A very well run Hornsby Heights childcare centre. Genuinely excellent.

We’ve had such a great experience with Orange Blossom! Our daughter absolutely loves going there each day — the educators are caring, attentive, and truly go the extra mile to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. It’s been amazing to see how much she’s grown in confidence, social skills, and learning since starting. The daily updates, creative activities, and thoughtful approach to each child’s needs really set Orange Blossom apart. It’s clear that the team is passionate about what they do, and it gives us peace of mind knowing our daughter is in such good hands. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a warm and professional childcare.

Exceptional Early Learning Centre Orange Blossom is an outstanding early learning centre where every detail is carefully considered, creating a nurturing and enriching environment for children. From the moment you walk in, it’s evident that the team puts immense thought and care into everything they do. In the morning, children greet the centre director, Julian, with great joy and excitement —a true testament to the warmth and dedication he brings to ensuring every child feels valued and happy. The centre's commitment to inclusivity is also remarkable, with all external provider activities included in the fees so that no child ever misses out. From day one, my child felt right at home, even asking for seconds at lunch, which speaks volumes about the quality of their in-house chef’s meals. The educators at Orange Blossom are exceptional. Judy is a warm, kind-hearted presence, a true safe space for the children. She gently guides them in playing kindly, self-advocating, and practicing good hygiene. The calm and nurturing atmosphere of the centre is a reflection of the educators’ incredible guidance. Co-director Kate follows the Reggio Emilia philosophy, ensuring that natural and realistic materials are used as much as possible. Children’s interests are seamlessly extended into meaningful learning opportunities, making their education truly child-led. As a Montessori-loving mum, I also appreciate how much independence and life skills are fostered here. I also want to highlight Sonya, who is incredibly lovely with the children, and Wanling, who is attentive and deeply caring. Both of them play an integral role in making the environment warm and nurturing for every child. Preschool educator Maki goes above and beyond in sharing detailed, delightful observations of my child’s progress. Her notes gives incredible insight into my child’s experiences, making me feel truly connected to his learning journey. The level of care extends even to small details, like prewashing clothes with paint stains before sending them home—a thoughtful touch I’ve never seen elsewhere. The atmosphere is made even more special by the calming music they play—it’s almost identical to the soundtrack we have at home, filled with Disney and Studio Ghibli melodies, creating a familiar and soothing environment. I also appreciate that all staff members wear name tags, which adds a professional touch and gives me comfort knowing exactly who is caring for my child. Orange Blossom welcomes children from two years old, and its close proximity to Hornsby North Public School means many friendships continue into primary school. I couldn’t recommend this centre more highly for any parent seeking a truly exceptional early learning experience.

I am incredibly grateful for the personalized care my child received at Orange Blossom Early Learning Childcare. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure each child's unique needs are met, creating a nurturing and supportive environment. My child has thrived under their attentive and compassionate care, and I couldn't be happier with the progress I've seen. The team at Orange Blossom truly understands the importance of individualized attention, and it shows in the way they interact with each child. I highly recommend Orange Blossom Early Learning Childcare to any parent looking for a place where their child will be genuinely cared for and supported.

Highly recommended to all kids around Hornsby. All the educators are dedicated, knowledgeable, friendly and responsible. The center also is very tidy and full of rich resources. They always set up various activities every day. Also, there are some extracurricular activities like yoga and drama class. Personally this center runs better than some franchised ones. All in all, my kids had an amazing and impressive learning and playing experience here.

We love Orange Blossom, the kids are loved, listened to and have so much fun. The communication is fantastic, and the cleanliness is second to none. My child has barely been sick and has been going for over a year. It’s family run, with so many extras including yoga and drama. My child’s interests are supported and she is always given opportunity to extend herself. We are always greeted by name any know all the educators, it really is a special little centre.

Lovely place and people. Small but clean. Many activities in the centre. Close to KU preshool and Hornsby North public school. Most classmates in childcare and preschool went to Kindy together!

I have had two children go through Orange Blossom from age 2, the second child finishing this month before she starts school. It’s a wonderful day care, always clean, a great varied menu and so many fun and educational activities for the kids to do. There are often guest visiting with animals or performing magic tricks and excursions to Rofe Park. The staff are friendly and really care about the kids. Julian the Manager is kind and caring and calmly keeps everything in control. It will be sad closing this chapter of of lives but also great to leave a place for the next Orange Blossom enrollment. 😊

my child enjoyed her stay here over the past 3 years. she made a lot of friends and absolutely loved everyday she was here. They have a chef who cooks fresh food everyday!

We couldn’t have chosen a better daycare for our daughter. Orange Blossom is truly outstanding. The staff are incredibly kind and caring, and the daycare is always spotless and well-maintained. Kate and Julian are doing an exceptional job, and I highly recommend this center.
