We are so so happy with our experience so far at Story House ELC Chirnside Park! We started earlier this year, and I am absolutely blown away at how quickly my kids have settled in. It is a huge credit to room leaders and all educators at the centre who have gone above and beyond to get to know my kids. Communication is so very clear and prompt and I appreciate the efforts the staff have gone to, to build a relationship with not only my kids but myself too. Thank you to all staff!!

We recently moved to SHCP and can hands down say it was the best decision ever. Recently attending the one in Doreen, we had high expectations and it has surpassed this. We are so thankful to the amazing educators and staff that have welcomed our girls into their care. I would recommend this center to anyone that asks. Thanks!

Our daughter joined storyhouse when their doors first opened back in 2023. We have had a great experience at the centre with our daughter transitioning well into care with nursery and now into the toddler room. Management are always responsive to any questions/concerns. The facilities are modern, clean and maintained well. The children enjoy a variety of incursions and excursions - my daughter loves the weekly sport and dance class. Good variety of food by chef Norma who all the children adore. We are looking forward to enrolling our new born and continuing our storyhouse journey
