We had a very tough experience with our son’s previous childcare, where he cried every day and didn’t want to go. Changing to Little Zak’s was the best decision we made. From day one, he settled in happily, started playing right away, and hasn’t looked back since. Over the past year, he’s been consistently happy, enjoys going every day, and has really thrived. The centre is modern, well-designed, and the separate playgrounds for different age groups are fantastic. Most importantly, the caring environment has made a huge difference for our family. Highly recommend Little Zak’s to any parent looking for a positive childcare experience.

We have been at this kindergarten for over a year now, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. The centre has fantastic, modern facilities, a bright, clean and safe environment, and everything is well-maintained and child-friendly. The teachers are incredibly kind, caring and patient. Miss Kajal is wonderful with Oscar—she supports him with learning, drawing, writing and daily care, and makes every day enjoyable. Director Viveka and the whole team create such a warm, nurturing atmosphere. We are so happy and grateful to have chosen this kindergarten for Oscar!

We moved our three boys over to Little Zak’s Dundas Valley when it opened and have been very happy with the service. My boys have enjoyed going and have made a great relationship with the teachers. Special shout out to Ms K and Ms S in the inventors room who are so kind and patient with the children.

What the parents say

What the parents say

"This is the first daycare my son has ever went to, I was ball full of emotions. Meeting the teachers I felt so much better! Sonny Ray LOVES school, he runs up to the door and always tells me about his teachers! ...He's learning so much there and comes home telling me about his day and his friends. He brings home beautiful art, it’s just a breath of fresh air knowing he is happy and loves his school. I love how they write down how much he ate in the app and when his nappy was changed! My absolute favourite is the photos of him playing at school. I highly recommend Little Zak's at Adamstown" - Samantha

"We have been delighted with Little Zaks Adamstown - our little girl absolutely loves it there. The rooms are great, they have appropriate toys and activities and the outdoor area is excellent. She has made lots of friends and we are quite often amazed by the new skills she brings home from the centre. She has been assisted tremendously through her potty training journey there as well. A big thank you to the educators and 'non-educator' staff who do such an amazing job with out little ones!" - Michael
