We love Spunky Monkeys! As first time parents we felt quite apprehensive and overwhelmed about the thought of having our daughter in daycare but valued the importance of early learning and socialisation. From the very beginning, Spunky Monkeys have been wonderful! The director is very easy to communicate with face-to-face as well as via email, no question or enquiry is too much trouble and is very adaptive to any circumstance, all the while being so calm, caring and happy! The educators make our daughter feel so safe, that is what is most important to us as parents! They are all so approachable, create such a nurturing environment for our daughter, always give a detailed handover of how our daughters’ day has been and are so encouraging to make goals for our daughter and aim to achieve them! Lots of time is spent outside which we love, the nap room is beautifully zen, the food menu is verstatile and offers a wide range for all appetites and the centre appears really clean! The app is a great way to keep up to date on how our daughter is going at daycare and allows us not to worry while we are at work.

There's a lot of bad day care centres around and seems another one is in the news on a daily basis, so I thought I would share my experience of Spunky Monkeys for any new mums out there looking to put their child in day care. My daughter attended here from 5 months old up until 5 years old when she started kindy this year. She and I absolutely loved our time at Spunky Monkeys and I'm so glad we picked a good one. The educators are all so kind, caring and supportive. My daughter loved going here and made so many great friends that we still keep in touch with. I never had a bad experience here and regarded most of the educators as friends and I was so happy with the job they did of looking after my daughter when I had to go to work. Thanks for everything guys and keep up the good work.

We've had such a wonderful experience with spunky money lemongrove over the past year. Our eldest daughter started here at just 4 months old and is now a confident, happy 18-month-old who absolutely loves going each day. The educators have been so caring, nurturing, and attentive to her needs—especially through big milestones like teething, first steps, and even the occasional emotional day. The communication has always been great, and it really feels like the staff know and genuinely care for the children. We’ve loved seeing how much our daughter has learned and grown here, and we feel so reassured knowing she’s in such a supportive environment. We’re now excited to be starting our 5-month-old here soon as well—we couldn’t think of a better place for her to begin. Huge thanks to the whole team for all the love and care you give! ♡

I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care both of my kids receive at this daycare! The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive! I also appreciate how the staff regularly communicates with us about our children's progress and milestones. It's reassuring to know they are in such capable hands while we are at work. I truly feel that my kids are in the best place possible. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a loving, professional, and outstanding daycare

Just put my son who is 2 into spunky monkeys and he has already learnt so many new things like his colours and learning to play with others would highly recommend spunky monkeys to anyone and everyone

I moved all the way from Castle Hill just so my children can have the finest education in all of Australia at Spunky Monkeys Early Learning Centre. Me and the other mums at the Jesus Club have advocated for all the youngins in the area to support this fine establishment.

All 4 of my children have attended 3 of the Spunky Monkeys centres, Penrith, Lemongrove and the previous Box Hill centre ranging from 2009 until currently. I can honestly say all of my children are enthusiastic about going to "School" each day and have loved being at these centres. The staff are amazing and caring and I cannot thank them enough for all of their hard work, day in day out for everything they have taught my children whilst showing care and kindness. They are constantly doing activities they love but also having educational programs included. The centres are not large numbers, so it always felt like a close-knit family. Karena, you have built these centres into very reputable and wonderful daycares, you should be proud of them and all of your staff.

We have been going to Spunky Monkeys for the past 3 years and I couldn’t have picked a better place to send my kids. Everyday they tell me about what they’ve done and what they’ve eaten and who they’ve played with and it always sounds like so much fun. I know the Educators love my kids and it gives me so much comfort knowing how well they are being cared for whilst I’m at work.

My 1 year old has been going there for about 8 months now and we couldn't be happier. From extremely friendly educators to proper tracking of goals, from crafting and yard time to tracking daily routine on an app, this place is perfect. The people care for the children and it shows, it really does. My girl is happy. Happy when I drop her off, happy when I pick her up. And educators will take time to always speak to you at the end of the day, tell you about small quirky things your child has done, small milestones they checked and that is what I love about this place. After spending the whole day away from your child, that's what you need. I couldn't recommend this centre more!!!
