My son attended this childcare centre a while ago and because it was his first I had no point of reference of what was normal and what was not. I had since moved him to a different childcare centre and the difference was night and day. I’m sorry, I’m unsure of how the centre is run now but I found it concerning that the parents are not allowed to take their child into their area, you have to ring a bell out the front and someone (usually a different person every time) will come and get your child and take them, the same with pick up, the centre feels very disconnected from family interaction or involvement. I’m unsure if they don’t want parents to see the mess etc. I know not all staff are bad and I’m sure they may have changed from when my son went there but I really didn’t feel at ease leaving him there. At the time there was a staff member who had a car whose number plate said shag wagon which is just inappropriate for a childcare centre.

There truly aren’t enough positive words to express the incredible care, love, and attention Early Steps has given my son. From just 8 months old until he started big school at nearly 5, he was nurtured by a team that felt more like family. The growth and development we witnessed during his time there were remarkable (socially, emotionally, and academically). My heart was always full knowing he was part of such a warm, supportive, and beautifully multicultural community. We will always be grateful for the role Early Steps played in shaping his early years.

Our little boy just started his first week at Early Steps Childcare Centre, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing team. His educators Jini, Kristen, and Michelle have been so welcoming and caring, and all the staff are absolutely lovely. It’s never easy starting childcare, but seeing how happy and settled Harvey has been already gives us so much peace of mind. Thank you to everyone at Early Steps for making his first week so special!

We are so grateful to have found Early Steps Childcare Center for our daughter. When she first started, she was very shy and hesitant, especially because English is not her first language—she comes from a Korean background. At the beginning, she had some challenges with communication and adjusting to a new environment. However, thanks to the caring and professional educators at Early Steps, she has blossomed in such a short time. The staff created a warm, inclusive, and supportive atmosphere that helped her feel safe and confident. Now, she looks forward to going to the center every day, and she’s learning so much—not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. One of the most amazing changes we’ve seen is her language development. She now speaks English fluently and interacts comfortably with her peers and teachers. It’s been a joy to watch her grow and thrive. I highly recommend Early Steps Childcare Center to any family, especially those from multicultural or non-English-speaking backgrounds. The team truly understands how to support children from diverse cultures and helps them feel at home while encouraging their development every step of the way.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Early Steps Child Care. From the very first day, the staff welcomed our family with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care for our child’s development and well-being. The environment is clean, safe, and thoughtfully organized to support learning through play. The caregivers are not only attentive and nurturing but also highly skilled in early childhood education. Our child is always excited to go each day, which speaks volumes about the loving and engaging atmosphere they’ve created. We especially appreciate the regular updates, photos, and open communication from the staff, it gives us peace of mind knowing our child is in such capable hands. We’ve seen incredible growth in our child’s social skills, confidence, and curiosity since enrolling. Highly recommended to any parent looking for quality care and a nurturing start for their little one!
