My baby was just 8 months when he started his care at OAC (Explorer room) like any mother, I was so worried, as he was so small and I had never let him out of my sight before. The thought of someone else taking care of him scared me.But my fears were quickly allayed by the amazing educators at OAC. They are so passionate about what they do and they are incredibly welcoming and responsive to feedback.I especially want to thank Kanwaljith, Darshna, Pauline, Indarjith, and the rest of the team for being so patient, sweet, and caring towards my baby boy.I am so grateful to OAC for providing such a safe and nurturing environment for my son. I know he is in good hands and I can't recommend them highly enough.Thank you!

My son goes to OAC and is in the kindergarten Voyagers room. It was really hard for us to settle him as he had never been to a proper childcare setting but the staff and teachers in his room were so warm and welcoming and patient with him that he finally was settled and loves going there now. The teachers Toni, Manraj, Gracie and Maria are all so lovely and take so much genuine care in the kids development. I would highly recommend this centre if you want to feel like your child is at home 😀

As parents we were looking for a supportive and innovative place to start our daughter's kindergarten, it was really hard to decide initially, but after visiting and meeting the kindergarten team at OAC things were bit easier and they became very exiting and joyful for our daughter very quickly after she started going.Initially we started only with2 days and then we have to add more days ever week as she was happy and excited to go to Kindergarten in same way as she was coming home. As her days are planned and she really enjoying her daily activities. Special thanks to all the team (Tony,Manraj,Maria&Gracy) for helping us in shaping her early days before school.

My son has been attending OAC Tarneit since he was 11months, and he is now almost 5yrs. It went as Tarneit Early learning then , but the staff have remained largely unchanged. This in itself reflects the devotion they have towards the centre and kids.All the educators in the various rooms work well together and the care is handed over seamlessly.Parents' concerns are genuinely looked into and resolved.No complaints about the food, educational and recreational activities either.Thank you to Michelle, Claire from the hands-on management team and wonderful educators Maria, Tony, Gracie, Manraj, Aaron, Sukhwinder, Christie, Pooja, Pauline, Keisha, Shruthi just to name a few, for taking care of our little treasures.

My daughter loves OAC Tarneit. The educators in the Navigators room (Pooja and her team), are fantastic and really care about her needs. She has been since she was 9 months old and I needed to return to work and they made it so easy. All the staff are wonderful but she has a special bond with Pooja, Kanwaljit, Darshana, Jinky and Richa in particular. The food offered is great quality and the communication from the centre is first rate.Would highly recommend this centre any day.

Especially the kindergarten section at this centre, I heartily suggest it. My son attends the kindergarten room, where he is learning a lot. I loved the programme planning of the room, and I especially appreciated how they planned excursion every fortnight. In along with teaching, they are also extremely helpful and lovely, and my kid frequently mentions all of the kindergarten room's teachers.

My son started at OAC Tarneit full time back in 2019 when he was 11 months old. He has made so many friends and genuine connections with all the educators he has spent time with over the years. The centre has an indoor/outdoor approach which my son loves, as he can choose to spend his day playing inside or outside as he pleases. They have a weekly playground to plate class and my son is always excited to come home and tell me what new things he has learnt in garden class.My son is participating in the Kinder Program at the centre this year and I was concerned he might miss out on something not attending a council run kinder, but to my surprise they follow the same program as the council run centres and have a strong focus on school readiness.A special thanks to Tony, Maria, Gracy, Aaron & Manraj for making his final year at the centre so enjoyable.

I have my little one going into this childcare since she was 9 months old, the Explorer Team is understanding, helpful and caring, my daughter enjoys being here, they make sure babies are well fed and cleaned time to time, and any feedback given to them is taken positively. Very warm and friendly team that you can rely on for your little ones. They like to take an extra step to care for your babies so that the difficult transition for you and your baby gets smoother in whatever possible way. Thanks Team Explorer.

My son started OAC in September 2022. We can confidently say this has changed our life.. OAC has listened to us, cared for our son and worked with us for his development. It’s been such an enriching experience for us to watch our son develop such profound social skills. It’s a testament to the hard work and sincerity of the educators.They have been so understanding and caring and we can’t recommend them enough. All the educators obviously have such a genuine love for what they do and it comes through in every part of this centre. We are so happy we found them and can’t thank them enough.Thank you so much Tony, Maria, Manraj and for all your efforts and care for Kaveer.

