Fauna Place Early Education Centre, Kirrawee

I cannot rate Fauna Place highly enough. The director, educators and all the staff are so kind, caring, supportive and have provided wonderful feedback regarding my child's progress and development. Their transition to school program is excellent and the playground /facilities are fantastic. I give it 5 stars (I wish I could give more).

For the last 3 1/2 years, I've had the great joy to have my daughters in care at Fauna. They have been so incredibly well cared for, with some wonderful educators that truly care because they evidently love what they do. I could name them all because they really are remarkable.I love getting our little daily photo updates that help facilitate conversations with my girls about what they've learnt or who they've played with. I have always felt listened to and that my girls were safe and happy, which as a mum is what I treasure most. They also have wonderful (and friendly) cooks that have a lovely menu that has helped my fussy kids to explore food with their peers.The last couple years have been a challenge for everyone but the way the council and the director Kristin have navigated it all has helped calm many of my anxieties and keep everyone safe. They have continued to give great care throughout and it's so wonderful to be able to come back inside the centre and see the educators face to face.We originally chose Fauna Place because it was closeby and a more affordable centre, but it's been so much more. And we're so grateful to the amazing team behind it all (that get along so well) and take such good care of our precious little people.

My 3 children love going to kindy at Fauna Place! Kristin is an incredible director and educational leader for her team of caring, nurturing and dedicated educators. The big outdoor area is amazing for my active children! We have been at the centre for 4.5yrs so far with many years to come :)

Both my daughters attended Fauna Place, one has now moved onto primary school. Moving to the area 3 years ago I was nervous about starting the search for a new daycare centre but after only a few short weeks I knew we had made the right decision in choosing Fauna place. The centre is very well run and professional. Kristen is a fantastic Director and 100% across everything that goes on there. The staff are all pleasant and the environment is a very happy one. I have arrived at various times throughout the day over the last 3 years and have always been amazed at how happy the children are. The centre has recently been painted and the backyard has had a total transformation, my daughter is so excited to play there each day, my school going daughter is very jealous.I would definitely recommend Fauna place, great location, great staff, lovely facilities and value for money.

All the teachers at Fauna Place are amazing. They provide my daughter with a loving and playful environment, where she feels confident to explore the world around her. The approach is child-led and evidence-based and I love the focus on outdoor play and the respect afforded the children. My daughter struggled to settle initially, but because of the genuine love and patience from her teachers for her, she now gets upset on the days she doesn't go! Fauna Place has most definitely become part of our 'village'.

We absolutely love Fauna Place Early Education Centre. Both our children started when they were 5-6 months old and I couldn't be happier with the service. The educators are fantastic, very understanding and accommodating to my daughter's allergies. The Director and her team are fantastic communicators who are very considerate. We receive regular updates on the kids, their learning outcomes and the educators have provided valuable advice and assistance with the transition to big school. Fauna Place is a council run centre and highly regulated which is fantastic. I highly recommend Fauna Place.

Fauna Place has been a wonderful centre for both of my boys and my eldest child absolutely thrived here, and my youngest is still loving his time there.The staff are all so kind and caring and the director is amazing who has implanted so many wonderful initiatives for our children.The new backyard is an absolute favourite for all ages and we are so lucky to have found this fabulous centre amongst all the other centres!

The childcare educators at Fauna Place Early Education Center are AMAZING. Kristin & the team are so friendly, supportive & accommodating. The centre itself is very spacious for the kids to play & run around. You can tell that they all genuinely care about the children. Our son gets excited to get there in the morning & always comes home happy. We could see the positive growth with his personal development every week. We also love getting the daily emails with photos and updates on his day and weekly review emails on the centre. Highly recommend this centre for childcare.

We highly recommend Fauna Place Early Education Centre. Our daughter started just before her 1st birthday and absolutely loves going. We were very grateful to obtain a position at Fauna Place as they are highly sought after and we now no why. The educators are all so friendly, professional and approachable. The Director (Kristin) is always available to provide updates and offer advice. We are very happy that our daughter is receiving the best of care and also learning so much academically and socially in a supportive environment.

My daughter has attended Fauna Place for over three years, since she was 18 months old. We have been delighted with the care and education she has received there. There is a stable and consistent staff, led by the extraordinarily capable and attentive director. I always feel comfortable and secure leaving my child at Fauna Place as I know she will have fun with her friends and educators, but also that she will be supported in her learning and her emotional needs.Last year, my daughter was diagnosed with some serious health issues which require on-going management, including support at daycare. My appreciation for the educators at Fauna Place and their commitment to caring for my daughter has only grown since then, seeing their dedication in learning how to meet her health needs and supporting her through this time.I cannot recommend Fauna Place highly enough.
