What Our Parents Say

Little Learners Academy Austral is a beautiful centre. It’s hard to find such a hands on director at childcare centre these days. The educators are phenomenal. They go above and beyond to cater all our needs and my toddler is extremely happy and thrives at this centre. Highly recommend to all parents out there! You know your kids are in good hands.

Mariam B

Very thankful to the team at Little Learners Academy Austral, they have been so helpful in helping my daughter adapt to childcare with there gentle and thoughtful approach. The centre is big enough for the kids but also they only have 50 kids at the centre so you feel like your not sending your child to a chaotic place with a lot of kids, they still that special care that smaller centres provide.

Rebecca T

Great centre always clean & tidy, staff are very supportive & welcoming. The learning programs for the children are educational especially the school readiness programs. Children are assisted to make friends & learn social skills through their interactions. I would recommend Kids Kinder to everyone!

Linda Barron

I have my children in this centre, i am very happy since the new management took over. The staffs and the service is amazing, every day fresh food cooked for children and children are fed and cared so well. Centre always clean and tidy. I would highly recommend this centre

Ramiza Ali

Our 4 & 2 year old love this childcare. They look forward to play with their friends and meet their teachers during their school days. Teachers are amazing there. Sally (Director) and her team are very experience, easy to communicate, and provide plenty of feedbacks for my kids. I learnt a lot about our kids from the teachers.

Peter Teoh

3 of my children have attended this childcare over the years and I can not fault them at all. If you want your child to be treated as one of their own and feel like they are at home, safe and cared for then this is the place to be! Very clean, family oriented, inclusive, diverse, fed well and most importantly loved!

Wafa Fawal

My previous childcare centre wasn't what meeting my son's needs so when I searched for a quality centre for pre school, Little Learners Academy came up and I just say I was impressed by how clean and professional they were. My son had speech delay and always played on his own at the old centre, I noticed such a big difference from the 1st week how talkative he got and love the fact that they have a buddy system so no child is ever playing alone. I only wish I found it sooner as my son flourished. Best staff a love the activities they have for them little Joeys, dance worx and happy feet. Best center!
