Here’s what our families have to say

We are so grateful to the team at Only About Children Granville. Thank you so much – we really appreciate the love, care, patience and effort all the educators are putting in to help settle our son into the centre. It is clear how much the educators genuinely care for the children, and their support has made this transition much easier for our family. We feel reassured knowing he is in such a nurturing and welcoming environment. Thank you for everything you do!

I have enrolled all three of my children here at the same time through flexi care and Julie and her team go above and beyond to support me and provide care for my children. My children all come home happy and ask to keep coming to the Granville Campus. The centre is so clean and all the educators are warm and friendly. The kitchen is always clean and the food always looks delicious when i’m coming to do drop offs. Highly recommend OAC Granville. Thanks again to Julie who is very professional and emphatic at the same time. I am very grateful for everything you do for my three children.

The educators are caring, supportive, and always make my son feel safe and loved. He has learned so much and enjoys going every day. Thank you for creating such a warm and welcoming environment for the children

My two children have been here since they were 2 years old and have always been very well looked after. We’re very happy with the care and environment here.

Great centre, clean and tidy, beautiful educators who are loving and caring. All 3 of my children have attended this centre. With my last child I took her else where due to being closer to work and I have come back around to this centre and the educators and the tidy and cleanliness of the centre is unbeatable

My son attends OAC South Granville and I cannot thank the educators and staff enough. They always go above and beyond to cater for my child whether it be their dietary requirements or cultural beliefs. The staff are accepting of everyone’s beliefs and celebrate all religious holidays. The educators and staff always make me feel welcome and are very transparent. Julie is an excellent director and the educators are all very warm and bubbly. My child enjoys attending OAC and I feel at ease knowing that he attends an educational centre that has his best interest at heart.

My child love to be here

Only About Children in South Granville is THE EPITOME of what an early learning centre should be. My two young children have been attending this centre for about a year now and they both absolutely love it! Julie and the entire team are phenomenal, caring, engaged, kind, nurturing and treat all the children like their own. We appreciate all the love and care that goes to our children everyday! I cannot reccomend this centre enough! Thank you Julie and your wonderful team!!

I recently toured the OAC Granville campus and was completely blown away by the centre. Julie, the campus director, gave us the tour and showed us each room and all its amenities. She was so knowledgeable and clear throughout her tour, and her attention to detail regarding the centre was incredible. She was very patient in answering any questions and made us feel like family as soon as we entered. I’m extremely excited for my daughter to start childcare here, I know she will be in the best hands with all the lovely educators and will thrive!

As a returning parent, I couldn’t be happier to have my second daughter joining the Granville campus. My first daughter started here as a baby and thrived—she’s now in primary school and doing so well, thanks to the wonderful foundation built by Julie and her amazing team. The educators are genuinely caring, dedicated, and create a nurturing environment that feels like a second home.

One standout aspect is the delicious, home-cooked gourmet meals they provide—something many centres don’t offer. I searched for childcare closer to my workplace but couldn’t find anything that matched the warmth, cleanliness, and quality of care provided here. The centre is always clean, cosy, and welcoming, and I truly appreciate the constant updates and communication with parents.

Choosing to return to this centre was an easy decision. I have full confidence that my baby will receive the same love and support her big sister did!

Julie and her team are always so kind and understanding. Very clean and organised environment. My daughter visits casually while in Sydney and loves her educators. Highly recommend.

My son has been attending Only About Children for almost 2 years. Since the day he commenced, we have had such a positive experience. I've seen my son grow in confidence, social skills, independence and building the academic foundations required before he commences Kindergarten.
The staff are calm, positive, attentive and caring and my son easily built rapport and a sense of safety and security. The director Julie is very dedicated, has a wealth of knowledge and creates a beautiful sense of community. I highly recommend the centre and they attend to any children's needs really well.

My son attends this wonderful centre. The director Julie wears her heart on her sleeve and goes above and beyond for the children, families and educators. Julie has done a wonderful job in creating such a positive, nurturing and safe environment. The team of educators work exceptionally hard to ensure all the children feel valued, uplifted, engaged and cared for. My son has learnt so many new skills and has developed in many areas since enrolling into to the centre. Thank you Julie and the lovely team for the wonderful job you guys are doing. I would recommend Only About Children Granville to anyone.

I can't say enough great things about the Granville centre that my two children attend! From the moment we enrolled, we've felt welcomed and supported by a team of caring, dedicated professionals. Julie and the staff go above and beyond to ensure my children are not only safe and well-cared for, but also engaged in meaningful learning and development activities. My kids absolutely love going each day.
I’ve seen my children grow in confidence, social skills, and independence since starting, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful experience they’ve had. I wholeheartedly recommend this childcare centre to any parent looking for a place where their child can thrive.

I am writing to express my utmost satisfaction with the exceptional care and education my children are receiving at OAC Granville and South Granville campus. From the moment we enrolled, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism.

The educators at Granville/South Granville campus have truly exceeded our expectations. Their dedication, patience, and nurturing approach have created a safe and stimulating environment for my children to learn and grow. The educators consistently go above and beyond to ensure the children's well-being, both physically and emotionally.

We are particularly impressed with the center's emphasis on early childhood education, outdoor and indoor activities, and individualized attention. The activities and programs they offer are engaging and foster a love of learning.

