Reviews
Beautiful centre, wonderful facilities and the most amazing staff you will ever come across. Kind and nurturing and have become part of our family. Thank you Currumbin Village EL!
What a special place for my grandchild to start their education. From the moment you arrive at the centre you feel the energy, love and skill that the staff exude. Thank you to all the lovely staff for making this an A++ centre. There are many that are nothing like this place, sadly.
Was not impressed at all by the service I received from Adam, who was working at the time. Very rude and had abit of an attitude when serving people. Also very slow service we waited nearly 20minutes for 2 drinks.
The bathrooms on all floors do not have paper towels or hand dryers. Especially the 5th floor bathroom is very dirty and has a lot of water
I have been working at the centre for almost 2mths and I love it, I felt apart of the amazing team straight away, everyone is easy to get along with and friendly. It is a unique centre with an amazing director and an amazing team.
I am proud to say I am part of the Papilio Currumbin team.

the staff at Milestones Early Learning Tugun are amazing and so supportive, they always have a smile on their face when dropping off or picking up my child.
thank you for all the support team.

I do love bbq city kbbq upstairs in level 5 as my friend Sean does have a good heart while customer service 😃
Didn’t get food poisoning, didn’t slip, didn’t smell like a toilet.
Wonderful daycare centre, all staff are friendly, caring and great management. Son loves going, lots of outdoor and educational play. Also provides special extras which my son loves including soccer, animal experiences. Educators are fantastic, never seen a child upset or left alone, it’s a happy place. I can leave him in confidence knowing he is well cared for.
After a very bad experience in another chilcare in Fairfield finally I found very professional ,happy and friendly staff.My son really enjoying to go to school and he doesn't want to come home.Very meticulous in their jobs specially with allergies.Very big center , amazing building where my son can run and play with his friend. Finally no one screaming and they give love to all the kids
We are very happy with Currumbin Village Early Learning. The staff are very patient and understanding, both with parents and little ones. The Centre's facilities are great - they've done a lot of work in the last year. A good addition to this part of the Coast.
My daughter started at Currumbin Village when they first opened last year. As first time parents the transition to daycare has been so smooth and we are always telling our friends and family how lucky we are to have found such a safe and welcoming environment that our daughter absolutely loves. I have been blown away with the professionalism of the communication and learning updates.
Thank you Sam and all of the fabulous staff at Currumbin Village.

We love this daycare and are so thrilled watching our baby girl thrive.
Drop off and pick up is super smooth
Which is a reflection of the care given.
Sam is an amazing director who has guided us through this new process and is kind and approachable.
I highly recommend Currumbin village early learning.
Thanks Sam and the crew

We cannot recommend this day care enough. Putting your child into day care is daunting enough for a parent but having an amazing, experienced and humble team on board just helps so much more. We have had our little one in this daycare for over 2 years now and she just loves it and is absolutely thriving. Her level of learning and her speech is all from the help of the educators.
Kerry is so accommodating with all areas and helps out so much when needed. That is what makes this day care so much more! It’s a family. 5 stars all around

Best childcare ever. All the girls are so beautiful, loving , caring , nurturing, understanding and professional. The communication is 10/10 with daily updates , photos and detailed description of the learning criteria. Wide variety of meals are provided daily which is such an incredible help. The rooms are always clean and tidy with a wide range of Montessori toys. There’s even free fruit at the door for everyone to help themselves. 10/10 couldn’t be happier.
Currumbin Village Early Learning has really exceeded our expectations. The team are so lovely and our little one absolutely loves his days in daycare. There is lots of variety of activities and learning for the bubs and the communication from the staff is great. Would highly recommend!
I Highly recommend NB and
couldn't be more thrilled to share my feedback about the amazing childcare center where I recently enrolled my 3-year-old son. From the moment we stepped foot through the doors, it was evident that this place was a haven for little ones, overflowing with love, care, and boundless positivity. My son has never been this excited about going to school until now!
I am grateful for the positive impact they've had on my son so far, and cannot wait to see him grow in this environment!

