Little Stars recognises that parents are the first and continuing carers and educators of their children. The centre aims to function as an extended family, providing a secure and trusted environment. Educators actively build quality relationships with families, to achieve the best possible outcome for children.

Families are welcome to speak with educators at any time, and are encouraged to share information on a child's interests, culture and personal experiences. This is then used to help provide tailored experiences, and to develop inclusive care practices and play environments.

The centre has clear and easy to follow parent and guardian information. It also provides updates through the year on child activities and centre events.

Moving my daughter from another local centre to Little Stars was the best thing I ever did! The amount of care the staff have for the children is amazing and I know she is well looked after by all educators.

I am extremely dissatisfied with the service. The lack of support for disabilities is concerning. The staff's behavior was unprofessional. My partner's autistic son was informed that he is no longer welcome at the childcare. I strongly advise against enrolling your children there.

I cannot speak highly enough of this daycare! My son is so settled and genuinely happy here. The educators are amazing - kind, patient and extremely supportive to both child and parent. They have made drop offs and transitioning between rooms so easy! He has been there since he was in the nursery room and he’s now in toddler 1 happy and thriving! Aleesha, Tahlia, Paige, Sienna, Leia, Jo and Vi have been so patient with him and so supportive to me over the past 1.5 years! Bel and Jess at the front desk have also always been so kind and willing to help with anything we need! Everyone has made it so easy to trust them with caring for my son while I’m at work and I cannot thank them enough!
