I have had 8 years with Explore and Develop. The educators and management are exceptional. Their genuine care and support of the children (and parents) is amazing. They put a lot of effort into to making the days interesting, to seek input on what the children like to do and eat, as well as provide support and guidance to families, and ongoing development of the team. It’s a really special place.

We had a great experience with EAD Leichhardt. The space is amazing- open and light with lots to learn and play with, and the educators are friendly, knowledgeable and caring. We couldn’t recommend EAD Leichhardt more highly to young families looking for care!

A beautiful early education centre, particularly the incredible educators and the amount of thought and care put into everything they do. Belinda and Alison thank you for having our family, we’ve loved watching our little ones thrive and the friendships they have developed.

An exceptional centre, with the best educators in Sydney. My daughter absolutely loved going to daycare everyday for the 3 years she attended. I couldn't recommend this place more highly.

What a fantastic centre. The facilities are exceptional. We especially love the outdoor spaces and learning opportunities. The curriculum is really impressive and we just adore the teachers. Our little girl thrived here.

Our kids have gone to Explore & Develop for the last 7 years. I wouldn’t move out of the area until they finish because I don’t think I’d find another provider that I trusted as much as these guys. Fantastic service, the kids love going and I have confidence they are well cared for while they are there.

Under Belinda and Alison's leadership, the calibre of educators at E&D is exceptional. Having experienced several daycare centres previously, we can confidently say that their educational program and operational excellence are unmatched. The thought leadership in education is evident in their planning and implementation of daily activities that encourage play-based learning. It gives us peace of mind knowing our boys are in such capable hands - their enthusiasm to attend daycare each morning speaks volumes about the nurturing environment at E&D. Kim & Del

E&D centre directors Belinda and Alison have hearts of GOLD. That is surely why they have attracted a talented and dedicated team of long-standing staff. This is a warm and friendly environment where the Educators greet parents on a first name basis and where they are never too busy for a chat. My 4yo and 9mo are always happy to attend and they come home with a smile. One of the best choices I've made as a parent is to enrol my kids here. The waitlist was long but worth the wait because this is truly an excellent day care facility that goes above and beyond!

Love the experiences and care my daughter benefits from here

Highly recommend!! I can't say enough wonderful things about EAD Leichhardt. My son has truly gone from strength to strength here both socially and academically thanks to the nurturing environment and engaging activities. The educators are not only professional but also deeply invested in each child's growth and well-being. We get daily updates and photos, and it's clear how much fun my son is having with his friends and learning new skills. I have complete peace of mind knowing my child is in capable hands. We will be very sad leaving at the end of this year as we start school!
