My family and I moved to Emerald from Brisbane for work, and my daughter, who is now in prep at St Brigid's, was in the kindergarten room for a few months before starting school. My 2.5-year-old is still at F5Y in the senior toddler room, and he loves it. The food is healthy and ample, and the teachers are lovely. They ensure we are constantly updated on what is happening with Will, which is essential to us as two full-time working parents. F5Y is well a well-run early education and childcare facility.

My son has been at the center since opening and has absolutely loved going here. The teachers are amazing and caring and my child has learnt so much in the time he has been there.

First 5 have definitely provided the best care for my 2 boys (3yrs & 1yr). Their wonderful team members make the centre a joyful place to be for the children, but also for us parents as we are rest assured our children are in very capable and caring hands. The opening of First 5 Emerald has been an amazing step for the rural community, and has quickly built a very positive name for itself. Congrats to First 5 on their success 🙌 can't wait to see what the next few years bring!

We have been at First 5 Years since opening and couldn’t be happier. The staff are inviting, bubbly & caring! Our son had made special bonds with the other kids and staff & can not wait to get to Pre-Kindy in the mornings!

We love it at First 5 Years. The educators are all amazing, the activities cater to the children’s interests and abilities. My son loves all the meals provided and he now eats foods he would normally not be interested in. The classrooms and outside area are amazing!
