Our Daughter has been with OAC for a while. She was hesitant in the beginning but now she is going with the flow. I’m sure this has to do with the great experience she is getting from attending. Salma, Aastha and Albee are very patient and helpful.I get update from App which makes me assured.

A small centre, a personal approach and the educators at the centre take good care of the children.

Excellent campus. The director/ educators have provided such an excellent standard of care for my children over the years. It’s been more than a positive experience, our children have developed such fond memories of their educators and peers.I highly recommend this campus, the long daycare hours is very helpful, they communicate well via the app/emails/phone calls and are always happy to answer any questions. The meals they provide are nutritious and varied, the activities and development milestones are shared regularly on the app, any concerns are raised immediately etc.

My kids love attending OAC. The educators are compassionate and professional, and provide top-quality care. The administrative team is efficient and helpful, and the directors do a phenomenal job. I always feel confident that my kids are going to be cared for and have a great time with all the other lovely kids at the school. The team did an amazing job through the Covid-19 crisis and I am extremely satisfied that my family is safe at OAC!
