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! ♡
