My daughter has just finished up 4 and half years at Explore and Develop Terrigal and I found myself so overwhelmed with emotion I couldn’t properly say goodbye to the amazing educators. I can’t speak highly enough of this centre, their level of care and dedication to the kids is incredible and every single one of the staff is nothing short of amazing, even those who my daughter never had the chance to have as room educators. I have never had to worry about how my child will be cared for and the communication from the centre has been incredibly consistent and thorough in all areas, from multiple photos through out the day to regular emails around happenings at the centre. My child has formed strong friendships and putting her in the loving and supportive care of the team and E&D Terrigal has been the best decision ever. We are incredibly sad to no longer be attending but will forever look back at our time with fondness and speak praises of Explore and Develop Terrigal to anyone looking for an exceptional level of care for their children.

Both our kids went here and it was a big part of our lives for over 5 years. The educators are caring, dedicated and really go the extra mile for the kids. They are seriously amazing people. I cannot speak highly enough of them. Communication is excellent as they keep you posted on your childs day via an app and always answer any queries promptly. My kids both made many great friends and flourished in the environment created at E&D. Its astounding how much they learned there. Best of all, were the excursions. Also both my kids had a sleepover night at the Centre, which was the most exciting thing ever for them. I am not sure there are many other centres that have such excellent excursions and activities. The centre itself is great - it has a fantastic outside play area and the rooms are big and spacious with many changing activities and themes. The meals and snacks provided are also exceptional and nutritious. I highly recommend this centre

We have loved our time at Explore and Develop Terrigal over the past 8 years. The staff are friendly, kind and professional, and provide genuine care and attention to all of the children. They also go above and beyond to create fantastic learning opportunities to encourage curiosity and creativity. This is an amazing centre that we highly recommend!

Explore and Develop Terrigal is the unicorn of childcare centres. The educators are phenomenal; caring, engaged, and they take care of the children just like they were their own. The facility is beautiful with lots of outdoor space and engaging indoor learning environments. The staff are attentive and flexible, especially with little ones who might need an extra cuddle at drop off or who will eat nothing but a Vegemite sandwich everyday for four years straight 😂 Explore and Develop Terrigal’s intentional curriculum and play based learning has helped develop a well rounded class of confident, resilient young people ready to take on Big School, with nothing but fond memories of their time at E&D! Highly recommend it!

Both my children have attended this centre. We have been coming to the centre for the past 7 years. The staff are professional, lovely and very attentive to the kids. The centre itself is a very calm, clean and fun environment for the kids with lots of hands on experiences to be had. The excursions are very well planned and organised and the environment is an important factor when they design their lessons for the day, reusing and recycling being number 1. I can’t recommend Explore and Develop Terrigal any higher! They really are the best :)

I would highly recommend Explore and Develop Terrigal. Each and every staff member is friendly, caring and professional. We are always greeted with a smile and acknowledgment when arriving or leaving. Items always come home and daily updates are something I love and look forward to seeing. Any concerns or queries are acted upon quickly. I was highly recommended Explore and Develop Terrigal and have been extremely happy with my choice.

Incredible childcare centre! Great facilities and space for the children (across both indoor and outdoor environments), exceptional educators who really care about the kids' learning and development (from a social and emotional perspective as well as academically), top notch education program. I cannot speak more highly of the centre and what the teams offers. Thank you E&D Terrigal !!

Caring, nurturing, loving, kind and a lot of fun! From the Management Team to the Educators, Explore & Develop, Terrigal staff are all passionate about children's learning and development. They take a genuine interest in creating an inclusive, caring and safe environment for our children to play and learn.. We couldn’t recommend Explore & Develop enough!!
