I highly recommend this centre. Miss Harriet is amazing and the staff so kind. We miss Miss Imogen the centre management but look forward to her routine. I looked at 6 centres in clayfield and found this one to be much better than the others in Clayfield

Clayfield Early Learning has been an absolute dream for our family. Imogen has always been so kind and supportive to us and our little Savvy, helping with anything we needed. The entire team has been incredibly friendly and loving with Savannah, and they’ve taught her so much. We are truly grateful for everything. It’s with a heavy heart that we say goodbye due to our relocation. We will dearly miss this beautiful centre, and so will Savannah. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. ❤️🥰🥹

What a wonderful centre and community to be a part of. The staff are consistent, caring and approachable - all questions whether by phone or email are answered promptly. We’ve watched our son bloom from nursery to toddler rooms, the educators form genuine relationships with the kids and because of that he’s a confident and inquisitive chatter box. Drops offs are easy and pick ups are hard because he never wants to leave his friends! I can unequivocally say this centre and his educators are a huge contributor to my son’s development and happy disposition.

My son hasn't had an easy transition into day care and can get quite upset on drop off. The staff are so supportive and kind and always manage to cheer him up when I leave. All the staff are lovely but special mention to Miss Harriet for always looking after my little one and distressing him and to Miss Imogen who does all the above PLUSA always accommodates my ever changing schedule. It's a nice little daycare and you can tell they really do care. Thank you

Did a walk through and felt very welcomed and comfortable, the kids look happy and content in their space which is what a parent would want for their child, looking forward to having my child enrolled at the centre.

We have been so impressed by Clayfield Early Learning Centre, we moved to Brisbane a couple of months ago and needed to find care for my 9 month old little girl and 4 year old son. I went to 6 different centres, when I walked into Clayfield Early Learning and met with Imogene I just knew it was the one. The Centre is always clean and tidy with new pictures up on the walls of fun activities the children have done.The staff are friendly and caring. Imogene the centre manager has gone above and beyond to help my 4 year old settle in (who was so sad to leave his friends in Sydney). I would highly recommend it.

I’m proud to say Clayfield ELC has cared for both my children from nursery through to Kindy. This daycare excels in fostering inclusivity, creating a caring community, and cultivating a second family vibe. The environment is both physically and psychologically safe, thanks to dedicated educators and an active centre director with ample insights and experiences. Overall, it's a nurturing space that prioritises the wellbeing and development of every child. It's bittersweet to bid farewell, but I take pride in the remarkable growth and development I've witnessed in my kids during their time in Clayfield ELC.

Imogen and her team are so wonderful with the children. Imogen really puts you at ease and I know that my 5 year old is in a fantastic and safe place. That you Imogen. Makes such a difference !! This centre is worth every cent!

Encountered issues with previous & current managers. Hoped for positive change with KAL management but faced condescending, dismissive, patronising behaviour & lack of acknowledgment & accountability. Annette, Debbie & Imogen need training on handling complaints/concerns/enquires. There are good times but negatives outweigh them & caused much distress & extreme frustration. Upon leaving centre I requested folders (education journals) asked manager if more time was needed to arrange them but told no & received nothing to show for 1 child education for last 1-2yrs bringing me to tears, whereas my other child had a lovely art folder, no journal. Manager could have posted them. SOME Issues over 4yrs include - Inconsistencies in equality, another parent brings a puppy to the centre as it is up to managers discretion, while denying this to us because of WHS, this was clear favouritism & double standards in decision-making. Hard to believe she was unaware of the puppy due to her known love of dogs. My child endured a traumatic incident, he was bitten leaving visible mark for months. Concerns not adequately addressed & subsequent incidents involving him led to ostracisation, shaming & pinching by a teacher/s. This initiated behaviour issues & negative perception among peers. After expressing concerns for speech & behaviour no investigation or support offered till too late. He endured blame for incidents he wasn't involved in triggering social, emotional challenges for us both weekly. This extended to recent theft of his belongings & FALSE accusations such as stealing a phone. Seeing children’s behaviours at pickup & drop off I believe some of these behaviours were learned from peers but made worse by some caregivers not addressing this appropriately. Staff ignore problems. Under Imogen supervision Breastmilk thrown out WITHOUT consent OR communicated. Also breastmilk not mixed together leaving hindmilk residue behind. I swapped to formula. It was stressful & impacted my breastfeeding journey. Routines for both not followed, including my child being put to bed 40min early. My child was distressed. Requested nappy cream every change (I supplied) this did not occur. My child’s rash so bad it was bleeding. Happened a few times. KAL changed to a poor quality nappy & wipes causing more rashes. Centre missed many social events. When I raised this, manager was rude. An event calendar was made but some events were missed & some dates are on Saturday? KAL Discontinued onsite made meals & stopped breakfast. Opening at 6am & the removal of toast demonstrates lack of basic kids needs & parental convenience. Many centres provide this, especially those who open at 6am. Reasons for change-budget, manager personally covering cost, but with company card thats questionable. Catered meals are good but offer poor variety & portion size in comparison. I enquired about catering being more expensive- no response leading me to believe it is. It’s money that could be used on upgrades/ staff/ resources. I was told to use Xap for communication, when I did I filled a medical form, I received a call, which I missed by seconds. Manager contacted 2nd guardian & demanded they come to the centre immediately to rewrite form. Poor judgment from manager when the issue stems from lack of awareness & training. Manager showed a lack of understanding & failed to acknowledge accountability for incident. KAL reducing timeframe for morning setup has ultimately lead to the failure of their own staff being ready in the morning. My children are at a new centre where they have extra staff on, there is always someone present on arrival with breakfast, they did a parent information night explaining learning outcomes they had planned & I received learning journals. Adjustments by KAL have resulted in departure of team members due to changes. KAL alterations also contributed significantly to departure of parents. This directly correlates with KAL. Despite consistently poor experiences with all management, the dismissiveness displayed by KAL management is concerning.

Absolutely love this centre. My daughter who is now 5 has been attending since she was only 11 months old and we wouldn’t go anywhere else! Imogen the centre director is absolutely amazing, she goes above and beyond for the children and families. All staff are friendly, helpful and caring. I would highly recommend this centre to everyone. There are so many fun things planned for the kids throughout each year, my daughter will tell everyone about the time she got to pat a koala at daycare! Your babies will be in the safest of hands here and have the best time!
