Our daughter has been with Mandana since she was 14 months old, and over the past two years she’s absolutely thrived. From day one, it was clear how much Mandana cares about the kids — she creates such a warm, loving and fun environment where they feel safe and happy. Our daughter calls her “Nana Mandana,” which says everything about how close they are and how at home she feels there.
The setup is fantastic — there’s a cosy toy room, a quiet nap space, and a great outdoor area with trikes, cubby houses and all kinds of fun activities. Our daughter especially looks forward to the regular outings — to MiniQ at Questacon, PlayUp at Old Parliament House, and local playgroups. She always comes home with stories about her day and proudly shows off her paintings or craft.
Mandana’s communication with families is also amazing. We get regular updates, photos and little stories that help us feel connected to our daughter’s day, even when we’re busy at work.
Drop-offs are a breeze — our daughter runs in happily every morning — and in the afternoons, it’s usually a challenge to get her to leave! Knowing she’s in such good hands has given us so much peace of mind.
We’re incredibly grateful for the love, care and consistency Mandana brings. She’s made such a big difference in our daughter’s early years, and we would happily recommend her to our friends and family.

My daughter spent two amazing years with Mandana since the age of 17 months. She was constantly sick in a big childcare centre, but the situation changed once we moved her to Anahita Family Day Care. My friend recommended a lovely Mandana to me because she aslo had two children in her care just before us. It is a very clean house, with a lot of toys, entertainment and excursions every week. Very supportive and flexible approach with lots of love and smile. My daughter is very excited to go to "Nana Mandana" every morning. My daughter spent 2 years in a full care, 5 days per week, and I have absolutely zero issues or complaints, everything is at a high standard. I admire how Mandana cares about my child and we love our "nana Mandana" a lot. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Our son has thrived during his time (aged 15 months to 3.5 years) in this lovely family daycare run by the ever-energetic Mandana. It is a physically beautiful environment with both indoor and outdoor play areas; absolutely spic and span; and a nurturing caring atmosphere. We have been so happy to trust our son in Mandana's care and he definitely looks forward to his time there. We have no hesitation in recommending Anahita Family Daycare.
