The best daycare around! My son has been attending Una for just over a year now and it has been the best experience. I personally found the whole concept of putting my baby into daycare so hard. I didn't want to be away from him and I was really upset about having to go back to work and have "strangers" raise him instead of me. I went to several daycares and just didn't get a good vibe until I went to Una after hearing amazing reviews off a local facebook group and old work colleagues. The educators treat my little one in such a caring, calm and nurturing way, we always feel so comfortable dropping him off- knowing he is having fun and learning so much. I love how much effort they put into all the activities but mostly how attentive and accommodating they are to each childs needs. Whether it's adjusting sleep, changing bottle requirements or addressing developmental behaviours- they always do their best to work with what we are trying to achieve. As a family with no family support, having such a caring, reliable and passionate daycare centre has given us the amazing "village" that everyone talks about needing when raising a family. Thank you to the admin team and all the amazing educators for creating such a wonderful environment for our babies - you are making such an impact and we are so grateful!

We've been using Chatterbox/Una for seven years and with many more to come. We love it here. The continuity of staff is excellent, and everything is managed seamlessly. Staff are continually professionally developed (Well done to Miss Jordana for furthering her career with her undergraduate degree!), which is testament to hers and everyone's commitment to professionally understanding, nourishing, and growing young children. All staff genuinely and professionally care for their work and for the children and their families. We couldn't have hoped for better.

Una Paddington (formerly Chatterbox) is a wonderful centre - well-qualified, caring and professional long-term staff; outstanding leadership team; excellent programming/activities; and highly responsive to any additional child needs. We have been with the centre since 2022 (and returned after a short stint in a local community kindy). We could not feel more supported by the team. I never write public reviews but wanted to share how impressed we are with this centre.

Such an amazing childcare centre. The staff are all so kind and caring and I feel so comfortable knowing my child is very well looked after and happy here.

About Una Paddington

Una Paddington is a little community where children are free to be curious, get messy, make discoveries and, most importantly, simply be children. We believe childhood should be filled with wonder, connection, laughter and opportunities to grow in their own beautiful way.

Our philosophy is guided by five simple beliefs: nature grows us, let them lead, care for your forever home, diversity enriches all, and a little wild does a lot of good. These values are woven into everything we do, from the relationships we build to the experiences we share each day.

Tucked away in the heart of Paddington, our beautiful natural environments offer something truly special for an inner-city centre. From exploring outdoors and caring for our centre animals to gardening and Bush Kindy adventures at our neighbouring park, we love helping children connect with nature.

At the heart of our centre is our wonderful team, with some educators having been part of our Una family for up to 16 years. We treasure the familiar faces, genuine relationships and sense of belonging that make our community so special.

We are proud to offer a wonderful Kindergarten program alongside Queensland's Free Kindy initiative, supporting children as they grow into confident learners ready for school. We love welcoming families from their very first days in our nursery through to their kindergarten years, creating a consistent community where children and families can grow together.

At Una Paddington, it's the little moments that mean so much. The muddy feet, big belly laughs, new friendships and proud achievements. We want every child to feel loved, valued and confident to explore the world, knowing they always have a place to call their own.
