Our begins from the moment children enter our centre. Building children’s confidence, a strong sense of self, conflict resolution, creativity and collaboration are part of our program from the start.

My daughter has been attending Gowrie for about 6 months now. She loves it so much that as soon as she sees my in work uniform she points to the door telling me it is time to go. When we arrive she has her arms outstretched for her educators to take her for a cuddle and she gives me a little wave. It makes my job as a working mum a bit easier knowing she is happy and well cared for by her educators. The transition from going from Maternity leave to return to the workforce full time was certainly a very daunting task for a working mum and I like most parents are concerned if I am doing the right thing by putting my baby girl in care. The team at Gowrie have gone above and beyond to assist not only my little girls transition to care but my own personal transition too. They share her day with me each and everyday. I love the little updates, it makes me feel like I am there experiencing her learning first hand. My daughter is so happy when I return to collect her each afternoon reinforcing that she is well cared for and has built secure relationships with the whole team at Gowrie. I am so happy we made Gowrie our choice for our little girls education and care.

Wish I never ever sent my toddler there, I refuse to send him to another one again until he can speak, only been there 3 days and the amount of muscle he use to go back the car the second he see a school or even boss baby he crys and runs away screaming with tears, like the first day was better then anydays and shouldn't that be the worse. But for real I seen the change in my son from them short amount of days, like I did picked him one one the second day he had nothing to eat all day and they let him cry himself to sleep I wouldnt mind if she told me straight up but for me to finish work and picking my baby up after I didn't gave a crap about the unrelated stuff you started to talk about until I picked my son up who was still crying in hes sleep then I realised awh she tried to stall me if she was straight up i wpuldnt have cared but to not tell me wowwww. Not only that it really annoyed me that my baby was sick and had temp that night then I had no choice to send him back the next day.
