“We were surprised to see that all the staff know our kids, even the lovely chef knew their names!”
We couldn’t be happier with this beautiful little daycare centre. One of the things that really makes it special is how small and personal it feels. We were surprised to see that all the staff know our kids, even the lovely chef knew their names! It makes the centre feel like such a warm, family-like environment where the I know my kids feel safe, recognised and genuinely cared for.
The staff are absolutely incredible. They are kind, patient, passionate and always go above and beyond for the kids. Something we love seeing are the setups for the children to play with. They are always beautiful, inviting and clearly designed with the children’s interests in mind. I feel at ease knowing that my kids feel so safe and comfortable around all of the staff. If their teachers are not there in the morning, they are usually pretty happy to go to any of the staff because of the special bond each of them create with the kids.
The managers are also fantastic, always so helpful and genuinely happy to see us and our kids every day. Along with being helpful with any questions we have or concerns we’ve raised, they always are happy to help us out in the morning or afternoon. Even just to help us take the kids out to the playground or if they see we’ve had a tough morning they call us and check in later in the day. You can tell they really care about the families in the centre.
We feel so lucky to be part of such a nurturing, supportive and positive community at Una and we highly recommend to any family looking for a centre where children are truly known, valued and supported by the whole centre.
“A special mention to Tash, the kindy teacher, who is one of the kindest and most nurturing educators I’ve come across.”
We’ve had such a positive experience with Una from day one. For a brand new centre, the quality of what they’ve created is incredible.
The facilities are modern and thoughtfully designed, with outdoor areas that are noticeably bigger than most centres. The kids love the real grass, not just artificial turf, and the chickens, with more animals to come. It creates such a natural and engaging environment.
A standout is the in-house cook and large kitchen preparing fresh meals daily. It’s reassuring knowing the kids are getting nutritious, freshly made food.
Most importantly, the care has been exceptional. My kids have been there since opening and are genuinely loved and supported.
A special mention to Tash, the kindy teacher, who is one of the kindest and most nurturing educators I’ve come across. I feel so grateful my daughter gets to learn from her.
Una has built a strong team from the start. They are truly child focused and it shows in everything they do. Highly recommend.
“My son has been attending this daycare for the past 10 months, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience.”
My son has been attending this daycare for the past 10 months, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience. He absolutely loves coming here and has formed such beautiful bonds with all of his educators throughout the service.
The educators are truly amazing. They go above and beyond to make sure the children feel safe, loved, supported and included. It’s so reassuring as a parent to know that my son is cared for by people who genuinely know and care about him.
The management team are also wonderful and are always welcoming, supportive and approachable. You can really see how much effort everyone puts into creating a positive and nurturing environment for the children.
We are so grateful to have found such an amazing centre and couldn’t recommend the team highly enough! ❤️
“The educators treat my little one in such a caring, calm and nurturing way, we always feel so comfortable dropping him off- knowing he is having fun and learning so much.”
The best daycare around! My son has been attending Una for just over a year now and it has been the best experience. I personally found the whole concept of putting my baby into daycare so hard. I didn't want to be away from him and I was really upset about having to go back to work and have "strangers" raise him instead of me.
I went to several daycares and just didn't get a good vibe until I went to Una after hearing amazing reviews off a local facebook group and old work colleagues.
The educators treat my little one in such a caring, calm and nurturing way, we always feel so comfortable dropping him off- knowing he is having fun and learning so much. I love how much effort they put into all the activities but mostly how attentive and accommodating they are to each childs needs. Whether it's adjusting sleep, changing bottle requirements or addressing developmental behaviours- they always do their best to work with what we are trying to achieve.
As a family with no family support, having such a caring, reliable and passionate daycare centre has given us the amazing "village" that everyone talks about needing when raising a family.
Thank you to the admin team and all the amazing educators for creating such a wonderful environment for our babies – you are making such an impact and we are so grateful!
“The staff are warm, caring, and very attentive, making the transition easy for both parents and child.”
We’ve sent our child to UNA Childcare Centre for two days and have already had a great experience. The staff are warm, caring, and very attentive, making the transition easy for both parents and child. Jordanna(Centre Manager) from the start with the enrolling process till date with all invoices and bookings has been responding promptly and very well. The carers hannah, riddle and all are very supportive in getting our Child settle in easily there. The centre is clean, well‑organised, and provides a nurturing environment. Our child came home happy and settled each day, and we feel confident we’ve made the right choice.
“We have been at Una since January 2022 with our daughter (who has now gone to school) and our son started there this year.”
We have been at Una since January 2022 with our daughter (who has now gone to school) and our son started there this year. We absolutely love the centre and the wonderful staff who work there. Mel and her team go above and beyond to provide exceptional care for our little one and offer so many extra activities and learning opportunities focused on their areas of interest. There is always something new and fun for them to explore and the playground and rooms have undergone a recent refurb and look great. Communication is always prompt and you are really made to feel at home and comfortable leaving your child there. We can’t thank them enough for all that they have done for our family and for helping our little ones thrive.
“We've been with this child care centre since 2022 and love the staff and environment there.”
We've been with this child care centre since 2022 and love the staff and environment there. The staff are lovely, friendly, take great care in planning innovative activities and sending us updates daily, along with individual stories of his progress in various areas, and even photos and updates of how he's settled in when he's returned after a holiday and has a tough time saying goodbye to us. The administrative staff are very friendly and supportive – assisting when we need change of days, organising the best activities for our little ones, greeting us with a smile and friendly chat. All in all, a very wholesome family environment and a supportive community for all!
“Its safety standards are incredible and I feel 100% confident leaving my kids for the day.”
I LOVE this centre. Its safety standards are incredible and I feel 100% confident leaving my kids for the day. Staff turnover is very very low compared to surrounding centres and they would rather combine rooms than hire casuals from an agency for the day if short staffed which is so much safer in my opinion.
Lovely educators, top teams leaders and a great director which is probably why this centre is so successful and sought after by families in the area.
