Riverhills Childcare Centre | Journey Early Learning

My two little ones go to Journey Early Learning at Riverhills.. just around the corner from 'Just Poppy's' burger joint.I just want to say how impressed I am in this Childcare- every month or two we get a parents date night where they take ALL the kids for FREE so mums and dads can have an evening out.- The last couple Halloweens they set up a fantastic service with free popcorn and stuff, jumping castle, reptiles etc.- a few nights ago they did a kids art show. They had a bouncer at the front gate checking names (for show to make the kids feel special) . We went inside and there were refreshments galore, juice, sorbet, water etc. Also food platters to cover hungry kids and parents plus gluten free.There is a reason we have put three children through there.They have very dedicated learning program, significantly happy kids, and they will get involved and I believe support everything community.These people seriously rock. I have met every single staff member and I watch their interactions with the kids. I certainly give my name in endorsing them based on my experience.

Our kids have attended Journey Riverhills for the last year and have loved it! We were previously at a different centre and the differences have been like night and day. At Journey, the staff genuinely care, are very professional and always seek to address any issues parents raise. The core staff have been the same throughout the year so the kids have had stability and really been able to build relationships with them.The kindy room has gone on several wonderful excursions catching the local council bus. They also had a few activities with outside instructors (dance, gymnastics). The kindy room completed a few kindness projects within the local community. The centre has put on several free community events (family movie nights, Christmas markets) which have been wonderfully run (organisation is next level!), the kids have had a blast and we've met other parents too.There is great communication from Head Office so parents are always kept in the loop of latest updates, policies, etc. There are also quarterly feedback surveys. We could go on and on but in a nutshell, we have absolutely loved our time here, the educators are amazing!

Very happy with this centre.They take amazing care with my child, and i love seeing all the updated photos.

This centre is absolutely awesome, There is such wonderful, useful resources in the rooms that the children are able to use and explore different purposes during play, the staff and manager I couldn't be more comfortable and happy with they are caring, supportive and so out going.I've never been so happy and comfortable with a centre and that I'm not even in it, I feel so happy walking my Lil man in and me walking out as I know he will be cared for, supported and loved.The past years I have been with my older boys when they were in daycare and from what I experience not only as a parent but an educator it made me so nervous about having my lil one be away from me. So I did make the decisio to have him attend Journey Riverhills without me and I definitely made the best decisions he absolutely loves it there with the most amazing staff, I've never been so comfortable to walk into a place and know what you see is what you get. My Lil man has grown into such a bubbly and outgoing Lil man with the help and support of the staffThank you All so much for everything

I have been at this centre for a number of years now with my 2 children. I absolutely love the family" nature of the business. The staff are their number 1 asset along with the "Wholesome" meals. Mari is amazing at preparing these healthy

Vaneda, the brilliant chef at the centre, has been incredible with attending to my son’s dietary needs. She, and the team, have been instrumental in supporting his health and well-being overall. I am so appreciative! Thank you!

We love our childcare centre. The educators are so caring and amazing; lunches are always yummy and healthy; they provide many extra services and events such as haircuts for kids, school photos, movie nights etc. Our twin toddlers are very happy there and love every single educators they have. We can't recommend them highly enough.

Returning to work after having my son was incredibly stressful. From the day we had our walk through of the centre to the days we came to visit for our “getting to know you” days I felt at home. The centre is beautiful and homely, feels like you are walking into a cottage with thoughtful displays of nature and beautiful cosy furniture for the children to lounge on while they explore all the interesting toys and books. My son being so young and breastfed had only really spent his time during the day with me. So I was incredibly impressed with the support and commitment of the staff in settling my son into his new place in the nursery. We were greeted each morning with smiles and everyone knew my sons name. My commitment to breastfeed my son was supported and even with bottle refusal issues at home my sons educators persisted with introducing his bottles of breast milk and have been successful in bottle feeding him, which has helped at home. The food is incredible and most mornings I am met at the door with glorious smells of home cooked meals. The centre uses Storypark app to keep me updated through the day about what my son is eating and his activities through the day. The staff feel like an extension of our family and I am so glad that my son will grow up knowing them all. We will be staying for a long time!

When I went to Journey early learning Riverhills I knew straight away that this would be the place where my kids would come to for care. From the wonderfully attentive, caring and interested staff (actually interested in what they kids are saying, doing and their needs) to the very clean facilities, rooms and beautiful outdoor area, it really was everything I was looking for in a daycare centre and more. The staff are fantastic communicators and that really makes a difference. They are very interested in children as individuals and want to learn as much as they can about each child in their care. My kids adjusted really well to daycare here and if they were ever upset when I left.I am very grateful for date night for parents.
