Edit: We at the end of every school term she is begging and asking when she can come to deception bay north and will name educators by name excited to see them, we love our school holidays 🙂
The educators are caring, patient, and clearly know how to bring the best out of each child. My kids come home every day telling me it was “the best day ever.” In fact, just today my 3-year-old walked out beaming and said, “I love school.” That’s all the reassurance I need to know we’ve found the right place.
I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a safe, supportive, and genuinely positive environment for their children.
Have been here since opening week.
I have a 2yr old & 4yr old who both love going, tears are rare at dropoff and 90% of the time they just wander on into their rooms so excited to start their day, they have amazing bonds with their educators and it proves how much time the educators put into creating that connection with your them. The effort that is put in to create engaging activities to help them learn and explore is exceptional, the staff are friendly and welcoming and the lovely ladies at the desk are so helpful with anything needed. I have noticed alot of postive changes with the new Director and I cannot fault this centre. My children are happy and safe and I thank all the amazing educators for that peace of mind ❤️

At Little Scholars, we understand how important it is for you to follow the progress of your child’s development.
This is why we have made it as easy as possible for parents to stay up-to-date. Throughout the year, your child’s portfolio will be updated daily, and contain journals, photographs, project work and learning stories. You can view your child’s portfolio anytime you visit your child’s studio.
In addition to the portfolio, parents have access to our very own app. Our parent app provides you with photographs and a summary of your child’s week so you can see what your child is learning. You can login any time throughout the day to see all the fun your child is enjoying. So you know you’re in safe hands when you enrol your child at our childcare centre!
