We attended an orientation for our child and were very disappointed. During our one-hour visit, several children were left unattended in the backyard while staff focused mainly on paid dance classes. Children not in those classes appeared to receive very little supervision. We also witnessed a serious safety issue where a child had a piece of wood or stone in his mouth, which staff did not notice until we pointed it out. This could have resulted in a choking incident. Additionally, after outdoor play, children were taken inside for lunch without washing their hands. Due to these safety and hygiene concerns, we decided not to proceed with enrolment.

As recent arrivals to Australia, we were so relieved to find Green Leaves Merrifield; they made our child feel at home instantly. The center provides a true five-star experience, led by the professional and lovely Director, Shanna. The environment is beautiful, but it’s the people who make it special—Sarah in admin is wonderful, and educators like Priya, Maree, and Pulkit are incredibly caring and kind. Our child felt safe and loved here, and I cannot recommend this center highly enough to other local parents.

Amazing educators who go above and beyond in providing quality care.. My son has become more independent and developed immense curiosity in learning new things. Love the care and support that the children get in the centre.

My son has only started recently, but the kindness and support shown by all the staff has been so wonderful! He is still crying at drop off, but Usha is so kind and caring that he soon settles in. The reassuring phone call from Sam that he stopped crying immediately was so appreciated. It really eased my mind. My son is always so happy playing when I watch him through the windows at pick up time, so I am certain that he is enjoying his time at Greenleaves. The treats provided to families are so delicious and the little seating area is a wonderful place to decompress and chat to my son about his day while having a little snack. We are very happy so far and grateful for the care and kindness shown by all at Greenleaves.

We are so grateful for the sense of community and belonging that my daughter experiences at Green Leaves Early Learning Centre. It is a wonderful environment for children to learn, grow, and thrive. The educators, management and admin staff are truly dedicated and passionate and we really appreciate their open communication and positive impact they have on my daughter’s development.

Green Leaves Merrifield has been a true blessing for my 3 year old son. In other centres, it's taken him months to settle in and make connections. Green Leaves, it has only taken 1.5 weeks. The staff have been amazing, so helpful and caring. The food cooked my their chef daily has been amazing. He comes home asking me to cook the same thing. The directors are so friendly, happy to have a chat about any concerns I have. I wish I found this centre sooner. Thank you Green Leaves Merrifield Team.
