We absolutely loved everything about this child care centre - our daughter attended for about a year before we had to relocate, and we cannot speak more highly of the skilled team, clean and stimulating environment, and genuine care shown to our family. Thank you to Joy and the team for your support.

My Son has been going here from 6 months old and he absolutely loves it. The staff are all so genuine and caring. Joy the owner is very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The educators send daily updates of him doing educational activities and play time. Delicious and nutritious home cooked food on site which he cannot get enough of. 😇 I Highly recommend Tuart Hill Child Care Centre!

Our daughter attended this centre back in 2013 we had arrived from overseas and our daughter was feeling insecure in a new country at the age of 4 - it wasn't that easy for us either as we had no-one to take care of our young one before and after school! This centre gave us all the support we needed. Our daughter was happy from day one! and that is what counts for us parents. It was her second home where she grew, learnt, played and had fun! She always felt welcomed! We have now (2016) departed Australia but want to thank Joy the owner. Joy is a lovely and caring person always there for the children
