Caringbah Childcare & Preschool
They are a level above any other centre we’ve tried - and we’ve tried a few.
The educators are absolutely caring, lovely, and experienced. It’s so reassuring to see my little one smile and jump into their arms at drop-off.
This is the only centre where morning drop-offs aren’t a battlefield of crying kids. Here, every child has a seat ready for them, they start with breakfast, and ease into the day calmly.
They use an app where you can track everything happening throughout the day - naps, nappy changes, feeding times (including what and how much they ate).
This is the only place that’s ever provided that, and it’s so helpful to stay updated while you're away.
Their planning and child reports are always spot on. They provide a great summary of your child’s abilities and progress.
Honestly, there’s not a single thing I can complain about. It’s so hard to find a truly good childcare centre, and we’re so glad we found this one. Keep up the great work!
A special mention to Rossana and Jess - our little girl absolutely loves them - but truly, all the educators are lovely and helpful and we feel that our girl is well-looked after here.
I highly reccommend the centre!
My daughter loves her kindy and her teachers, highly recommend it!
The outdoor play area is fab with its numerous activities for young and old kids, and is big enough to be able to have different aged kids in different areas at the same time.
We love picking up our daughter from LLS knowing she's had a wonderful day!
My little girl loves going to day care, 1 less stress out of my life to worry about!
Will be sending our 2nd child there

They are a level above any other centre we’ve tried - and we’ve tried a few.
The educators are absolutely caring, lovely, and experienced. It’s so reassuring to see my little one smile and jump into their arms at drop-off.
This is the only centre where morning drop-offs aren’t a battlefield of crying kids. Here, every child has a seat ready for them, they start with breakfast, and ease into the day calmly.
They use an app where you can track everything happening throughout the day - naps, nappy changes, feeding times (including what and how much they ate).
This is the only place that’s ever provided that, and it’s so helpful to stay updated while you're away.
Their planning and child reports are always spot on. They provide a great summary of your child’s abilities and progress.
Honestly, there’s not a single thing I can complain about. It’s so hard to find a truly good childcare centre, and we’re so glad we found this one. Keep up the great work!
A special mention to Rossana and Jess - our little girl absolutely loves them - but truly, all the educators are lovely and helpful and we feel that our girl is well-looked after here.
I highly reccommend the centre!
My daughter loves her kindy and her teachers, highly recommend it!
The outdoor play area is fab with its numerous activities for young and old kids, and is big enough to be able to have different aged kids in different areas at the same time.
We love picking up our daughter from LLS knowing she's had a wonderful day!
My little girl loves going to day care, 1 less stress out of my life to worry about!
Will be sending our 2nd child there
