I feel my child is looked after well, more closer care. She has lots of knowledge, explains well with questions. Therefore this helps me well to plan of child development. I’d recommend here especially if you have first child.Posted on Google REVA BAJAJTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My 7 month old loves to be at this place. The environment is warm and welcoming. The teachers are very loving and proactive.Posted on Google Francesca LematuaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After many other daycare visits, my normally shy & reserved 2 year old took a liking to Waterview Early Learning Centre within the first 15 minutes of visiting. The environment is very friendly, calm & inviting. The educators are amazing & my 2 year old instantly connected with them within the first few days of starting. I’m so happy to come across this gem, I seriously recommend!Posted on Google Shanon McCullaghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a Speech & Language Therapist mum I was looking for somewhere with excellent teacher-child interactions and lots of them. I found it here, along with: daily demonstrations of respect and genuine care for others and the environment, qualified teachers and good teacher-child ratios, responsiveness to children's topic interests, nutritious food, and lots of outdoor space to roam and decompress when needed. If that's what you're looking for WELC is an excellent choice.Posted on Google Megha AgarwalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing childcare.. Staff is great. Highly recommended 👍Posted on Google Naomi SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great bunch of teachers - really friendly, caring and attentive. The outside playground is great and we love the huge tree which shades and shelters the children. It's so handy having the centre provide kai and we find it encourages the kids to try new foods that they may be picky about at home. My older children always love to come in when we are collecting my youngest - it's a fun environment with lots of crafts, outside play, cultural celebration and exploration.Posted on Google Rebecca JohanssonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our son started Waterview ELC when he was 8 months and stayed until he was 22 months (when we unfortunately moved overseas and he couldn’t continue). I cannot speak highly enough about the centre, owners and the amazing teachers, we felt so comfortable leaving our son there and he absolutely loved it. They are professional, kind, compassionate, educational and 100% caring for the wellness of your child. I would definitely recommend Waterview ELC to anyone looking for a fantastic child care centre.Posted on Google Candice STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

My daughter has been attending this centre for 9 to 10 months and she has learnt so much within this time i am happy with the quality of care they provide for her, culturally diverse, story park, meals included, massive outdoor play area and the teachers have great communication with parents and update us regularly.
