I’d love to share some feedback about my son and how much he has been loving kinder lately. He absolutely adores the country kinder excursions and is always coming home telling us about trees, bushland stories and everything he is learning about nature. Since country kinder started this term, he has been talking so deeply about the land, the sky and the sun, and constantly saying, “I love nature.” It’s honestly been so beautiful and funny to listen to. He has been randomly striking up these deep little conversations at home saying things like, “You know what doesn’t belong in nature? Humans!” and “You can be a tree cutting man or a tree growing man and I want to be a tree growing man!” It’s so clear these experiences are really making him think and connect with the world around him. Another thing that has meant a lot to us is how supportive you have have been with his love for the “Do Not Open This Book” collection. Letting him bring the books in, share them with the class and listen along to the audio versions has made him feel so proud and excited. He even came home and recreated it all for me one day. Most of all, I love hearing how warmly he talks about all of you. He is always telling me who made him laugh, who read with him, who created with him or helped him during the day. It’s obvious he feels really safe, cared for and connected there, and so lovely to see the genuine care and effort your team puts into the kids every single day. We’re really grateful for everything you all do ❤️

Our Bub is loving his time at Gowrie. He is always so happy to enter his room. Ranju is a fantastic Early Years Leader and her team are so supportive. He is always greeted with the biggest smiles by his educators as he is welcomed into the room each day. They have helped us with his sleep, supported his language and are so helpful all around. He comes home from daycare so happy, talkative and full of new skills every single day. He loves the outdoor play in the water and the sand (and Mum loves that she doesn’t have to clean up after it.) We are so grateful that the facility has such a large outdoor area for our boy to explore. The centre manager obviously cares so much about the kids in her care, she is always out and about talking to families and making her way through the rooms. The reception team are lovely too, always too happy to help and giving friendly smiles to our boy. At pick up time it’s so great that any of his educators can tell us about his day and are fully knowledgeable of his likes and interests. We couldn’t ask for a better daycare for bub.

I feel so lucky to have this centre in Broadmeadows. The staff are so incredibly caring supportive. I really feel like these educators care about my son like he is their own child. Beautiful clean facilities with heaps of toys to help with development and imagination! Children are free to explore inside and outside as they wish while educators always keep a watchful eye. Ratios are strictly adhered to, and casual staff come from a small pool directly employed by the centre, so you don’t need to worry about random agency staff coming in and out. The kitchen team and educators make sure there is beautiful fresh food available for the children to eat all day. If you are lucky enough to live or work close to this centre it should be the first one you tour. I could keep writing but this place speaks for itself.

Words cannot do justice to the service Gowrie Broadmeadows provides. They have played the biggest role in helping us raise our young ones. As working parents, we truly can’t imagine a world without them; we trust and depend on Gowrie more than anything, and they have never let us down. A huge thank you to everyone at the center—keep up the amazing work!" - the family of zrr

Gowrie Broadmeadows Valley is rated EXCELLENT by the national accreditation body because it is exceptional! I highly recommend visiting to discover the warm and diverse community children and families join when they enrol. Educators, ECTs and associated staff are highly empathetic, creative and well credentialled. It is a safe and fun environment in which children experience belonging and growth. Our family will really struggle to say goodbye when our third and final child completes kinder at the end of the year.

This place offers great childcare service with friendly and helpful staffs.

Although our child only attended Gowrie for just over a year . I can't thank The manager, staff, teachers, and educators enough. From the get go they were so welcoming and friendly. The Educators and Admin staff go above and beyond. The children in their care are so lucky to have such a diverse staffing model, the best i have seen yet!! Always offering solutions and strategies or individual children which require extra support. Thank you so much to the Gowrie Team ! I hope we meet again one day . It has been a pleasure. support for families and community is also outpouring. Staff have diverse cultural background yet are able work together for the best interest of the children, families, and the community. The work culture is that of respect, support, and growth mindset which is also reflected in the children's program. Kudos to everyone in this centre. I feel so blessed to have been a part of this team. Show Few

Excellent Childcare Centre!! Educators and EYFS teachers are all amazing with kids and extremely caring. My two kids currently attending are always happy to go and have always been sharing fun activities they have had at the centre. My third child who attended the last two years, still tells me about things she learned during the time she attended and I am so amazed about how many experiences and learning she was exposed to, during her time there! Excursions and learning through meaningful and child-centred activities have given all my kids valuable skills! I can’t explain how caring ALL the educators are and how they always make sure my kids are safe and happy. I would HIGHLY recommend it to every parent!
