Our 2.5 year old daughter has been attending Active Kids since she was 7 months old, and she always leaves with a big smile, showing how much she loves it there. The long-term educators at Active Kids Hillcrest genuinely love their jobs and treat our daughter as if she were their own. Any concerns we’ve had have been promptly addressed without hesitation. The facilities and outdoor play area are consistently clean and well-maintained. We are confident in sending our second baby to Active Kids when the time comes.

Now all three of my children have attended this centre and I cannot fault it, The educators and director are so caring and always go above and beyond for the kiddies. They’re all so welcoming and the kids absolutely love them, even my eldest who doesn’t attend anymore loves seeing everyone there. If I was to recommend a centre this one would be it 🫶🏼 And you can bet if I have anymore kiddies they will also be going here ❤️
