Little Stars has been such an incredible place for my daughter. I would highly recommend. They have excellent communication, particularly around informing on incidents. The educators have a genuine care for the kids. My daughter has loved going, she never cries going in and openly extends her arms to go to them every day. They always have fun activities planned and support their growth and next steps. They have the feel of a caring family owned establishment compared to a more clinical feel. In terms of educators, Jemma, Pretty, Bianca and Marianna have been particularly amazing to my daughter and we can’t be more appreciative.

The educators and staff at Little stars have been warm and welcoming from day one. I toured a few child care centres before coming here and I immediately felt the difference. I felt reassured leaving my son in the care of the wonderful staff in the wombat room. Bianca’s caring nature is amazing, she is a true gem and cares so much for all the children. My son has an amazing time each week and I’m amazed at all the activities he does each time.
