Ash, Jess & Jordan run a great centre. Jess C (Gumnuts), Erin (Pobbles) Esha & Jazz (Wattles) have been such warm, gentle educators for us, helping us go with the flow of early childhood; we have no doubts about keeping our son here for kindergarten.
We’ve made some lifelong friends thanks to this brilliant daycare community.
The leadership team is great at communicating events and changes even if staff are away on leave .
I am so happy with my choice to send my little dude Explorers Essendon.
