Comments from our families
“Small, lovely staff, great teaching philosophy. Can’t fault, the experience up to date has been great. When we have had concerns in the past they have always been responded to quickly, we have felt heard, and solutions/changes provided were suitable.” - Hanna
“It is the best kindy around! Honestly all of the teachers are so caring and invested in our kids. I feel like they are very loved and nurtured. I like how well structured the days are and Frankie Boy and Lulu just thrive there. Keep up the good work and continue to help little people grow.” - Emma
“I love that all ages are catered for, the strong values you instill at the centre, the teachers and their connection with the children and families. We are wrapping up our time here and over the past 5 years have loved being part of your centre. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our children and supporting them in their development.” - Theresa
“Christian education, close to home, caring staff, environmentally focused. I just want to thank you guys again for all the love and care you have shown our boys, we feel very fortunate to have them attend your centre.” - Alyce
“Not too big, not too small. Felt very homely and the staff were so caring. We just knew after visiting that it was the right choice for our family.” - Harmony
“Our son was a little bit shy and quiet when he started. He took his time settling into a new environment, but the teachers have been amazing supporting his transition. After one week we already noticed at home a signifiant progress in language, skills and initiative in his play. He has grown into a confident little guy, who now loves to go to kindy and made new friends. The Children’s Ark has a warm homely feel and personal approach to each family that comes here. It’s a great feeling to drop off your little one, knowing they are going to have a great day!”

“I thought long and hard about which kindy to send my daughter to, and I am so pleased that I picked Children's ark. The teachers are all so wonderful and care for each and every child and the atmosphere is lovely, I can't speak highly enough and I will also send my second daughter to children's ark too. The stories describing the children's daily adventures are great and my daughter is thriving at Children's Ark. You won't regret sending your child here!”

“We signed our two year old daughter up with Children's Ark this year. I have to say, our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Supportive of the parents, engaging and stimulating for the kids. She has come home with exciting stories to tell us. I also appreciate the way they create a kind community - that's a rare thing and much needed these days. Will happily continue with Children's Ark for the foreseeable future.”
- John
“It’s a lovely modern centre and was planned very well for all different activities for the children. When we first visited the centre we knew our 2 boys would love it just from the outdoor spaces alone. When our 2 boys started the centre we quickly realized how lovely, kind and caring all of the teachers all were which ticked all of the boxes for what we want for our children. Thank you for loving my boys like your own. They both love attending Children’s Ark.” - Lucy
“Children's ark is truly our home away from home. The genuine love the teachers have for our boys can be seen in the smiles as you enter the door and can be heard in the gentle voice of reassurance. Our boys are content in their environment and each teacher has taken time building special relationships with them. Along with the natural, open-ended resources, the teachers truly make Children's ark a childcare that children are excited it go to each day. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”
- Candice
“As a qualified early childhood teacher myself, there is nowhere else I would rather send my children. I have never come across any other early childhood setting to have such a beautiful family feel and to really focus on the individual needs and interests of the children as they do. The teachers constantly strive to stay on top of best practice, and do an excellent job of engaging and extending children; and the children adore them! You could not do better than Children's Ark!
- Katrina
“We love Children's Ark! The teachers are simply wonderful at helping children to engage with the world around them, encouraging their inquisitiveness, supporting them in challenges and helping them navigate friendships. It is the wonderful combination of a down-to-earth, experiential and creative play philosophy alongside a Christian value ethic that fosters kindness amongst the teachers, children and the wider community that makes this place such a gem!”
