I feel there's a culture at Only For Children woodlea compared to the other day cares our child was put in. Right after you walk in to the day care - you could see the environment is safe and very much belonging for little ones. I would also give due credit to the teachers Floria and Seema as I know still early days for our child at OAC, but I can be assured that he is in safe hands of of the amazing educators. Thanks to Kylie for the seamless administration.

We has been part of this community for four years, and the experience has been nothing short of wonderful. The educators are exceptional - kind, patient, and genuinely caring. They take the time to know every child, not just in their own room but across the whole campus, which creates a strong sense of belonging. From our very first visit, the centre felt warm, safe, and welcoming. Communication is always clear and thoughtful, and it is obvious how much care goes into the planning of programs and daily routines. The learning spaces and rooms are always clean and well organised, and the menu is both nutritious and, as my son would say, delicious. My son is always happy to attend and has shown beautiful growth in both confidence and independence since starting. I am so grateful to have found such a nurturing and professional centre and highly recommend OAC Redfern to any family seeking a supportive and loving environment. The management team and educators are honestly the best! They truly feel like a second family.

We enrolled our son when he was just 6 months old, and from day one, the entire team made us feel like family. Director Diana and all the educators demonstrated exceptional care, professionalism, and communication. They didn't just look after our son, they genuinely invested in his development and wellbeing. The daily updates, open conversations, and their nurturing approach gave us complete peace of mind, making it easy to trust them with our little one during those crucial early months. When we had to leave due to relocating, we truly didn't realize just how special OAC Redfern was. After enrolling our son in a new daycare, the stark difference became immediately clear. I reached out to Diana for a professional opinion, and even though our son was no longer enrolled at OAC, she took the time to guide me through best practices in early childhood education and helped me understand what to look for in a quality service. That level of ongoing support speaks volumes about her dedication to families and children's wellbeing, not just her business. If you're looking for an early learning centre where your child will truly thrive and where you'll be treated as an extension of their family, I wholeheartedly recommend Only About Children Redfern. They set the gold standard for early childhood education and care.

My student placement at OAC Melbourne Central was excellent. The environment is safe, engaging, and well-organized. All staff are highly professional, they all have great knowledge about children. and were incredibly supportive mentors. I learned a great deal and felt fully welcomed into the team. A fantastic centre for children and students alike.

OAC Alexandria is a warm, caring centre with lovely educators who genuinely care about the children.

We have been at this daycare for over two years now (and have been during transition from Kindy Cottage to OAC) and honestly couldn’t be happier. From day one, we felt how personal and warm the environment is — not just for us as parents, but especially for our child. The kids truly come first here, and you can feel that in everything they do. The educators create such a calm, nurturing space where children feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. Everyone is known by name, which makes such a difference and really shows how much attention and love is given to each child. We’ve tried and compared other centres in the area, and nothing came close to this beautifully run, smaller environment. It’s clear how much heart goes into the centre, obviously due to the incredible staff. They are kind, patient, and dedicated. In the last year especially, we’ve seen just how much our child has learned. The education and support provided have been amazing — our child has grown in confidence, knowledge, and independence, and we truly feel they are being set up so well. We’re so grateful to have found this centre and can’t recommend it highly enough. A truly special place run by an amazing team ! Kat

After being an OAC Brunswick West family for so many years, it was hard saying goodbye. We are, and will be, forever grateful to the caring and dedicated educators we had. Despite all the disruptions and challenges early education has faced in the last few years, it feels we barely noticed them due to the sound administration at this centre. Brooke was the constant there, and having her there meant we knew we had nothing to worry about. Working in partnership with the educators means we are well-equipped for the next phase. Thank you, Brooke and Adela.

We’ve absolutely loved our time at Only About Children Warriewood! Our son has just finished up after spending many happy years progressing through the different rooms, from the baby room through to preschool. He adored his teachers, made wonderful friendships, and truly felt at home here. The facilities are fantastic, the food is delicious, and you’re always greeted by smiling, welcoming educators. Every teacher clearly cares deeply about the children and puts a lot of thought into planning fun, engaging activities each day. We’re going to miss OAC Warriewood so much — it’s been such a special part of our family’s journey.

I just want to thank Julie for giving my daughter (who is neurodiverse) her first big break working in childcare - as well as her team for welcoming her with lots of support. It just shows her (and her team) compassion, kindness and understanding. Although we never got the chance to speak to each other, from the bottom of my heart, I just want to express my heartfelt thank you.

We can’t speak highly enough of the centre and the improvements they have made in the past 8 months. One of the things we have always been happy with is the educators. They have all gone out of their way to connect with our daughter but I cannot thank her regular educators enough for everything they have done for our daughter. Kakali, Rani and (baby whisper) Homeria are patient, kind and have helped our little one develop so much. They understand our daughter’s individual needs and have taught her so much. All the educators have worked so hard on building trust with her. We love chef Laurent who always says hello and is happy to share a much loved recipe. We’ve been impressed with the new director Claire and assistant director Rhiannon who are always happy to listen to any concerns or answer any questions we have and have been transparent and supportive.
