Here's what our families have to say
David Bignoux1743548025Best day care centre in the area (and we’ve tried multiple). Facilities are fantastic, very modern. Educators are amazing. Most have been there for many years which is always a great sign. So attentive with the kids and build such strong relationships with the families. Highly recommend! We send both of our boys there, and they are so happy.
Katerina Cinelli1743498639Incredibly grateful for the wonderful team at OAC Rose Bay Village. All the educators are kind, caring, loving and genuinely care about all the children and their development.
We have been so happy sending our child there - as a parent you want to know that your child feels safe, valued, cared for and happy. OAC Rose Bay Village goes above and beyond to do this and more.
We have seen the positive impact that all the amazing staff and OAC Rose Bay Village has had on our child. Highly recommend!!

Astha Bhatia1743413549My son has been attending Only About Children Hornsby for a year now. While we initially struggled with tearful drop-offs, the warmth, care, and expertise of the entire team always reassured us. Over time, my son has grown to feel safe and happy at the centre. We’ve seen tremendous progress in his social and physical development. The team has been instrumental in helping us meet our goals for him, and they continuously set new ones based on his evolving needs. Their transparency and open communication give us confidence in OAC, keeping us informed and involved every step of the way. Thank you for your ongoing support.

Chantelle Naidu1743066466Could not be happier with my experience with OAC Southbank. Location, staff and most of all my son’s growth speaks for itself. Highly recommended.
Vivien Badino1743054216Our experience with Only About Children in Southbank has been absolutely fantastic. The staff are incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely care about the well-being and development of our son. The facility is safe, and welcoming, and the activities are both fun and educational, helping kids grow socially and intellectually.
The communication with parents is excellent—we always feel informed and included in our child's journey. Our little one loves going there every day, and we've noticed such positive changes in his confidence and skills since he started. I highly recommend this place to any parents looking for a nurturing and stimulating environment for their children.
