Delivering First Aid and CPR training with your staff was a brilliant experience. The way your team linked the skills to real student needs and responded with clarity and confidence was impressive. Your Early Learning Center is clearly proactive, not reactive—something every parent would be thrilled to know.

My daughter has been at the centre for 2.5 years and we couldn’t be happier. It’s the people who make it truly special. The educators are caring, supportive and genuinely invested in the kids well-being and development. I’ve always felt confident knowing my daughter is in capable and nurturing hands.

We have been at the centre for 4+ years, having a few children go through. I feel my children have always been well looked after and embraced for the unique and amazing individuals they are. The staff have always been readily available and very approachable to talk through any question or query. The hard work and dedication the staff put in does not go unnoticed and my children have also loved going. I highly recommended this centre.

We have been at this centre for 3.5 years now and they have been incredible. There is so much to love about it, but as in most places, it's the people that make it. The educators are extraordinary. Too many to mention here. They're warm, friendly, funny, caring and attentive. Our son struggled with separation and then his transition to primary and they went above and beyond to support him/us. The facility is new and the rooms are full of things for the littlies to do. They have a wealth of activities always happening and an outside area that was our kids favourite part of the day. Highly recommend 😊

I did have a positive comment for the previous owners formally known as Croydon Early Learning, but have now removed it for the new owners. I would not recommend this centre under the new management. My daughter got covid from this school, they failed to advise other parents, upon investigating, I spoke to another parent who their son got covid, reported it but the school didn't transfer this information. My child returned home with a grazed chin, she said a swing hit her, no report was done by staff nor was I notified. You have multiple different student teachers coming and going so much so it's a little concerning for the children, more so the young ones. You have the teacher to student ratios not being met, I know I hear the conversations between the staff. One day 2 students were left in charge over the Christmas quite time, a lady comes in and asks how many do you have now? The male student was lost for words and couldn't answer, and the female student said "I'm not sure" If you enter the foyer at the right time, you can hear about staff complaining about another staff member to the directors about how late another staff is from coming back from their lunch break, leaving the ratio unbalanced. Or you could be stepping over boxes trying to sign your child in or even down the hall. I have witnessed 2 wonderful teachers trying to escort 15 kids 2 to 3 yrs up concrete stairs while trying to carry other infants in their arms and phones, sunblock hats, kids climbing each other trying to get up the stairs. One teacher trying to hold a heavy fire exit door open for the kids and leaving 1 teacher to manage the kids up the stairs. Not very safe. School was given a verbal 2 week notice, and they were notified in writing they didn't not have permission to withdraw on my account, they acknowledged and gave me their bank account details to pay fees, now fees were being paid into their account by myself. This week under isolation due to covid, I was unable to get to the bank to deposit my pay, they withdrawn money from my account without permission, and above the invoice amount. The statement they provided was issued on the 3rd, they sent a you have till 12pm tomorrow text message, but the "Statement Period" finished on the 6th, so how is the statement over due? Sorry but the staff here meaning the teaching staff are amazing teachers. But the new management and directors, are the reason I pulled my child out.

We found CELC when we moved to Croydon in January and were nervous about transitioning our then 2 year old to a new environment. The staff were (and are!) so friendly and accommodating that it did not take long for her to feel at home here. We could not be happier with the care our girls have received this year from every member of the team! Thank you CELC :)