My youngest son started care in the Explorers room in February this year and as any parent I was worried as he was only 8 months old. The care and support from all the staff at the centre has been outstanding from the first day. I had no need to be worried about him being there as I know those educators care about my son almost as much as I do. As an educator myself I know how long the days are for the workers but I'm greeted each evening with the same smiling, friendly faces that I handed my son to 8 hours earlier. A special thank you to Kanwaljit, Pauline and Darshana for taking such great care of my baby.Highly recommend 👌

OAC Tarniet is an amazing place for your child to learn, grow and explore. My child attends the Creators room. They give him lots of love and opportunities to try many activities each day as well as teaching him the responsibility of being a good friend and teammate. What I love most is they give everyone a chance to participate and learn about multicultural appreciation events and traditions. Finally, they provide amazing nutritious food for which they share on their platform. Highly recommend.

I am sending my kid here for almost an year now. To be honest, I couldn't have asked for anything better. I need to call out names of educators to be specific and to ensure this is not a fake review. All the educators in Innovators room are excellent. Jinky, Ashwini, Zaib and others have been very kind and professional in the way they nurture the growth of each and every kid. My kid was fussy eater , now she decently feeds by herself . There was speech delay but it is promising now because she has picked up lot of words and is socialising so well. Every day in the morning there is something creative activities scheduled for the kids and all directly related to growth of the kids. The food follows quality standards that is specifically for kids of that age group. It is very easy for me to book a add on day. Billing is transparent and front office admin and staff are so very friendly. Almost every week they encourage the parents to visit and spend sometime for morning or afternoon tea and snacks. Overall we are very happy with OAC . It's rightly named as "Only About Children"Thank you very much to entire staff. :- Sundesh Pawar

Highly recommend this place. My daughter has been with the centre since Dec 2022 in the Navigators room and this was her first ever childcare exposure. She looks forward to going there each day. Each and every educator is extremely caring and we can clearly see that they love their job. The different activities that the educators plan for each day has a lot of thoughts put into them. Best decision we made for our daughter!

I have been with this center for so long and I can't thank them enough for the care that my kids have gotten/get. Both my kids started at 9 months here and all the carers have such a good bond with the children. They nurture the kids to grow up as independent and confident individuals. Thanks to Sukhwinder, Mythili,Jinky,Kristie, Aaron, Manraj,Zaib and Ashwini for helping with my son this year. My elder one still loves coming back to meet his carers.The management has always been prompt in getting back with responses or queries that parents have.Thank you all for all the hard workmand helping us raise our kids.

My daughter hasn’t even started yet & whilst we were on the tour with Emily. Who instantly had an infectious smile and greeted us and had the upmost amazing energy my daughter doesn’t like many people but when we left she just couldn’t stop talking about this place. Which made our enrolment almost instantaneous and very eager to be apart of this childcare. All the educators and children whilst on tour were very kind and polite. I observed many of them always asking the children what they wanted to do. For me that is a plus! It shows children freedom of choice and independent decision making. I can’t wait for my daughter to start here ! Thankyou OAC for welcoming us into your family !

My daughter has been going to OAC childcare, Tarneit for almost 2 years now. I find this place really clean, secure and fun space, which is home-like and welcoming environment for children. My child is happy and engaged with the caregivers in the centre.The care and curriculum of OAC invests in the resources required for children’s learning and the skilled educators balance the learning outcomes with children’s natural interests. Also, good relationship with friendly OAC educators helps extending our child’s learning experience even at home, knowing her interests. Management staff is good at handling our queries related to billing and other admin requests.I recommend this childcare to whoever looking for their child’s overall growth and development.

My daughter is attending this childcare since 2 years and I must say it’s the best childcare service we have experienced so far. Her educators are extremely helpful especially Sukhwinder who very generously tells me about my daughter’s milestones and day to day activities in a very friendly manner. My daughter is very fond of her. In her previous room, a big thank you to Manraj and Shruti for helping her out in transitioning from a very shy kid to confident one.Everyday I look forward to the activities they provide to kids and post on Storypark. All the activities help the kids to improve cognitively. They post daily routine as well that help the parents a lot.Adventurers room has started Show and tell for kids and it’s really helping my daughter in becoming a confident talker.OAC serves healthy food to kids and everyday we get to know what food kids are eating. I always look forward to the meal plan and all the yummy pictures.OAC’s administrative staff is also friendly especially Emily.

My son is attending OAC for more than 1.5 years now. We are so satisfied. Last year, In Trekkers room Nisha and Kulu used to take care of him so well that he actually looks forward going to the centre, even though it was so new for him.This year he is in Creators room. He is cared very well by Jinky, Ashwini and Zaib. He is quickly toilet trained by his excellent educators. The children are well disciplined.They got daily activities which are educational. The best part is the daily post where we get to see lots of photos along with detailed description of their activities. Fransisca also posts daily menu.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
