Our child attends OAC at Albert Ave, Chatswood. I have always loved it there and my daughter has always enjoyed it. The staff are fantastic and Rosie is the best chef. I have to say though, since Addie started as Director and Alicia moved into the Assistant Director role, there has been a shift in a very positive way. The way the rooms are set up, the Easter day, the staff seem brighter (again, the teachers have ALWAYS been amazing). The change is extremely positive. I have always loved our daycare but now it's next level fabulous.

Both my daughters have been going to OAC since they were 14 months old. The educators are very caring, professional and responsive. Food is cooked fresh daily on campus by Rosie who not only is a great chef but the most caring, gentle and warm person, she shows so much love and empathy towards the children and parents.Alicia and her toddlers team are amazing, great childcare overall!

My 2 year old son has been attending OAC Chatswood Albert Ave for 6 months now and he absolutely loves it. The campus facilities and resources are great, there aren’t too many children in each room and the staff are so caring, kind and attentive to every child. I have so much confidence at drop off knowing he’s going to have a fun day learning new things, making friends and being so well cared for by the team!

Wow, lovely set up and learning areas for the children! You can tell that it's very child centered with the choice of displays, colours, lettering font and style etc that is pleasant and easy on the eyes to help create and encourage an effective learning environment for the children.

Kristine DV Kristine DV 1635840760
My son developed a lot especially in literacy because the educators interact with children well. They have structured learning and uninterrupted play everyday. They always update parents of plans. I love the up-to-date activities in Storypark. I know how often and how long my son took a nap. I know how much he's eaten. And with many photos uploaded, I know my son was in good care.

All the educators are so professional and they are passionate on what they are doing. My son has special needs and they are very patient with him. They still accepted my son with open arms even though the other campus refused him and we experience some discrimination. The kids there are also so nice. I really appreciate all the people there. The food being served is also delicious Thank you so much Ashleigh, Jasmine, Susan, April, Daisy, Lucy, Rosie and the rest of the educators I have not mentioned. Kudos to you all
