What Parents Say

  • Look no further. A well managed centre with experienced and professional staff that we highly trust. My daughter happily attends and enjoys the engaging environment, where many new learning opportunities are provided for her to grow and learn. We look forward to seeing daily updates of her activities on the app. All staff (including those not in her room) know my daughter. She is nurtured and cared for. The centre is always kept tidy and clearly has high standards in cleanliness.

  • Having had a bad experience at another centre, I was a bit skeptical about putting my son in daycare at all. However, I couldn’t be more happier with Smarties. The staff really care and make an effort. They are always doing something with the kids which I love. The director also knows each kid in there, and is there daily to meet and greet you and let you know how your kids day was. If there is something she can’t answer she will take you straight to someone who can and ask the question for you. Couldn’t be happier!
