I cannot recommend Parkwood Early Childhood highly enough. Having to withdraw my daughter due to a change in personal circumstances has been genuinely heartbreaking, as we couldn’t have wished for a better childcare experience.<br><br>From day one, the educators have been absolutely wonderful. Their warmth, patience, professionalism and genuine love for the children are evident in everything they do. They took the time to understand my daughter’s individual needs, personality and routines, creating an environment where she felt safe, happy, nurtured and valued.<br><br>The communication with parents is excellent, the learning activities are engaging and thoughtfully planned, and the emphasis on children’s emotional wellbeing, development and independence is outstanding. The centre is welcoming, well organised and provides the kind of reassurance every parent hopes to find.<br><br>What truly sets Parkwood apart is its people. The genuine care, dedication and kindness of the educators are exceptional. Knowing my daughter was in such capable and loving hands gave me invaluable peace of mind.<br><br>I am incredibly sad that our circumstances mean we have to say goodbye. If I had the choice, I would keep my daughter here without hesitation.<br><br>To the entire Parkwood team, thank you for everything you have done for my little girl. You have made such a positive difference in her early years, and we will miss you dearly. ❤️<br><br>I wholeheartedly recommend Parkwood to any parent looking for an exceptional childcare centre.

My 2 boys have been attending this Centre for a few years now, my 4yr old for full-day daycare and my 7yr old for before & after school care + holiday care, and I couldn't be happier with this centre. The staff are amazing with the kids, so warm and gentle, the rooms are big and bright, always with lots of the kids' artwork on display and so many resources for the kids. It's also super convenient for me that they offer drop off to and pick up from Arundel State across the road. I can highly recommend Parkwood Early Childhood to any parent :)

We couldn’t be happier with this kindy. The educators are incredibly caring, patient, and genuinely invested in each child’s wellbeing and development. The environment is welcoming, nurturing, and thoughtfully set up to encourage learning through play. Communication with families is excellent, and it’s clear how much pride the team takes in what they do. Our child has settled in beautifully and looks forward to going each day, which says everything. Highly recommend to any family looking for a supportive and high-quality kindy experience.

As a mum returning to work with anxiety about being separated from my twin daughters, felt so overwhelming, until I found Happyland. From day one, the team took all my children in with open arms. They have genuinely cared for the wellbeing of each of them, treating them like their own and always supporting us in every way possible. Our family has faced some hurdles over the past year, and Happyland has been our constant. They helped us adjust to a new life, kept normality in my children's routines, and have gone above and beyond to support their growth, confidence and needs. The centre has truly become my village. What could have been a daunting and emotional time became a complete walk in the park, thanks to Karen and her team. A true blessing to our family - thank you.

The staff at Happylands kindy go above and beyond to make sure my kids are happy, safe and well looked after when they are in care. I am so grateful for them and the positive impact they have had on my kids, especially helping them in their transition to kindy. Karen and the team do an absolutely incredible job and go above and beyond! If you’re looking for an amazing kindergarten for your children - this is my number 1 centre!

Wow the new owners have transformed the centre already and looks amazing.

Happyland has been a great experience from the start. The staff are friendly, attentive, and create a positive environment where children feel comfortable and supported. The centre is well-run, clean, and organised, and the daily activities keep the kids engaged and happy. Communication with families is clear and consistent, which makes everything easier. Overall, it’s a reliable, welcoming place where children are well looked after and encouraged to learn and grow.

We’ve been part of the Happyland family for the past 3.5 years, and I can honestly say it’s been the most wonderful journey. The educators are kind, patient, and genuinely care about every child they go above and beyond to make each family feel supported, understood, and included. Happyland has given our children the most beautiful start to their learning journey. The staff create such a nurturing, engaging, and joy filled environment where children feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. Their communication and commitment to each child’s growth has meant the world to us. Thank you to the entire Happyland team for everything you’ve done, your love, care, and support over the years will never be forgotten

Can not praise Karen, Taylor, Sarah and the rest of the staff at happyland about just how amazing and supportive they are. Was having huge struggles with my son to the point I had to pull him out of prep. They have been absolutely amazing in the amount of support they have given us and even his reintroduction to school next year. I would recommend happy land to absolutely everyone!

My daughter went there and loved the teachers. The staff were great, caring and supportive. I would recommend them to anyone.
