The person who runs the daycare is really a nice lady that enjoys been with kids more than anything. Taking care of kids is more a satisfaction than a job for her. Food provided is organic and healthy for babies and kids. I'm very happy to have my baby there.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
