This is the embodiment of what early childhood education should be in Australia. We moved to the hills recently, and were on the waiting list for a while because the place is so popular, but once we got in. Game changer! Both myself and my daughter remember our first orientation day so vividly, one of the staff members went out of her way to be a close friend to my daughter as she was quite daunted by a new centre and leaving her old friendship group. My daughter still has such a fond connection with this educator and since then my daughter has bonded with all the educators. Now that we have been attending for coming up to 8 months with both my daughter and younger son attending, it's really helped us integrate into the community, I remember being invited to the Belgrave Lantern Festival with the DRCCC team which was a great event for the kids and adults to share some fun!, Truely all of the staff are beyond approachable, keep us more informed and updated on our children's learning, growth and day by day happenings. I would highly recommend this centre to anyone! At least we have quite a few years before our youngest departs to school. Thanks to the DRCCC team for letting us be part of your community!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Dandenong Ranges Childcare Centre. Our daughter has been attending for the past two years, and it’s been incredible to watch her grow into such a happy, confident and curious little person.<br><br>The educators are absolutely amazing – warm, caring, patient and genuinely invested in every child’s development. It’s obvious they truly love what they do, and that shines through in the relationships they’ve built with the children and families.<br><br>The centre has such a welcoming, nurturing environment, and we’ve always felt completely comfortable leaving our daughter in their care. Communication is excellent, the activities are engaging and educational, and it’s clear that so much thought goes into creating meaningful experiences for the kids every day.<br><br>As parents, there’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is safe, loved and excited to go to childcare each morning. We are so grateful for everything the team has done for our family over the last two years and couldn’t recommend DRCC more highly. Thank you for everything you do!

All the educators I've worked with have been kind, patient, and caring. They respond well and proactively to support children with varying needs. There are a variety of fun play activities set up inside and outside, for many different types of play and learning throughout the year.

Great childcare and kinder. Our daughter is very happy here and loves going, especially on bush kinder days. Staff are great and approachable if you have any questions Sara

A great, caring, friendly group of people.

7 years we have been using this gorgeous centre for our 2 children 💕 It's such a warm, accommodating, attentive, relaxed, happy place. A great team that have looked after our children so well, and nothing asked was ever too hard or an issue. Our daughter has attended 4yr old kinder this year and even though shorter with 2020 has absolutely loved it. I can't even think about us not being with you guys beyond next month 😢 Brooke and team there is not enough Thank You's for all your love, care and time to help our children grow but it will never be forgotten XXxx

Amazing and very caring team.

Our son has been going to DRCCC for 5 years. I have nothing but praise for every one who works at this centre. They are a fantastic team who genuinely care about your child. Our son has had the best time there, made some good friends (as have i) and thanks to the team and the kinder program at the centre he is more than ready to start school next year. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Just finishing our 3rd and final year here and through the toddler and especially the Kinder program our daughters specific learning needs & style were not only catered to, but she is very well ready for Prep next year thanks to the staff and programs provided at this centre... highly recommend if you want to leave your children with people who feel like family, provide the best care, support, communication and very effective educational programs with actual results 🙂

I cannot recomendable DRCC highly enough as a first time mum they helped me transition my son in it was harder for me than it was for him and sometimes I feel he loves his educators more than me! Everyone one is so welcoming and Brooke always does her best to accommodate our need and is always approachable and gets back to my emails without delay. I wouldn’t take my son anywhere else!
