So close to our home and convenient from my work place many car park. My baby enjoyed her time here and she got settled very easily because educators provides good care. Children are provided with various fun activities and events everyday. The environment is very clean and welcoming. The director and assistant are very helpful, friendly and kind. I highly recommend this OAC Alexandria for every parent who need the best care and education for their little one.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The care they gave our two children was exceptional. Kind, caring and professional staff.

My son has been at this center for over 2yrs now and we love it just as much as him! He has learnt so much from all his teachers and can't wait to go to "school" every week. We are always greeted with a friendly smile on drop off and pick up and staff are always happy to have a chat about how my son has been that day. I feel confident in knowing that this isn't just a place where you leave your child to be minded but somewhere that they are learning so much and making long lasting friendships with other children and their carers too. The facilities are also top class, very clean and children are seperated into age appropriate rooms (all the rooms are large and have lots of toys and age appropriate activities to occupy them), which I love as some other places can be quite small and run down. Large outdoor play areas as well, which my son loves!! Lastly they provide regular online updates with photos of what the children have done that day, I love being able to see what my son has been upto. Overall I'm so thankful to have found such a great daycare for my baby boy.

Finding a daycare was daunting and scary, but little learning school Alexandria has put my mind at ease. My children absolutely love going to school. I can see the teachers take a genuine interest in my children, often tailoring little education pieces to suit mine and other childrens interests. Staff are always friendly, clearly love what they do, and always do their best to accomodate us as our needs change. Cannot say enough good things about this place, accept that if I have a third kid, I will def be sending he/she there too.

We could not have ask for a better centre to trust our 2 kids with while we are at work. The Educators are empathetic and nurturing. I ask my 2 year old if she likes them (naming each of her teachers) and she says yes with a smile - that's reassurance that they are in good hands. The Centre Director is very kind and friendly and always goes above and beyond in accommodating our needs. A great centre where our kids not only enjoy themselves but also learn a lot from!

Highly recommend Little Learning School to any parent out there. For me this was the best decision I made. My child is happy to go there and I find him in the same happy mood when I pick him up. Secure premises and helpful caring staff are always around. This is seriously a Little Learning School as they have helped my son's transition period going to big school so much easier.Julie