Additionally, the communication between the educators and parents is outstanding. We always feel informed and involved in our children's development. The center's commitment to transparency and open dialogue is invaluable.

I have already referred few of my friends to this Centre and keep wholeheartedly recommend OAC Granville and South Granville to any parent seeking a top-quality childcare facility. The educators are truly exceptional, and we are grateful for the positive impact they have had on our family.

Thanks Julie and your team!

Julie and her team at OAC Granville are delivering a great service. We moved our daughter to this centre after a bad experience with another local daycare. Our daughter was predisposed to hate daycare because of this but she has really enjoyed this centre. As a team they're caring, responsive, and seem to really have the children's best interests at heart. Whenever I pick my daughter up they're all informed about her day and know how she's been. I also absolutely love the amount of outdoor play that the children get to enjoy - they're not cooped up in doors which is awesome. They even put effort into building community amongst the parents with multicultural morning teas and other events. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

My daughter went Granville Campus Just for 1 month. Centre is so far from my house that's why I have to take her from Granville Campus. But I really appreciate to educators and manager of Campus. They all work with passion and they do their best for our kids. Thank you so much Granville! Thank you Juliet, Carles and Richgena for everything! Also the other educators who I forgot their names 🙏🏻

We have been sending our little girl to this centre for almost 2 years now. The staff are super friendly and very supportive. Very clean and well organised centre for all ages. Highly recommend

The educators at OAC are amazing - always happy, energetic and engaged with there programs and the students. They constantly go above and beyond to ensure the emotional, mental and physical wellbeing of my son. They are all extremely supportive and have helped my family navigate the various challenges that my son was facing when he first started at the beginning of this year. My son is always so happy and engaged in all the activities that they provide. I want to thank each and everyone one of the educators at OAC for always putting the needs of my son first and ensuring he receives the care and attention needed.

Only about children is a really great place for kids. It is a huge place so kids have lot of space to play around. It has amazing curriculum and provides safe, truly diverse and inclusive environment. Only about children granville has fantastic and experienced teachers who are caring, very nice and dedicated. They are always willing to talk to parents about their kids, they keep communicating and are responsive to any recommendations. All kids are very happy to be there, they greet their teachers every morning with huge smile 🙂 I highly recommend this place.

Best childcare! My son has been attending this centre for 8 months now and we have nothing but positive feedback to give. I had my son at a different childcare centre and he did not respond well to it at all. But within a week of enrolling him at Only About Children South Granville, I noticed such a big difference. He loves going to childcare everyday and he lights up on arrival. He connected with his educators immediately and it was such a smooth transition into his daily routine. The educators are so compassionate, communication has been fantastic and consistent since day one, and all staff are so genuine and feel like family. The director Julie is amazing and is so considerate and easy to deal with. We love that they go above and beyond to incorporate activities that involve the rest of the family, such as the amazing welcome stand they had for Mother’s Day, and getting Grandparents involved on Grandparents day. We know that our son is in good hands. Thank you Julie & the team!

Without a doubt, the best childcare centre! Julie and the educators are absolutely wonderful. The care they have for the children is next level. My son goes here and I feel so comfortable with all the educators. They are warm and affectionate and shower their love for the children. They even went over and above for the Mother’s Day celebration which was just beautiful. Thank you to the OAC South Granville team! ❤️

Both my children attend OAC Granville and I cannot thank the educators and staff enough. They always go above and beyond to cater for my children whether it be their dietary requirements or cultural beliefs. The staff are accepting of everyone’s beliefs and celebrate all religious holidays. The educators and staff always make me feel welcome and are very transparent. Julie is an excellent director and the educators are all very warm and bubbly. My children enjoy attending OAC and I feel at ease knowing that they attend an educational centre that has their best interest at heart.
I would highly recommend OAC Granville!

Both my children attend OAC Granville. It is the best child care centre I ever chose ! The amazing educators helped me toilet train both my kids, become more confident within themselves , learning how to count , say the ABC , identify colours shapes numbers, colour & draw! Julie and her staff are very supportive and care for the children like their own. I highly recommend this child care. Couldn’t be happier. Thank you for all you do

I love the women who work tirelessly to make sure the children are well looked after.

My son started OAC Granville when he was only 11months and has just graduated preschool. He has absolutely flourished under the care the educators have provided there. His social skills were established from being there at such a young age. The educators have done an amazing job shaping him into the young boy he is now. They have prepared him well for Kindergarten. Having the centre provide healthy meals throughout the day has been great for opening his palate to different foods. I cannot recommend OAC enough and I thank you for all you have done to support me as a single working mum.

The best my son enjoyed every single moment there❤

My daughter loves the centre. She started attending LLS Granville when she was 10 months old. We moved houses when she was 3 so I pulled her out and brought her to a centre near our home. She missed LLS so much and begged me to bring her back which I did. She will be year 1 next year and she still keeps asking me to visit the centre. Thanks to all the educators and other staff who cared for and loved my daughter just like their own.

My 2 year old son and 1 year old daughter attend LLS GRANVILLE. It is the best choice I have ever made placing them in this centre. The staff are just remarkable. They attend to all my children's needs and more. They are attentive and caring and never forget to give me a break down on how they spent their day. I also love that the centre is clean and always sending me photos of my kids during the day showing me what they have been doing. I see myself sending all my children to this centre. Love it 10/10
