Surry Hills Early Learning Centre

Our daughter has attended for over 3years and without hesitation her little brother also intends to join her at SHELC soon. Vicky, Manny & Monica treat our daughter like one of their family. She loves her educators and even brings home new Spanish words she has learnt! She’s very happy at SHELC which for us is the most important factor.

Our Gigi went to SHELC for 2 years, starting at 9 months old, progressing from 3-days a week to 5 days a week by the end. We feel so fortunate to have had Gigi in their care. She formed such close friendships with her classmates and special bonds with her educators thanks to the small classes and longstanding staff. We can't speak more highly of Miss Vicki and her family who run the centre. Miss Vicki & the educators have an uncanny ability to provide structure and discipline in a very caring and fun way, resulting in really polite groups of children that enjoy being at school! It's a hidden gem, whilst the space might be small, don't be fooled, they make up for it in spades through educational activities. Gigi was able to count and sing the alphabet well before her 2nd birthday, thanks to SHELC. We were so sad to leave when we moved away. We wish we could have brought SHELC with us!

The most beautiful daycare centre that is so well run with the most amazing team of staff. They treat the children like their own and it feels like a home away from home for the kids. My son was so happy and settled to go off to care each day and the teachers showered him with love and kindness. We are so sad to be moving away and leaving this amazing place. Thank you Nestor and team - what a special place!

We truly had such a great experience with SHELC. We loved that it was a smaller daycare, run by a family - with Nestor running the ship and Vicky and Manny bringing so much warmth and love to the children - they treated my boys like their own. My boys loved it there and we always knew there was a high level of care taken with them. I highly recommend this daycare to all.

You're going to be in safe hands, highly recommend them.

I could not recommend this Early Childcare centre enough. My son attended 4 days a week from 6th months to 3.5years of age - It become like his 2nd home & family. The care and love he received was more than we could have ever wished for him & knowing he was spending his days in such care kept my mother's heart at peace. I could not recommend this place highly enough - Forever grateful our paths cross this beautiful centre.
