, happy environment where she’s supported, learning and having fun every day. A big thank you to the Kinder team for all the hard work you do. It definitely doesn’t go unnoticed! Highly recommend Headstart Clyde North to any family looking for a great childcare centre. 👏

Care for your baby/toddler? You can’t go wrong.
Manbir has had both my kids at a young age, she is nurturing and a well respected educator who does an amazing job. Manbir and Amarlee are a great team and it is so lovely to see the care and kindness they give to the children

Hands-down, the best Early Learning Centre in Geelong. Our kids loved going to daycare here. Abbey and Kristy are amazing Centre heads. Very prompt in communication and will accommodate additional casual daycare as much as possible. We felt so comfortable sending our children here. Their growth and development improved so much after doing the centre. The educators truly care for the children. Special mention to Julie, Julia, Jessica, Saira, Manisha, Khushbu and Mark. The centre is always clean and hygenic. Parents can always walk in and check on the the children any time of the day. Food is fresh and nutritious.

Overall, the best childcare centre if you are looking for a place in Geelong West!

Both my daughter and son have been attending this centre for years, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. The whole environment is great, but a special mention must go to the kinder teacher. She has been at the centre for a long time and brings a wealth of experience. She is amazingly caring, attentive, and deeply professional. Our kids always loved attending kinder and learned so much throughout the program. We highly recommend the kinder room to anyone looking for quality early learning.
