With both parents working full-time, daycare sadly gets to spend more waking hours with our kids than we do. That makes us incredibly grateful that those hours have been spent at GBPK.<br><br>We've been here for two and a half years (and will be for another two plus years), from the Koala Room through to Cockatoos, and the small class sizes, hands-on director and genuinely caring staff have made daycare a second home for our family. I have always felt I can talk freely with the educators and have done so when it comes to individual care for my kids as well as staffing arrangements.<br><br>What really sets GBPK apart is how they genuinely care. When our daughter was struggling after becoming a big sister, they went out of their way to make her feel special with extra one-on-one time. They're also the kind of centre that will let you borrow a daycare toy for the night to avoid a car park meltdown—it's the little things that show how much they understand children.<br><br>The only downside for us is the 8am–5:30pm hours, which can be tricky with full-time office jobs. Other than that, we truly can't recommend GBPK highly enough.

Our little one started at GBPK when he was just 1 year old. Before that, he attended another childcare centre for only two months, but unfortunately it was a very difficult experience for our whole family. We decided to withdraw him, and we were so lucky to be offered a place at GBPK.<br><br>Since joining GBPK, he has become so much happier, more confident, and comfortable. It has been such a joy to watch him grow, laugh, and show his cheeky personality with all the wonderful educators.<br><br>GBPK truly feels like a second family to us. We are incredibly grateful for the love, patience, care, and dedication that every educator has shown our little one. Thank you for creating such a warm and nurturing environment. ❤️

A beautiful daycare centre that feels like family. The children are well cared for and the educators are kind and friendly.

We couldn’t be happier with this daycare! Our daughter absolutely loves her time there, and it’s easy to see why. The educators are so kind, patient, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They create such a nurturing environment, and the whole team works seamlessly together to make the centre feel welcoming and safe. A big highlight for us has been how clean and well-kept the centre is. Of course, there are the usual runny noses that come with daycare, but we’ve been pleasantly surprised at how healthy our little one has stayed since starting earlier this year. The on-site cooking is another huge plus – it’s reassuring knowing she’s offered freshly prepared, nutritious meals every day. When she first started, we were using cloth nappies (and she was the only one), and the staff were so accommodating and supportive of that choice. That really showed us how thoughtful and flexible they are in respecting each family’s needs. We are so grateful to have found this centre and can’t recommend it highly enough. It truly feels like a second home for our daughter!

We moved our son to GBPK after a poor experience with another provider. The difference has been night and day. Even within the first week, our son was taking proper naps, eating well and we could tell how happy he was from all the pictures we saw on the app (which actually works! IYKYK!) After many weeks of stress and frustration, GBPK was and continues to be a godsend to us. The genuine care and effort is so appreciated. And we love how each week there is a theme and even on occasion specials guests where the kids can learn about occupations such as doctors or firemen. Thank you Grace, Alexandra and the whole GBPK team. The work you do is exceptional. Cannot recommend more highly!

A beautiful daycare centre with great educators. The team at Gymea Bay Pre Kindy are amazing, hands-on, fun, caring, and reassuring. I felt they offered genuine & heartfelt care. As a first-time mum, I was so so nervous about putting my daughter into daycare. She started at 18 months, and getting into this centre truly felt like the best and luckiest decision we could have made. The care she received was truly special, and she was surrounded by a lovely group of kids in such a warm, nurturing environment. I’m so grateful for everything they’ve done for her (and me!). Highly recommend to any parent—especially if you’re feeling nervous like I was.

Our son has been attending this preschool since opening and can’t speak highly enough of the staff and facilities.

My son has been attending this daycare since it opened and I couldn't be happier. The staff are so nurturing and loving to my child & all the children in the centre. The staff are incredibly present and attentive to your childs needs. The daily activities that the children do are so beneficial to their development and so well thought out by the staff. The centre itself is always immaculately clean with the highest standards of furnishings and activities for the children. The outdoor playground is also one of the best i have seen. My son is incredibly happy at this centre, and it makes a world of difference having a daycare they like attending. I truly feel like we struck gold with this centre and I would highly recommend this centre to anyone that considers sending their child here.

My daughter attends this centre and she absolutely loves it! She loves the educators and all her friends there. Im so lucky she is looked after so well, it gives me the confidence and peace of mind to go to work and know shes being taken care of.
