My 5-year-old daughter attends Sylvania Waters OSHC every school holidays, and we honestly couldn’t be happier. She adores it so much that during the school term she’ll ask me, “How many weeks until I get to go back to holiday care?” — and that genuine excitement means everything to us as parents.
The educators are so creative with their activities, and as a family we always look forward to seeing the new holiday timetable. The variety is incredible — from incursions and excursions to Sushi Hub, Scoopi, and so many fun surprises — there’s always something new for her to experience. The staff are not only friendly but genuinely dedicated, and their warmth makes the whole centre feel like a second home.
I’ll admit, I was nervous sending her to OSHC at just five, but from day one the educators have treated her like one of their own. Their communication at drop-off, pick-up, and through the OWNA app is honestly unmatched from anything we’ve seen at other centres. They’re always making sure she’s happy, settled, and well cared for — even when it comes to her eating. The meals are so nutritious and thoughtful, and somehow they get my very fussy eater trying new foods and coming home telling me how delicious everything was! haha
We share our experience proudly with friends because Sylvania Waters OSHC has been such a positive part of our daughter’s life. We truly couldn’t be happier.

Thank you so much Angie, for this beautiful review. Your kind words truly mean the world to our entire team. Knowing that your daughter looks forward to the holidays because of our OOSH is the biggest compliment ever!
We put a lot of thought into creating programs that are fun, engaging and full of variety, so hearing that your family enjoys the timetable as much as we enjoy planning them makes us incredibly proud. Our educators absolutely adore having your daughter with us! Her curiosity, personality, and enthusiasm always brighten our days 😂
We completely understand the nerves of sending a five-year-old to an OOSH and we’re so grateful for the trust you’ve placed in us from day one. It’s wonderful to hear that our communication, care and routines have helped you feel confident and supported. And we love that she’s trying (and enjoying!) new foods, as we have to admit, our fussy eaters keep us on our toes! 😂
Thank you for sharing your experience so openly and for recommending us to others. We’re honoured to be a positive part of your daughter’s schooling journey and can’t wait to share many more holidays and special memories with her.
Warmest thanks from all of us at Sylvania Waters OSHC 🥹
