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
My son absolutely loves coming to OAC every morning, the educators have made a huge effort to connect with him and our whole family and it has made the biggest difference in our experiences with daycares. The new management team have really pulled this centre together and we couldn’t be happier!
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

We have an 18-month-old child. Following an unfavorable experience with a previous daycare, we discovered OAC. Upon our visit, the immediate observation was the remarkable tranquility of the children. Gayatri, the delightful and highly professional manager, provided a comprehensive explanation of the facility's operations and how they would care for our baby.
We cannot recommend OAC enough. Our toddler has blossomed, learning new words every day and asking to 'go play with friends'. The staff treat every child with genuine warmth and respect. The center is always spotless, and we've noticed how our baby has changed positive behavior.
Only About Children has exceeded our expectations. The teachers are professional, kind, and genuinely care about each child’s well-being and development. A wonderful daycare with an amazing, positive atmosphere. My child enjoys coming every day, which gives us peace of mind as parents. Excellent care and friendly staff. Highly recommended.
The staff are incredibly caring and supportive. My child feels happy and comfortable every day. We appreciate the safe and friendly environment you provide.

Outstanding Campus. Would highly recommend. My son has been at OAC brookvale since nursery. Each year the team have been incredible and continue to go above and beyond. The campus has excellent staff retention and all the educators are fabulous - so much genuine care and focus on the kiddies wellbeing and growth. They are so well organised and each day is filled with lots of activities, messy/creative play and incursions with a strong educational focus. Bonus points for the fab inhouse chef Jack who makes amazing food. Comms are amazing, daily stories/ monthly snapshots / weekly newsletters / information packs etc. The campus has a great community, both within the educators themselves and the mums/dads. And, this is led by the INCREDIBLE campus director, Patrica – hands down amazing lady!
We’ve been part of the Only About Children Carindale community for over 3 years, and choosing this centre for our children has been one of the best decisions our family has made. From the very beginning, Julie, Nat, and the entire team have created a warm, nurturing, and genuinely supportive environment where our children have thrived socially, emotionally, and developmentally.
One of the standout qualities of OAC Carindale is the low turnover of educators. Seeing the same familiar, caring faces each day has helped our children build strong, trusting relationships and given us great confidence and continuity as parents. The educators truly know each child as an individual and provide tailored experiences, guidance, and encouragement to help them grow and flourish at every stage.
The attention to detail throughout the centre is exceptional. From the Nursery stage, our babies were always clean, well rested, happy, and very well cared for. We particularly appreciate how proactive and attentive the team is when it comes to children’s health and wellbeing — any signs of illness are identified and communicated quickly, with thoughtful measures taken to help limit any potential spread through the centre. As parents, that level of care and vigilance provides enormous peace of mind- it also means our children are rarely unwell.
Most importantly, our children genuinely love attending OAC Carindale. They are constantly learning, growing in confidence, and coming home excited to share what they’ve experienced each day. The centre has built such a strong sense of community for both children and families, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care, professionalism, and dedication shown by every member of the team.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Only About Children Carindale to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and high-quality early learning environment.
Both kids of mine have been there from 6 months old - primary school and even though we moved further from the center we couldn’t bring ourselves to change Childcares . The team are absolutely amazing and the attention to detail by the staff makes us feel so comfortable having our children there . Will be sad to finish up at OAC but forever thankful for the nurturing environment they have provided our two boys .
We are so grateful to have found Only About Children Southbank . From the moment we toured, we felt welcomed. The teachers in all room are incredibly nurturing, and it’s clear they genuinely care about my child's well-being and developmental milestones. My little one genuinely loves going there every day! The communication is fantastic, and I feel completely at ease knowing they are in such safe and caring hands. Highly recommended to any parent looking for quality childcare!
Shout loud to the staffs and the facilities of this centre. Been for a tour and it was an amazing experience.
Bub has been coming here for more than a year now and the staff is amazing and professional. Could not imagining going elsewhere with our kid.
I highly recommend this centre! My daughter has been attending the Nursery room since last October, and the experience has been wonderful. As she started from such a young age, I was initially nervous, but the educators have been absolutely amazing. They are so warm, caring, and attentive to every detail, making sure she feels safe and loved.
It’s such a relief to see her smiling at the educators every morning. I’m so grateful for all their hard work and support. If you're looking for a childcare centre where your baby will be in great hands, this is definitely the place!
