We feel incredibly fortunate to have found the centre for our son. Since he began attending at just one year old, he has blossomed into a confident little boy over the past 3.5 years. Gilda is not just an incredible leader; she’s a selfless educator and a fearless advocate for our children, inspiring us every day with her dedication. She has been very inspiring to me as a parent, guiding me through many anxious episodes and enlightening me with her passion, her steadfast values, and her pedagogical approach. Gilda is deeply passionate about early childhood education and genuinely wants the best for every child, which is evident in every aspect of the centre. The warmth and passion of all the teachers, who have consistently shown how much they truly care, also make this place feel like family. Joyce is an incredibly effective and trustworthy teacher; she has calmed our son during multiple anxious transition periods and has successfully guided him through new experiences. Yuki, Yumi, Tada, and Masumi are all disciplined yet nurturing, providing both a loving environment and a structured framework for the children. Taya is especially gentle and treats the kids as if they were her own. Saeko is experienced and patient. Angel and Emma bring so much energy and kindness. I’ve noticed that all the teachers love engaging in conversations with the kids, and the children genuinely enjoy talking to them. This interaction significantly enhances their language development, exploration, and curiosity. Additionally, the teachers are genuinely invested in expanding their knowledge of early childhood learning, continually striving to improve their skills. The centre’s low turnover rate is exceptional; most of the teachers have been here for many years, which sets it apart from other centres. This stability allows us to know and trust the dedicated staff who nurture and support our child’s development. Communication with parents is very effective, which we truly appreciate. We also love the curriculum they offer; it is engaging and stimulating, fostering both learning and fun in our child's daily experience. The centre exudes a wonderful vibe; it fosters generosity and kindness among the kids, and the parents share a close-knit community that adds to the overall atmosphere. We are beyond grateful to have such dedicated teachers as the first educators in our son's life. Each day, he comes home excited to share what he's learned and the fun activities he’s enjoyed. Gilda and her team have played a significant role in our happiness throughout our new life journey in Australia. Knowing that our son is in such capable hands fills us with peace of mind. We wholeheartedly recommend this centre; it has truly been a blessing for our family!

Gilda and her team are incredibly professional and passionate. They are very kind and provided useful comments to me. Chatswood ELC has lots of fun activities for children everyday and dance and sports classes. My daughter really enjoyed her time at ELC. It's a great experience for her.

From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt welcomed and reassured that our child would be in safe, caring hands. Gilda and her team of educators are warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth and wellbeing. They take the time to get to know the children’s individual personalities, needs, and interests, which makes a huge difference in building confidence and a love for learning. Communication with parents is excellent. We receive regular updates. Highly recommended for any parent seeking a nurturing, professional, an enriching early childhood experience.

Wonderful preschool! Caring staff and so much fun learning, A truly nurturing environment. Our children are flourishing thank you to all the educators who played a crucial role in masons & Preston’s early childhood in Sydney 👍✨

A happy, energetic and safe place. Lovely Atmosphere. Kids want to be at the ELC everyday!!!

Over the past three months, my son has had a truly wonderful experience, thanks to Gilda, Masumi, Yumi, and Yuki and other teachers and friends. Since he doesn’t speak English, he was quite nervous at first. However, from the second day onwards, he was so excited to go to school and made many friends. This experience has been invaluable for him. Thank you so much!

I highly recommend Chatswood Early Education Centre for your little one(s). Gilda is a big mother of all the children and their PARENTS. A fantastic childcare with great facilities and activities, safe and personal attention to each child. Really appreciated great communication with educators to chat about how each day was. Our son started Kindy this month, but we miss going there already! Thank you, Gilda and her team. Ladies are absolutely beautiful people inside-out!

My daughter has just finished at Chatswood ELC (as she's starting Kindy next year) and had an amazing time. She has really enjoyed the activities at the center especially the arts and crafts and also the regular visits by sports coaches and dancing teachers. Special thanks to Yumi and the educators for providing a nurturing and inclusive environment. My daughter is always singing and happy when she comes home from child care . Also special thanks to Gilda the director for running a great child care for both the educators and the children.

Chatswood early learning Centre (magnolia cottage) is the perfect place for a child to spread their wings. The management and staff are wonderful. They’re all very experienced and they have a very long-standing team. It’s a very beautiful outdoor space and the outdoor space is definitely something that sold it for me. Very cute great facilities and overall very caring staff. The management is really authentic Gelda. The owner really has a passion for children instead of a mind for business. My son received the best care and learnt a huge range of things down from language skill all the way to artistic painting and reading and everything in between would thoroughly recommend for any other members of the community.
