Bright Horizons Australia Childcare Elsternwick 9 McMillan Street, Elsternwick, Victoria 3185

"Kat and her team of amazing educators have really nurtured and taught our son with so much love who attended this centre for the past 4 years. I cannot recommend this childcare centre for their down to earth attitude that are reflected in the way they relate to the kids and parents. It may not look like one of the more modern centres with bells and whistles but it is homely and the best childcare ever! Thank you so much for being such an amazing team. We tried 2 other centres before we came to bright horizon and we never looked back. we will be missing you once Raiden starts prep!!!!"

"I highly recommend Bright Horizons in Elsternwick! Such an amazing childcare for our son who was 1 when he started. BH is smaller childcare centre, where everyone knows one another and you are always warmly welcomed. We loved that it has a very caring, creative and nuturing community environment. All the carers and staff are all incredible, and the centre has great staff retention. We were really impressed by how many skills our son started developing once he began at Bright Horizons. We also loved how much outdoor time they give the children. After moving to the other side of Melbourne, I still can't find a childcare that quite compares... BH provides the perfect environment for young children to play, learn and grow. ."

"Our daughter started here when she was 2 years old, and we have been so happy. She actually asks to go to Bright Horizons on her days off she loves it so much! The staff stick around - which was a big one for us - as a previous centre had had so many different people all the time, it was tricky for our child to settle in and feel comfortable. Bright Horizons is so different, you can tell the Educators really care for the kids and build up strong relationships with them. Highly recommend!"

"We never seriously considered enrolling our eldest daughter elsewhere, and three years later, and with our son now also at Bright Horizons, we are so glad we made that decision (when we had to move house, our main criteria was moving somewhere within the area so we wouldn't have to change childcare centres!). We love that the environment is so welcoming and comfortable, and each of the staff are naturally warm, encouraging and protective of the kids. That warmth extends to the parents - as parents, we look forward to seeing the educators each day! The kids are extended and challenged in the right ways - they're always showing that they have picked up new knowledge and skills, without showing any signs that they've been inhibited in their freedom to be joyful, messy, creative and empathetic. Throughout all of the challenges of 2020, which tested us all in the most unexpected ways, Bright Horizons was our one constant rock, and for new parents without extended family in Melbourne, that rock was a real lifeline."

"Bright Horizons is a wonderful childcare centre, with caring and passionate staff and a great community of educators and families alike. The unique building compliments the team, which makes it feel like a second home to our son that is full of warmth. We are very appreciative of everyone for taking such great care of him and challenging him every day with new and interesting activities and themes, including learning about and celebrating many different cultures and perspectives."
