    "The staff are very friendly and approachable, always greeting us with happiness. They go above and beyond to make my daughter feel loved and safe, which is so important to me. She is always happy to be there and happy when I pick and drop her off. I also love the activities and experiences the educators plan for the kids during the day, really purposeful and creative."

    "The staff go over and above. Holly was at another childcare centre before The Cottage and we thought that centre was wonderful but once we experience The Cottage curriculum for toddlers it is 10/10. From the minute I drop Holly I know she is in the best hands I could leave her with apart from her own parents. The constant communication each day and report on what she did, learnt, ate and slept is next level."

    "We love the Cottage. The staff is amazing and my son absolutely loves it. I love the size of the centre as well (not too big and not too small). I love that we don't feel like "just a number". We have a warm and positive relationship with all the staff and even some of the other parents."

    "After a few weeks at a bigger, new centre down the road, I moved my 1yo twins to the Cottage. I couldn’t have made a better move. It’s so nice to feel valued and treated like family. Jess & all the educators are genuinely beautiful people and have helped my girls settle so quickly. They have taken the stress out of drop off and pick up and couldn’t be more helpful. Simple tasks can be overwhelming with multiples, but you all make my mornings & afternoons so much easier. Thank you "

    "The best centre I've ever dealt with. A small, family orientated facility where my child thrives every day. The staff are friendly and genuinely care for the parents, kids and each other. I love how the teachers/educators are rotated so all the kids and teachers know each other. Hands down THE BEST the Gold Coast has to offer in early childhood. Well done guys and thank you for every little thing you do for our little people."

    "We came across this unique daycare and it wasn't like any others we had seen. It has a very good vibe and unique look. The staff are very lovely and professions- and the teachers are just the best my kiddies love them all. The indoor and outdoor areas are great with lots of toys and not to mention the delicious menu of food for the kiddies. Highly recommend!!!"
