Penola Casa

Beautiful facility, very nurturing staff and homemade gourmet meals for the little ones. Can’t fault it.

Great environment for children who fit the mould and respond to teacher-centered learning. Families who are looking for child-centred learning and require some flexibility may be better supported elsewhere. Unfortunately they do not practice what they preach.

We tried a few different centres and Penola just sets the bar so much higher. I couldn't imagine a more caring, responsive, professional, child-centred environment than what they provide. Our kids love going there, they love the educators, there is virtually no staff turnover, the food is fantastic, the centre is inclusive, the facilities are awesome, the staff are so genuinely caring and wonderful, they teach caring for country, I could not recommend Penola highly enough. I'm astounded that anyone could find a reason to leave a negative review! I only wish they'd open a school so our kids would never have to leave!

Absolutely amazing child care centre which our daughter Valentina loves. Like any good business it needs a good leader and director and Letitia is just that, fantastic. The centre has structure and they practice and follow the Reggio approach. Not once has the centre felt like a babysitting service" which I hear some places can be. The staff are caring and do a wonderful job looking after our daughter and providing plenty of play and learning activities."

Could not be happier with the care and education my son is getting at Penola. It is his home away from home and he is very comfortable running off to play with his friends at drop off (and then doesn't want to leave at pick up!). Most weeks there are activities/ fund raisers/ celebrations on for the kids and families to get involved in. The kids are always busy with new projects within their environment or the surrounding community. The educators are fantastic people who take great interest in the families they are caring for. We really do love our daycare!

An exceptional centre. Our two boys are so lucky to go here - fantastic staff - so caring. Responsive, phenomenal Director and a brilliant ‘casa’. A wonderful community.
