September 7, 2024 at 8:16 pmOften finding a childcare centre can be venturing into unknown territory, however, we sense truly lucky to have found this excellent setting and a team of outstanding and dedicated professionals. The Benjamin Rabbit team are extremely expert, inviting and welcoming and provide a enjoyable and educational home away from home.

December 5, 2024 at 5:43 pmMy kid only attended for a short time, but it was clear to me from the start that she’d get along excellent there as she transitioned into primary school. She loved all the childcare centre team and was excited to go every day.
I sense very confident she will do well in reception now, and I’m very thankful to the preschool team for helping her. I am very sad that I didn’t send her to Benjamin Rabbit sooner.
I know my daughter will miss her “bunny school” very much, but she is looking forward to her next chapter at big school.
Thank you again to all the team. They are all so welcoming, supportive and welcoming. Benjamin Rabbit is such a fantastic childcare centre.

The management have consistently been on hand to sort out any issues quickly and I would suggest Benjamin Rabbit to my friends and family. My kid has attended Benjamin Rabbit Childcare centre since he was 9 months old.

February 16, 2025 at 4:06 amMy daughter is in the toddler room and she moved in there in February this year, in the last 8 weeks the team have ensured that they have established a routine with her and has had a bond with all team members and appears cheerful.

March 13, 2025 at 10:36 pmFrom the start, the team have been very welcoming and although my boys had only stayed with their Nan, I felt at ease leaving them with them. My boys have enjoyed their time at Benjamin Rabbit, consistently cheerful to go and often not wanting to leave at the end of the day. They were quite fussy eaters prior to starting childcare centre however with the fresh cooked meals provided for lunches and healthy range of snacks, they now eat a much wider variety and I am often told how they like the childcare centre food more than what I provide! I sense they have been well prepared for school, they are very much looking forward to going, although I’m sure they will miss the team at the childcare centre. Overall our journey at Benjamin Rabbit has been very positive and I have no regrets in my choice of childcare centre. My twin boys joined the childcare centre in January after turning three, they will be starting school this September, so our journey is only within the preschool setting.

March 29, 2025 at 6:29 amThey work together to achieve that and we have had a excellent journey there! My son had trouble settling in at first but by working with the team he felt at home in no time. He loved the soft block room and the garden and could go from one activity to another in no time. The childcare centre has a remarkable team who truly has the best interests of the kids at heart.

April 14, 2025 at 8:44 amWithin this time, I sense that his discovering capabilities have expanded, and his social awareness has improved greatly. The team are supportive of both kid and parent. A excellent deal of care and consideration is demonstrated by the whole team. My kid has been attending this childcare centre for almost a year.

May 8, 2025 at 5:48 amMy son has been going to Benjamin Rabbit childcare centre for two months and I couldn’t be happier and more importantly neither could he, he started at 7 months old and I was very worried as any mum would be leaving her son, but his key worker and the baby team are remarkable, he is now part of their family, his discovering has progressed and his key worker and the team consistently focus on the key things I want him to develop, he is consistently stimulated and looked after, we come up with ideas and plans to help him fulfil his potential, I’m so pleased I picked the Benjamin Rabbit team to be such a part of my son’s life.

May 22, 2025 at 7:01 amThe team helped her settle in well and their updates with me cannot be faulted. As a mother to a kid with food allergies, this was a big worry of mine but the childcare centre has been extremely accommodating to her dietary needs.
I have seen a massive improvement in my daughter’s social and intellectual development this year and am certain that Benjamin Rabbit has had a big impact on this.
I would highly suggest the childcare centre. My daughter has been attending this childcare centre for nearly a year now and she has settled in so well.

June 30, 2025 at 4:52 pmMy little boy has been attending for eight months & has learnt so much. I am consistently contacted straight away if he’s ill. Definitely cheerful with this setting, we had visited several and was a stressful time but as soon as we had our induction here we knew it was the best choice. Team are fantastic & very approachable.

July 2, 2025 at 2:44 pmThey take care in all the kids and make it enjoyable for all. The team interact with the kids in lots of ways consistently trying new activities.
The childcare centre are fabulous with kids with special needs, my son has behaviour issues and they have been excellent with him, they also got him assistance during potty training.
They also cater for different dietary needs, my son is dairy intolerant and he doesn’t miss out at all they make sure there is consistently something there for him.
I would highly suggest this settlement to all my friends and family. This childcare centre is remarkable, the team are of those that want to be there not of those that are only there to pay the bills.
