Why Choose Us?
So glad you asked! Because we’re so much more than childcare. We’re a place to grow (and learn and make friends and explore the world and become school-ready!). What sets us apart is our curriculum and inclusions, immersed throughout your child’s day, every single day.
At Only About Children We Are More Than Childcare.
Our unique approach to early learning goes beyond education to encompass the health, social development and total wellbeing of every child in our care. We call it the OAC Way.Here's what our families have to say
The staff are always friendly and welcoming, and I cannot express how comfortable and reassured I feel leaving my baby at KK. The educators are genuinely caring and attentive, and it’s clear they treat each child with warmth and respect because I can see the difference in my kid. I can see how much she is learning, growing, and thriving there.
OAC Turramurra is an excellent daycare centre. The educators genuinely care about the children and their safety. Their team is always friendly, professional and caring, and I love that they see the value of retaining permanent staff and do not have casuals at the centre. They often have days where the staff are “over ratio-ed” and as parents who think it is ludicrous that the government thinks 4 infants to 1 educator is a reasonable ratio, we are delighted to see a daycare centre where they seem value in putting extra staff in rooms in order to increase monitoring and care in the interest of safety. We hope that OAC head office sees this review and continues to show value and support of staff at OAC.

We have had a wonderful experience at OAC Haberfield. What stands out most is the genuine sense of community that has been created. The staff truly care about the children and their families, creating a warm and welcoming environment where everyone feels valued.
The centre is always exceptionally clean, well maintained, and focused on safety, giving us complete confidence that our child is in good hands. The educators provide a fantastic range of age-appropriate activities that are engaging, educational, and tailored to each stage of development.
One of the greatest testaments to the quality of the service is the staff retention. Many of the educators have been at the centre for many years, which provides continuity and familiarity for the children. Unlike some childcare services where there is a constant stream of unfamiliar faces, OAC Haberfield has a stable, experienced team that genuinely knows and cares for the children.
Every day we are greeted by happy, friendly faces, and our child is excited to attend. We are incredibly grateful for the care, support, and sense of belonging that OAC Haberfield provides and would highly recommend it to other families.
We moved to OAC at the start of the year after leaving a council‑run service, and it has been such a great change for our child. The educators are caring, supportive, and genuinely focused on school readiness.
We’ve seen huge growth in confidence, independence, and early learning skills. The team really knows each child and creates a calm, encouraging environment.
We’re so glad we made the change and truly appreciate the way the centre and educators have prepared our child for big school.
We couldn’t be happier with the care and support our son receives in the toddler room. The educators are warm, attentive, engaging and genuinely invested in each child’s development and wellbeing. A special mention to Stefphy and Jasmine whose leadership is outstanding, they create such a positive, nurturing and welcoming environment for both children and parents. It’s clear the team truly cares, and we feel incredibly grateful to have our son in their care. Thank you to all of the wonderful educators for everything you do each day.
My son loves going here. The centre is cosy and sweet and absolutely adorable. The best part are all the beautiful team of educators who are just wonderful and the kids adore. I love sending my son knowing he has so much fun and learns so much every day.
Fantastic centre with professional and caring staff. The centre is well maintained and clean.
We are so happy to have found OAC Haberfield. Our daughter, although shy and apprehensive to start, immediately warmed to the beautiful educators who are so caring. She loves going to “school” and looks forward to it every week. It is clean, tidy and always feels like home. Unlike other daycares where we have felt like just another number, we always feel welcome. Our daughter comes home singing the songs she learns and is excited to tell us that her highlight of the day is going to school!
Wish we had found OAC earlier for our son when he was at daycare
OAC Haberfield has been a key part of my 'village'. My son started in the Explores room (nursery) and is now in his final year of pre-school. The team are wonderful, their ability to nurture each child's interest and make the children feel safe and celebrated feels above and beyond what I expected from a childcare centre. They have very low staff turnover, most of the staff have been there for more than 10 years, they develop strong bonds with the kids. They support me with meal planning, parenting advice, developing my sons interests and make him feel special every day. We are both going to miss OAC Haberfield next year, but I know because of their hard work and supportive environment, he is going to be ready to take on Primary School.
Love this daycare centre - my toddler loves coming here, educators are lovely and it has a great community feel. Will be sending my youngest here when he is old enough.
My child has been coming here since she was 9 months old she’s almost 5 and honestly would recommend this child care centre to everyone, This childcare centre is truly an amazing place where children are nurtured, supported, and encouraged to grow every single day. The staff are incredibly loving, caring, and always willing to go above and beyond to make every child and family feel welcome and valued. Nothing is ever to much for any staff member here, it’s a perfectly run operation. All the educators are brilliant and so friendly also their communication about the day and what the kids get up to is always published so well for us parents to see what they get up to ! Definitely would recommend OAC Brighton East ☺️
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.

