I came across this place while studying childcare and doing my placement. I met a legend who has worked in the same role for 40 years, and in the younger room, there was another teacher who has worked for 20 years. The way they worked, their attitude, and the way they cared for children were like a living book to me. Meeting them has been a great blessing in my life. The younger teachers were tirelessly caring for and teaching the children, and the Director was someone who truly fulfilled the duty of protecting and ensuring the happiness of the children. The relationships with the parents also seemed wonderful. The parents trusted the educators, and the teachers worked hard to return that trust with love and dedication. I truly applaud the teachers for keeping everything clean, hygienic, and so well managed. Even though I was only a student on placement, at the end I was deeply touched by the children’s thank-you cards and the parents’ gifts. I will never forget this experience. I pray that the children grow up healthy and strong, and I pray for the health and peace of all the teachers.

Thank you Rawida and the entire staff at Betty Elaine Kindergarten. Knowing our child is spending their day in such a warm, caring, and professional environment means the world to us. It’s so clear how much love and effort you and your staff put into every part of the day from the little routines to the fun activities and gentle guidance. Our child comes home happy, learning new things, and talking about their day with such excitement. That joy and growth is a direct reflection of the hard work and genuine care you and your staff provide. Thank you for treating our little one like family and for giving us such peace of mind. We feel so lucky to have found you. And we will be highly recommending your services to our family and friends. Thank you so very much.

Highly recommended as a hidden gem in Lidcombe. My son waits by the door every morning and asks me to hurry so he can get to Betty Elaine as soon as possible. He is well looked after and learning heaps. It's a small centre but has a community feel. Definitely recommend!

Thank you for all the love and care that you provide my daughter with. Thank you for making her feel so welcomed, safe and comfortable when i drop her off each morning. She has learnt so much this year. Your hard work does not go unnoticed. I would highly recommend to anyone :)

One of the best childcares in Sydney, it's more like a family club and there relationship with Lidcombe public school makes transition from childcare to Kindy a breeze, both my children have gone to this child care and my son is still there, this childcare is honestly what is keeping us to live in lidcombe. Massive shout out to Rawida & her team 👏🙌💙

5/5 stars! We've been absolutely blown away by the love, care, and dedication shown by the staff and educators at Betty Elaine. They truly go above and beyond to provide a nurturing environment that fosters growth, learning, and happiness. 🙂The educators are passionate, patient, and kind, making every child feel seen, heard, and valued. We feel incredibly lucky to have found such an amazing community for our daughter and son who is now moving onto year 1 but still brings up all the amazing memories he has had at Betty Elaine 🙂

The teachers are incredibly attentive and deeply involved in my child’s learning and development. Their compassion and genuine love for the kids create a warm and nurturing environment. My child has not only gained confidence and valuable knowledge but has also learned to be a kind and caring person, which we greatly appreciate. The environment is always clean and safe, giving us peace of mind. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to prepare children for kindergarten and beyond, and the staff is open to feedback, regularly checking in with families to ensure everything is going smoothly. We truly feel like they are part of our family and vice versa, which makes this experience even more special. A special thank you to Miss Rawida, Joanne, and Hong Mei for consistently going above and beyond. Their dedication and care have made a lasting impact on our child’s growth. We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Betty Elaine Kindergarten!

This is the best daycare we have been to. The educators and the staff are truly amazing and genuinely care for the children and are very attentive to each child. The daycare is very well run and maintained and very clean. The educators are truly amazing and my child loves attending the centre. I highly recommend the centre and will be coming back for our next child!

Recently I did a 6 weeks placement at Betty Elaine kindergarten and it was a wonderful experience. The centre gives such a homely vibe. The staff at Betty is really sweet,kind and passionate towards their work and they do what they do wholeheartedly. I would recommend anyone looking for a childcare for their child to choose Betty without even thinking twice because this kindergarten is like a second home for the little ones. Also, anyone looking for a placement should definitely reach out to them and they will definitely offer you a place.

I would highly recommend this centre to anyone looking for a quality education centre that truly cares about the growth and development of both its students and staff. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience during my placement. The staff were incredibly supportive and knowledgeable, providing me with invaluable guidance and feedback throughout my time there. Special thanks to Rawida and Ms. Joanne.
