With all the turmoil surrounding the childcare centers, I will leave my honest review. My daughter attended in 2024, but I pulled her out because they left the room unsupervised for at least 15 minutes with five kids inside. I was waiting for the educators to come, but no one came. Yes, it was a full 'Karen' move, but I needed to be sure of what was going on. They said one parent left the door open in the morning when dropping off their kid, but still, there were three educators outside chatting, and none checked for the missing kids? I was amazed, which is why I went personally to the educators and told them what was going on, and I complained immediately at the reception. They checked the cameras and apologized, but I couldn't leave her there anymore. Additionally, I also saw educators working in the kitchen a couple of times. I noticed poor hygiene when changing nappies, as they were not putting paper or any linen on the changing table between kids or spraying the changing tables between uses. She was coming home with bites, and on a couple of occasions, no one did an incident report or noticed that this happened to my daughter (imagine that!). She was also coming home with nappy rash, which is extremely concerning. I really hope this helps any parent seeking information for their children.

Little Locals in Brisbane deserves the highest rating possible. When my family and I relocated from Perth, we were apprehensive about how our little boy would adapt to the new environment. However, Little Locals went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transition for him. From the moment we walked through their doors, we were greeted by their incredibly friendly and always smiling staff. Their commitment to exceptional customer service was evident in every interaction we had with them. What impressed us the most was how easily accessible their customer service was. Whenever we had a question or concern, they were just a phone call away, ready to assist us promptly and efficiently. Their dedication to ensuring our satisfaction was truly remarkable. Overall, I cannot express how satisfied I am with the service provided by Little Locals. They not only helped my little boy feel at home in Brisbane but also made the entire relocation process much smoother for our family. Their staff's unwavering positivity and their commitment to excellent customer service truly set them apart. Little Locals is undoubtedly deserving of the highest rating for their outstanding service.

Absolutely awful experience. Some educators are lovely but on the whole the centre really lets down the educators, parents and mostly the children. In late 2023 We had a long, ongoing experience of being bitten almost daily, severe nappy rash, sun burn, being left alone in the room, staff being bullied - hopefully it’s improved since then. But as this was our first daycare experience I regret leaving my child there so long, especially when comparing to our new centre and seeing how good it can be

Great kindy, would recommend to anyone.

Our family could not rate little locals Auchenflower more highly! Our little guy came from a family daycare to this centre and we could not be happier to have made the move. Everyone there, from management, the educators and the chefs, are just the most wonderful, caring and accomdating crew we could ask for! They have truly gone above and BEYOND to cater for my son and my needs as a nervous first time mum. The centre is so beautiful and provides such a wonderful atmosphere and environment for our little guy to live his best life. I feel so comfortable leaving him in the capable hands of all the staff there and love that he has each meal made fresh for him by the chefs onsite. Truly a wonderful centre

Nurturing educators who care about the development of children and individuals, really nice facilities (including splash pads, in ground trampolines, an INDOOR SLIDE) and programs including Pilates and the much loved bush kindy. Our child has thrived in his time with little locals - he has built strong relationships with other children and staff, and has the confidence to try new things. He absolutely loves coming here. Highly recommend.

My daughter has attended Little Locals for over a year now and we love the centre. The staff are incredible: reliable and kind. The centre is beautiful and the children are happy.

Could this be the first childcare centre built for kids?! I always thought childcare centres, were built for the purpose of adults needs, until I stepped into Little Locals Auchenflower! Seeing is believing! The facilities are second to none. What child doesn’t like a water park! Indoor play slide! Play forts? Not to mention Bush Kindy, Pilates, Music, and Dance lessons. The food is made by a qualified chef, my daughter loves the food so much, I recreate some of the recipes at home! As a parent you often worry is my baby / child ok? I don’t worry at all, I know my daughter is in a supportive, inclusive environment and having the time of her life!

We love Little Locals. The management and educators are professional, capable, friendly and really dedicated to the needs of the children. Our daughter enjoys the extra-curricular activities such as Bush Kindy, Pilates, Henny Penny Chickens and Wild Animal Encounters - there is always something new and exciting. Karen the chef cooks a variety of healthy, fresh meals. The centre has been built so beautifully in an old church and who doesn’t love the indoor slide !
