September 10, 2024 at 9:58 pmMy daughter has been attending since she was one and a half years old and she has developed highly well. Daily updates are provided on her day. I would definitely suggest this setting to other parents Lovely childcare centre, attentive team, and lots of stimulation for kids.

September 11, 2024 at 12:37 pmMy baby loves going! Lots of stimulating activities are planned every day and resources and equipment are of high quality. Team go over and above what is expected to make my baby’s journey a great one. Food is freshly made which gives peace of mind. I would highly suggest this childcare centre. Lovely childcare centre with outstanding team.

September 27, 2024 at 9:00 amThe Christmas Concert was so lovely, especially after the pandemic, the team are considerate of my access needs by giving me prints out of the speech and songs/lyrics and providing many activities and a lovely outdoor garden space. They do lots of arts activities and my three year old daughter has become truly independent in going to the toilets, understanding hygiene and oral health, putting stuff away etc. The team made an effort to learn sign language as well as both my husband and I are deaf too. Lovely and welcoming childcare centre, highly spotless, my daughter consistently leaves the preschool cheerful and the kids are all cheerful too – rarely do I see a kid cry – compared to the other childcare centre where my other daughter went which was the opposite which makes a nice change.

September 27, 2024 at 9:53 pmThe level of professionalism and dedication displayed by the educators and caregivers is truly outstanding, and I have no doubt that they have had a
profound impact on my kid’s early development and growth. I have been constantly amazed by the creativity and variety of activities, both educational and enjoyable, that my kid has enjoyed each day. Moreover, the open updates between the team and parents is outstanding. The team gives regular updates on my kid’s development, consistently keeping me in the loop on activities, events, and any other important information. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the entire team at the childcare centre for the exceptional level of care and assistance they have provided to my kid.

November 13, 2024 at 1:29 pmSince my son started the childcare centre they have been truly attentive to my son’s development needs that I have raised concerns about, they do everything in their power to help me and my son. My son also has allergies and consistently have an alternative for him. They are genuine people and have the kindest of hearts and truly do take great care of my son which makes me truly cheerful. I don’t have a bad word to say about this childcare centre. I highly suggest it. This childcare centre is incredible, the team and management are just so lovely compassionate and attentive.

December 1, 2024 at 2:19 pmThe team are all so lovely and take care of her so well. She is well fed and is discovering so much there.
The room is lovely and has lots of toys and is kept spotless.
The Manager and Deputy Manager in the office are highly welcoming and consistently take the time to say hello and interact with the kiddies.
I’d highly suggest this childcare centre. My daughter started a month ago and she loves it there, she settled so well and just loves the 1 – 2 Room Leader and Practitioner.

December 8, 2024 at 2:08 pmThe team have all been truly supportive and attentive, and the facilities and rooms the kids learn in are large, inspiring, creative spaces. The garden is excellent. We’d truly suggest the preschool to all families. We adore Little Bear’s and our daughter is so cheerful there.

December 18, 2024 at 4:48 pmThey eat better than I do and Little Bears has now taken care of 4 of my wider families kids with another one signed up for 2023. Have 2 kids in Little Bears and they adore it, have never been upset about going to childcare centre and adore all their educators and friends!

December 27, 2024 at 10:46 amOur son started at eleven months and from day one the transition into childcare centre has been seamless. All of the team are absolutely incredible and our son adores them… he’s consistently smiling when we arrive in the morning. The rooms have a real home-from-home sense and our son is developing so well through all the activities that he gets involved with. It has been the greatest relief when returning to work to see just how cheerful he is and how well he is taken care of. We adore Little Bears. We are so delighted with our journey of Little Bears.

December 30, 2024 at 12:21 pmMy son has attended since he was 10 months old going through the various different rooms. He has been effectively trained in various aspects and we’re highly impressed with his development. He is a cheerful kid and loves attending this childcare centre. We’ve never had any issues with this childcare centre and would highly suggest it. This is a top-notch private childcare centre.

January 25, 2025 at 4:35 pmEveryone consistently gets a inviting welcome at the drop off and pick up and you get a feeling that the team genuinely care for their parents and kids. It is a pleasure visiting.
My son has been at Little Bears since September and he has developed so fast. He spotted one of the ladies from his room on the bus and his face lit up with big smiles. I think that says it all! Keep doing what your are doing Little Bears. Its working! The team at Little Bears are exceptional.

February 4, 2025 at 8:03 amHe’s only been going for a few months and has already made excellent leaps in his development, and become much more confident around other kids (and adults). We adore it here, all the team are absolutely fantastic and I felt like they got to know our son so quickly and everyone truly cares for every single little person in there.
Jamie Clarke
February 24, 2025 at 1:07 amThey loved their old setting so I was concerned about how they would settle. Within days they were skipping into their rooms. The team are so inviting and welcoming and clearly highly experienced. The activities are varied and they both come home full of stories from their day. Thank you Little Bear’s for looking after my little ones so well. My kids moved to Little Bear’s when we moved house recently.
Carter Steele
March 13, 2025 at 8:31 amHe is discovering so quickly from other babies and from his room leaders, an everyone truly cares about all the kids. They all know his name (even leaders from other rooms) and take the time to say hello and wave. There are lots of different activities during the week and the food is varied and different. It is highly reassuring that he is so cheerful and settled here. My son is so cheerful here.
Billie Quincy
March 31, 2025 at 9:04 pmMy son has excelled here since we pulled him out of another much closer childcare centre where we were not cheerful with the quality of the team or leadership. A well-run childcare centre with outstanding facilities and compassionate and dedicated team.
Quinn Wells
April 7, 2025 at 8:08 pmThere is a clear curriculum and the team implement this through the activities they do with the kids. They use a variety of toys to stimulate different skills and senses. Our son has learnt a lot already and thoroughly enjoys his time at childcare centre.
Being a medic, I was highly impressed with the childcare centre’s covid procedures during the pandemic. They stood out from other local nurseries. Not only did they have strict policies in place but they made sure they were implemented. Information was sent throughout and guidelines set out clearly for the parents to follow. They are highly cautious with illness in general and do their best to keep all the kids secure!
Thank you to all the team and the manager at little bears. We joined Little Bears four months ago after a bad journey at a local childcare centre.
Right from the beginning (the tour of the childcare centre) the team and manager were welcoming, informative and supportive.
Milan Flynn
April 8, 2025 at 3:53 pmShe has settled in highly well, the team are welcoming, highly accommodating and expert!
Thank you all for all your hard work! Our daughter has recently joined Little Bear’s and she is loving it.
Casey Sawyer
June 13, 2025 at 12:43 pmShe absolutely loves going to childcare centre and consistently comes home stimulated and joyful, full of laughter. The team are consistently so compassionate, loving and attentive. The food is exceptional. Our daughter comes home saying a new word or knowing the actions to a new childcare centre rhyme, almost every day. The activities are highly varied and they often playtime in the garden. The managers are consistently on hand to answer any queries and clearly have fantastic relationships with the kids. We couldn’t be happier with the care, assistance and education Little Bears has provided our family. We can’t suggest the team there higher. My eighteen-month-old daughter has been attending Little Bears since she was eight months old so has experienced both the baby room and one and a half years’ room.

July 9, 2025 at 12:14 pmMy kid was highly unsettled starting the childcare centre but the team made me and him sense at ease and made the whole process as easy and comfortable as possible. Overall outstanding. Excellent updates and an outstanding approach to your kid’s needs. A lovely childcare centre, which accommodates all your kid’s needs.
