The staff are like a second family. The care they provide to our son and family is incredible and we feel so lucky that our child can thrive within the beautiful community Jo and her team have created.

My Stepping Stones (MSS) was recently taken over by OAC. I was really reticent that a big childcare provider - that I had some really negative experinces with my other daughter in the past, which is why I moved to MSS - was taking over this much loved and local daycare.However, the transition has been relatively seamless. This is entirely due to Jo, the incredible director and her amazing MSS team that stayed on. The edicational support, diverse care, warmth and personal interest in each of our children and their families is still very evident and present. Knowing that Jo and the original team has stayed on through this transition and will continue to educate and nuture our children is why this centre has stayed so special. I am so grateful to Jo and her team.

Only About Children Rose Bay provides a warm and nurturing environment that I feel very comfortable with, especially when dropping off my child, Audrey. The staff there are extremely caring and attentive, making sure that each child receives the personal attention they need. Safety is a top priority at this facility, and it is evident from the well-maintained play areas and the stringent safety protocols they follow. The educational programs are diverse and engaging, focusing on the holistic development of children. Audrey always comes home full of smiles from her day, which is a testament to the stimulating environment provided.Overall, Only About Children Rose Bay offers peace of mind to parents, knowing that their children are in safe and capable handsCan i just say Sivan, Jo, Bianca and the team are absolute stars and it is always a pleasure when I come in to their smiles.

Couldn't recommend more, the best educators and team. My children have both been going here since before they were one and every day they are learning more and more. The love and support from the team is unmatched.

Our 16month old son goes to the nursery here and we absolutely love it and we know our son does too. When we first inspected the nursery we got a nice homely, friendly vibe (unlike some of the larger style nurseries). The carers are very friendly and look like they work very hard at keeping the little ones happy, safe and engaged. We would highly recommend this nursery - it took us a lot of time hunting around to find a nursery like this one and the evidence is in them exceeding the national standard!
