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
Both my children have had a fantastic experience here. I highly recommend this centre and believe they are a great team of educators and teachers. I’ve had dealings with both the regional manager and the campus director and both are fantastic.
Very happy
Both my kids have attended from 1 years old, well run centre!
Could not recommend a better place to put your kids in ! Game changer !

Highly recommend OACC! The educators are kind, caring and genuinely invested in the children. Our child has loved attending and has grown so much in confidence and development. Always a welcoming environment and such peace of mind knowing they’re well looked after each day.

Great centre all round - great facilities, resources and range of activities. The educators are kind, caring, and nurturing. My child has been happy there since joining in 2024. The manager is great, actually listens, takes feedback onboard and cares for the children well being. Low staff turnover. Always accommodating and flexible.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful, nurturing environment for our daughter. She started in the nursery room at OAC Rhodes about 3 years ago, and we have stayed with the center ever since.
The educators are genuinely caring, professional, and dedicated to the children's well-being. Our daughter often suffers from eczema flare-ups, and the educators and management team consistently go above and beyond to help her manage it. They proactively apply her moisturizer multiple times a day without hesitation, which gives us immense peace of mind as parents.
We cannot recommend OAC Rhodes highly enough to any family looking for excellent childcare!

Since joining OAC Elsternwick I have been made to feel part of a family. My baby is cared for, supported and loved… leaving me with no hesitation leaving her. She has the best time at daycare.
We have had such a wonderful experience with OAC Northcote. The educators are incredibly attentive, caring, and genuinely invested in the wellbeing and development of the children. The environment is warm, welcoming, and nurturing. I have complete confidence that my child is safe, supported, and encouraged every day.
Our family has had a wonderful experience at OAC Carindale. The team consistently create a warm, welcoming, and caring environment where children feel safe, supported, and genuinely valued.
A special thank you to the Tiny Tots team, who go above and beyond every day with their patience, kindness, and dedication. The genuine relationships they build with the children and families make such a difference.
The leadership at the campus is also outstanding. The directors and team are approachable, professional, and clearly committed to providing high-quality care and education. It’s reassuring to know our child is in such capable hands.
We are incredibly grateful to be part of the OAC Carindale community and highly recommend the campus to other families.
We’ve tried a few different places lately and OAC Croydon Park has been the best by far. My daughter is happier than ever, arriving and leaving with a smile every day.
The educators are caring, nurturing, friendly, and supportive, creating a warm environment where children feel safe and valued.
Seeing my daughter grow in confidence and look forward to attending each day gives me great peace of mind. We’re so grateful to have found OAC Croydon Park and highly recommend it to other families.
I highly recommend Only About Children Elsternwick. The educators are passionate, caring, and truly invested in every child's growth and happiness. They look after the children so well and support them across all areas of development. We couldn't be happier with the care our child receives
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!

My child started at OAC Elsternwick in Jan 2026. The team has been so wonderful during the transition, he is so happy and confident now. My son loves his room educators and socializing with the children.
My two children have attended OAC Elsternwick so we have been fortunate enough to experience the baby room, toddler 1, toddler 2 and the preschool room. I have continuously been impressed by the love and care both my children have received in all of the rooms, how attentive the educators have been, how enthusiastic they are towards our children’s wellbeing. My kids have always loved going and I know I can drop them off with full confidence in the team. They have my gratitude and deep appreciation for their ongoing hard work. The relay of information is smooth and consistent, we are always kept in the loop. The education is of the highest standard and my preschooler started school this year with her best foot forward thanks to the amazing preparation given to her here.
My child has had so much anxiety around daycare and the girls at haberfield have made this experience so wonderful
For him. They have all gone above and beyond to make him comfortable.
We are so pleased with the centre and highly recommend
I've had both of my children at this centre and have been so pleased with the level of care and attention from the centre. I would highly recommend.
Staff help children and give them a bit more attention when they need it.
Long standing staff - they are "career ECEC" (i.e. not a job while studying). They're lovely people who seem to be friends outside of work so it creates a lovely, warm and fun atmosphere for the kids.
The staff have also helped me during my motherhood journey and have always been wonderful in offering suggestions with things like toilet training, transitioning from 1 to 2 children, and just a kind ear during difficult mornings.
The facilities, outdoor playground and toys are fantastic.

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.
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.
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.
