Helen from Helen’s Family daycare in Seacliff Park has been absolutely wonderful for our little boy! Having never used a childcare before and with our 3yr old boy having development delays and sensory issues- we were quite nervous. As soon as we met Helen, she was so lovely, kind and good with our boy. She was very understanding, and really took the time to learn about him and how she could best help him settle in. It was so lovely seeing him thrive and Helen’s daycare really helped his development and socialising skills improve. I would definitely recommend Helen’s family daycare to anyone looking for a small, friendly, caring, family type feel.

Helen has been absolutely wonderful to take care of our little one from about 18 months to almost 3 years. We reduced our days at childcare because our son was getting colds every second week leading always causing an asthma flare up & Helen provided a perfect solution. She is incredibly professional with the paperwork and always meeting the quality & standards. There was always something different to play with and the art and craft was more special than childcare that’s for sure! Themed take home art was always our favourite and will always be cherished. Helen also provided us with great updates throughout the day and photos of what our son was up to. Communication 100%! Quality 100%! Safety 100%! Helen showed genuine care & we felt very lucky to be part of Helen’s family day care. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Our 2 kids were with Helen from when they went into child care. Helen offers a wonderful homely environment where our kids were able to flourish. Helen invests in the kids and helps them grow and explore while catering to their unique needs. Would highly recommend Helens services.

Parent testimonials - 

'My daugher Jessica has been in Helens care on a Wednesday and Friday for approximately 1 year. Helen is one of a kind, truly professional and fantastic with the children. Her care and attention is second to none and she is the best in her field. Always so happy and full of energy. My daughter truly loves her days at Helen's. My husband and I have noticed how much Jessica is learning whilst in Helen's care ranging from her speech, behaviour and interaction with other children which is a testament to the effort that Helen puts in. It feels like a family unit and we couldn't be happier. I couldn't think of anyone more deserving of an award in excellence than Helen for her service in the child care field'.

'Helen has been our son Lincoln's family day care educator since January this year, just before I returned to full time work. This was a very stressful time as Lincoln was only 9 months old and I felt a lot of guilt and anxiety having to return to work earlier than planned. After visiting multiple early learning centres and family day carers in our area, we were so lucky to have found Helen and couldn't be happier. OUr son adores her and Helen equally adores him. I have the utmost confidence in the care that Helen provides and the beautiful environment that our son and the other children are blessed to have whilst in her care. There are multiple environments including outdoor areas which was important to my husband and I as Lincoln loves the outddors and it's an important part of the way we are bringing him up. His develpment is thriving, both gross and language and at 14 months old we have been told by our paediatrician that he is quite advance in a number of areas. Helen provides amazing sensory activities and age appropriate equipment for all ages which is change over regularly to ensure the children don't tire of the same thing each day. Helen keeps me updated throughout the day with how he's been going, sleeps, food and sends me photos of him which makes it so much easier having to leave him each day. We adore Helen and believe her dedication to our son and all the other children in her care makes her a very worthy receipient of an award.'
