September 25, 2024 at 3:21 pmAll of the team are lovely, inviting and compassionate and the manager is especially fantastic. My son adores going to childcare centre and consistently comes back with a smile on his face and stories to tell about his day. Great Expectations is an exceptional childcare provider, I could not ask for a more accomodating and welcoming service.

October 3, 2024 at 11:27 amThe childcare centre go above and beyond for both my kids and I know they will for my third kid who has just been born when she starts. The team consistently make sure my girls are cared for and have helped a lot in regards to my oldest daughter being delayed in speech, helping us go down the right routes to improve this and find out if there are any underlying issues. For this I am grateful. They also take the parents’ emotions into consideration, especially the manager, she has helped me drastically through the past year and I couldn’t thank her enough for everything she has done for me and my family. I would highly suggest this childcare centre to anyone interested in starting their kids as they are very accommodating to your needs and just all-round incredible. My two daughters go to this childcare centre and have been going for over a year since I started university.

Its been a tough year for everyone but the fact that the team are consistently trying to go one step further to help has really made it a little less chaotic. Couldn’t ask for a better group of people to assistance my little boy in the times I can’t be with him due to work.

November 18, 2024 at 9:46 amWe started coming to excellent expectations in September of 2019 and instantly felt like part of the wider family. My kid looks forward to going to childcare centre every day and I have to drag him out on a night! Every single team member made us sense like family and I have every self‑assurance in the way they nurture and protect my kid. He’s learnt so much here from childcare centre rhymes, sign language and it slows him to have social interactions with kids his age, younger and older. I dread the day I have to take him out! Being a first time mum and going into university with no local assistance finding a childcare centre that both my kid and myself felt comfortable in was essential.

December 30, 2024 at 1:12 pmThe team at the childcare centre were incredible with us both, I could ring 100 times a day and they would sound cheerful to hear my voice every phone call as if it was the first time I rang. My son runs in on a morning half the time and doesn’t even say goodbye, the team are incredible with him and he is now 2 and a half. I’m looking forward to sending my new baby when the time is right for me because I know he will adore it as much as his big brother. My son has been going to this childcare centre since he was 9 months, he was my 1st baby and I struggled so much leaving him when I went back to work.

January 11, 2025 at 10:29 amMy daughter is settling in well and her key worker does everything she can to help settle my daughter and to help her develop.
The rooms are all a really great size too and they have great toys to playtime with.
I would highly suggest this childcare centre as I know what to look for in a childcare centre as I am also a childcare centre nurse and I am very fussy about where my kids go. All of the team are very welcoming and the manager and deputy manager will do anything for you if it’s possible for them to do so.

February 24, 2025 at 8:18 amStaff have been exceptional, consistently so loving, attentive and excellent. I work full time so I need to know the kids are okay and the childcare centre consistently gave me peace of mind. My kids still attend in the holidays too, they adore it. Staff are so attentive and genuinely want kids to develop and excel. Would highly suggest to all. Excellent all round All my three kids have attended since being 6 months old with my youngest (almost three) still there.

March 6, 2025 at 12:52 amI am extremely excellent full for all the help and assistance they have given my son and me over the time he has been there, whilst trying to get my son the extra help he needs to start school in the areas where he struggles and needs extra assistance. I will definetly be signing my youngest up to Great Expectations when he’s a little bit older. Great Expectations is an absolutely exceptional childcare centre, all the team are incredible with the kids.

March 7, 2025 at 5:50 pmI was also in attendance as many mums and dads were offered to delight in the day with their kid. The team did such an incredible job with organizational skills of so many small kids and the day was incredible for parents and kids, can’t wait for the next trip. After a trip to the farm, my little girl didn’t stop talking about her day.

April 6, 2025 at 9:08 pmThe management at Great Expectation has come a long way in the last couple of years and it’s made a huge difference now that the new manager is in charge. All team are experienced, compassionate and my son adores all team.
Recently they visited a farm where parents were invited to spend some quality family time, which was very compassionate to offer. My son really enjoyed himself and didn’t stop talking about how much enjoyable he had.
Thank you Great Expectation Team – looking forward to some more trips. All team are incredible with all kids and parents.

May 1, 2025 at 10:55 pmI cannot express enough how much they all enjoyed going into childcare centre every day. It is an incredible place and all the team are so welcoming. My youngest has been going for the last 2 years and she loves every single team member there. She runs in every day and is consistently very reluctant to leave when we collect her. You couldn’t ask for a better place than this for your kids. All 3 of my kids have attended/are attending this childcare centre.

May 14, 2025 at 3:25 pmMy daughter has been going for the past 3 years and has loved it. Now ready for the next step and starting school which she is so excited for. I have enjoyed reading what she has been up to in her discovering journals and encouraging her in her development along the way. Thank you so much for everything you have done. Excellent childcare centre and I highly suggest.

June 22, 2025 at 12:51 amI was consistently wary to send her but the team have been incredible with her and she settled in much better than I thought. She’s consistently excited to go and consistently smiley when she goes and I pick her up. The team are incredible with her. She absolutely loves it here. My little girl has been coming to Great Expectations since she was nine months old.