Our daughter attends this daycare and we absolutely love it. The management team Stephy and Jasmine are wonderful and such a delight to speak to. No matter how busy they are, they always take time to engage with us parents and the our daughter. They run the centre like a well-oiled machine and make it feel warm and welcoming.
All of the staff are absolutely amazing. The educators are making much a positive impact on our daughter. We can’t thank them enough for basically helping us raise the kids while parents work. Their jobs are crucially important.
On Mother’s Day, the team provided a beautiful breakfast for all the Mums. Myself and my partner actually felt emotional afterwards because we were so touched by how personable the morning was. We could tell that the all the managers and staff are like a family to each other, not just colleagues.
Thank you for everything :)
We honestly could not be happier with the team at Only About Children. Over the past few months, the campus has gone through a lot of change, and it has been incredible to watch the leadership team — especially Stefphy and Jasmine - step up and guide the campus with such care, professionalism, and heart. Their support for both families and educators has truly made a difference.
A huge shout out to the entire team as well. You can genuinely feel how much the educators support one another, and that positive culture flows throughout the whole campus. Everyone is warm, welcoming, and always willing to help.
One of our favourite things is receiving the child notes and daily diaries. They are thoughtful, meaningful, and make us feel so connected to our child’s day. You can tell the educators truly know and care about each child as an individual.
The campus itself is always beautifully clean and calm, the food smells delicious every day, and the environment feels safe, nurturing, and like a second home for both children and families.
Thank you to the whole Brighton East team for everything you do — it absolutely does not go unnoticed 💛
My nephew attends this childcare centre, and he absolutely loves it here. The educators are all very kind, warm, nurturing, and attentive to his needs. My nephew is very happy at the centre and has greatly improved his communication skills, learning new words every day. He has built a strong sense of trust with the educators and is always excited to go each day.
My nephew is 22 months old now and started attending when he was just 12 months old. It has truly been such a positive experience for him and our family. The centre provides a caring, supportive, and engaging environment for children to learn and grow. I highly recommend this childcare centre to any parents looking for a safe and welcoming place to enroll their child.
I’m very happy with daycare and the care they provide. When my child started i was really worried at first but the positive thing that come with it give me a lot of reassurance, I’ve seen great improvement in my child development, and other child development especially in learning, communication, and social skills.
My child always feels comfortable and excited he enjoys going each day, this Centre became his second home.. which gives me peace of mind as a parent. Very lovely staff too ☺️
We have come here after leaving a centre where my children's behaviour, particularly emotional regulation, was constantly escalating. At
Wahroonga I have seen my childrens understanding, vocabulary and impulse control in regards to their emotional regulation change. The understanding and empathy they are developing for themselves is a huge improvement and directly a result of educators who are empathetic while still holding firm boundaries.

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
OAC Glebe is a wonderful place - the staff are really great, providing a very safe environment and lots of well thought-put activities for the children.

This is a truly wonderful childcare centre with a caring and supportive environment for all children, educators and families.
You can really see the strong sense of community and the passion that the Centre Director, Carley and her team has for creating a positive and nurturing space. Highly recommend this centre to any family looking for quality care and support.
We moved our youngest to this centre after a management change at a previous centre. The moment we walked in, we were sold. The Staff & educators at OAC Carina are wonderful, vibrant & caring, you can see the care for every child. A place where the Management Team know your name & really know the ins and outs of your child. I can’t recommend this centre highly enough & I would give it 6 stars but it won’t let me.
The staff are very caring. Extra care is given to help non English speaking kids adapting to the new environment. Outdoor playground is large, spacious and well covered with canopy. Activities are diverse and involving.
