Fantastic day care with wonderful carers. Our daughter loves it, and happily tells us about her day each night. There are lots of different spaces for the children to play in, including an excellent outdoors area which is quite shady. There is also a covered outdoors area so the kids can still play outdoors during poor weather.

Dated 8.05.2025 Thank you very much for your feedback and its good to hear about the pragmatic steps forward. Based on my observations, the acting director at the time, Mel, was a burden to the business and lacked basic care. Well done and best of luck to you. Kind regards, Red **** Uneven terrain at rear yard with trip hazards probable, stormwater run off issues, nappies at half the time left unchanged upon pick up. When applying to add a sibling a lack of logic and care for the kids was exercised due to a technicality of forms process. In contrast to other centres, centre mgt will facilitate enough notice and guidance that need to be filled. *High* staff turnover, adding that Mel, the acting director, at the time sends policy feedback to parents. But no acknowledgment of whether feedback would be considered or not. Lacking 'basic' skills to consult. Basic. If I could report a number of non-compliances at this premises to council, I would. But I was happy that there were a few great educators there.

Response from the owner 16 Apr 2025

Thank you Redentor for your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience in the past. According to our records, your child attended the service approximately four years ago, under different ownership and management. Since then, the service has undergone significant changes, including a new management team that is deeply committed to building strong partnerships with families. Today, we are proud to have a dedicated and experienced team—including these outstanding educators you’ve come to know and trust—with low staff turnover. Our families often share how much they appreciate the nurturing environment we provide and the strong, lasting relationships we’ve built together. We also want to highlight that during our most recent assessment and rating visit by the Regulatory Authority, we received an Exceeding rating in Standard 3.1 of the National Quality Standard (NQS). This rating reflects the high quality of our facilities, including both indoor and outdoor spaces, as well as our focus on maintaining safe, clean, and engaging environments for children. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts. We wish you and your family all the best.

My son started at 9 months here, whilst he didn't take to it at first, the beautiful staff would always seek ways to assist the transition to help make it a better experience for him. Now he is 2 and stands at our front door ready to go. My daughter has also started and she also has a great time. We love how the owner takes a hand on approach within the centre and every single staff member has been so amazing to our kids we absolutely will recommend to anyone.

About Little Palace Preschool

Welcome to Montessori Junior Gymea!

Catering to children aged 6 weeks to 5 years, Montessori Junior Gymea offers families a home-away-from-home experience where children feel welcome and nurtured. The skilled and qualified educators follow a child-led and open-ended program, learning alongside the children in their daily investigations and discoveries. This play-based approach nurtures the whole child and sets them up for success at school and beyond.

The modern outdoor play space is colourful and spacious, with ample opportunities for the children to develop their gross motor and physical skills while they explore. The area is well-shaded for sun-safe play and includes slides, climbing equipment and a cubby house. The children are free to run, jump, climb, crawl and play.

Indoors, the learning areas are equally colourful thanks to the children’s artwork that hangs from the walls. The rooms are light and bright to inspire a calm sense of learning. They are also equipped with a wide range of resources that support the different learning needs and styles of the children.

Conveniently located on the corner of two residential streets, the centre is easy to access with parking available on site. Why not book a tour of this warm and welcoming centre today?
