We honestly couldn’t be happier with this childcare centre. Before finding this place, we changed our older son’s childcare three different times. Every time, we felt there was a lack of proper management and communication, and unfortunately, we didn’t always feel that the educators genuinely cared about the children. As parents, it was very difficult to leave our child somewhere when we didn’t feel completely comfortable and confident in the care they were receiving.<br><br>Now, both of our beautiful boys attend this childcare, and we can honestly say that we finally feel they are in the best hands. ❤️<br><br>The educators are absolutely amazing. They are caring, kind, patient and genuinely attentive to the children. You can see that they really care about what they do and treat the children with so much love and respect. The management is also wonderful, approachable and very supportive of both the children and the families.<br><br>Our older son absolutely loves going to childcare, and our younger one is only 1½ years old, but we can already see how happy and comfortable he is there. He gets excited to go, enjoys the activities, and is becoming more confident and settled every day.<br><br>We also really appreciate the variety of activities they provide every day. The children have opportunities to play, learn, explore and develop new skills in such a fun and positive environment.<br><br>As parents, the most important thing is knowing that our children are safe, happy and genuinely cared for. We now have complete peace of mind when we leave them each morning, knowing they are surrounded by educators who truly care about them.<br><br>After going through three different childcare centres with our older son, finding this centre has been such a blessing for our family. We are so grateful to all the educators and management for the care, love and effort they put into our children every day.<br><br>Without a doubt, the best childcare we have experienced in Canberra. We highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring, supportive and welcoming childcare centre. ❤️⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lovely staff and kids are engaged

I view myself as extremely lucky to have found Appletree. You have the best childcare facility, making both teaching and learning interesting. Educators are very caring, friendly and kind. Thank you Olga for the above and beyond care. And to Shas, who is always very accomodating, thank you for making early childhood education and children’s safety your primary focus.

Amazing, supportive and caring educators with a wealth of knowledge and experience. All three of my children have gone through Appletree and we are forever grateful for the great start, love and guidance they gave our children.

Illoura is a great childcare centre as it is quite small in size so i find that my son feels very comfortable there because he knows most if not everyone there. He is always greeted by his name and a big smile, even if it is not his educator his name is always used which I see as a great example of the time and care they put in with the children. Would definitely recommend this centre to others!!

Friendly, caring, great communication, fun, safe, well resourced, great food, great size and community culture, good program, ability to book extra ad hoc days if available!
