My Children have settled in so beautifully at Papilio Turner. As a first time mum putting children into care (which can be such a daunting experience) the Centre Manager Nicole is a wonderful director, I felt really supported, understood

Report

The centre and the staff here are really wonderful. Our kid is having the best time - the educators in the baby room and then the toddler rooms have been attentive and caring, and we genuinely feel that they care about our son's growth and development. Jaspreet was absolutely invaluable in helping him (and us) settle into the whole childcare experience, and we're very grateful for how engaged and communicative she was the entire time our son was in the baby room. Any kid would be lucky to have someone as kind, skilled, and dedicated as Jaspreet looking after them. Anusha and Karma in the toddler room are also wonderful. Our son loves coming to daycare and loves telling us about all the things he does there, and we can see how much he's learning each day and each week. The staff are kind and respectful, the kids are clearly cared for and looked after, and everyone has been wonderful to deal with. The centre manager, Nicole, is extremely responsive to any emails or phone calls. She knows the children by name, and it's obvious that she cares about the centre, the staff, and the kids. I'm writing this in the midst of the scandals and investigations into early childhood education centres, and it would be hard for any parent not to worry about the risks of sending their kid to daycare. However, the environment created by Nicole and the rest of the staff goes a long, long way to putting us at ease. Our son is thriving, we are happy with the quality of care he's receiving, and I would definitely recommend Papilio Turner to other parents.

Our little girl has been attending Sage for almost two years now and I and my little one have been very happy. All staff members are lovely and extremely caring, it’s so nice to see the carers act lovingly towards our child. In the times

It’s been just one week at the Child Care, and already I feel so relieved and grateful. The staff genuinely care about the children and take such good care of them. What stands out the most is how well they listen — they really try to