I highly recommend Nurtured Beginnings! I’m a first time mum and was very nervous sending my 15 month old to childcare for the very first time. Jacinta and the team were AMAZING with helping both my son and I transition to the new experience. I’m so grateful for their genuine care, empathy and kindness with the whole process. My son loves NB and we’ve just increased his attendance days. Highly recommend - thank you so much team!!!
I highly recommend Nurtured Beginnings to any parent! They make you feel important and welcomed from principal to all staff members each time you walk in. My daughter loves going there and also loves her teachers, she looks forward to the days that she’s got school. I couldn’t be happier with the positive impact this daycare has on her!
Edge Elanora is a wonderful center with big classrooms and outdoor play. The educators take great care and effort to create a fun and engaging environment for our kids. We will miss Edge when we move to (Big School) next year.
Edge Elanora is a fantastic centre. They made my daughters transition to daycare so stress free. The educators are so passionate about their work and have built great relationships with all of the children. Love coming here!
As a first time mum I really wanted a place that felt like home, I searched more than 10 day cares around my area but when I stepped into Nurtured Beginnings I knew this was the place I wanted my son to be cared for! The team at Nurtured Beginnings are absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond to create a welcoming, caring and educational program / environments for the children and families. Very clean & well maintained centre, the whole layout of the centre is spectacular! Your child will enjoy their day with all the activities and outdoor fun they provide. Highly recommend.
Great to have Harry's Farms here but the place needs more shops, more variety and life
Our youngest attends this centre and can't rate it highly enough!
Educators treat the children like their own, growing authentic relationships with everyone. Also a great community feel. We will be safe to say goodbye next year when our son moves to prep!

Amazing childcare. Kylie and the wonderful teachers provide me with so peace of mind knowing my two kids are in such good hands. Kylie is so responsive to any enquires and all staff are so approachable, loving and caring. I can’t recommend highly enough.
Kylie and her team are doing a wonderful job here at this centre. There is a holistic approach in the learning and my child enjoys going to kindy here everyday. I also love that Kylie and the educators are very responsive to my queries and they communicate effectively with me. These past two years of nurturing and educating my child here at this centre have been precious and wonderfully supported. Thanks Elanora Edge!
My daughter has been to Edge for the past
two years, and just loves it. Kylie, Bruna, Annette, Renee and all the team of teachers are excellent, creative and all the time they have a nice smile on their faces, the center is really well set up. Highly recommend 👍👍

The thought of putting our kids into a new daycare was daunting. We hadn't had the best experience with our previous centre and our son was not coping, he wasn't talking, eating or playing with others. This centre felt good to us. Kerry made the whole process so easy and the educators have been warm and welcoming. Our sons are coming home happy, calm and contented which is something we are not used to! We are looking forward to the journey here and wish we'd moved sooner! 😀
Beautiful staff, such An amazing centre
A completely unwelcoming, unhelpful visit.
No brochures.
No viewing.
Not even a card with their web address where you must register first and be allotted a place 'before' you can even view the facility.
What can be seen of the facility looks sterile, cold.
I wouldn't trust the care of children when even the care of parents is so very poor.

Well laid out and Upmarket shopping square nestled amongst multi businesses and residential areas. Great outdoor mall area for sitting and enjoying your coffee on a warm sunny day.
Retail areas include Harris Farm, Hudson's Meats, great coffee and gelato (Ellie May's Nook is a Standout), hairdressers and nail bar, Restaurants, a bakery, bottle shop (Cellabrations - with a great selection for its size), a pharmacy, doctors practice/dental surgery, and a boutique.
There is ample underground parking (free for the first 2 hours), but this starts to get expensive if you go over the 2 hours.

I couldn’t be happier to find nurtured beginnings. The staff are extremely caring and kind towards the children, the facility is clean and well-maintained, and there's plenty of space for the kids to play and explore.
It’s clear that the staff care about the development of each child and they always take the time to provide feedback on my child's progress. One aspect that I particularly appreciate is their emphasis on outdoor play and exploring. I feel confident and at ease leaving my child in their care each day, knowing that he's in safe and caring hands. I would highly recommend this childcare centre to any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child.

Both of my girls attended Aussie Kindies Tugun and they are honestly the best centre ever! All the educators are so lovely, welcoming and good to the children! They plan so many fun activities for the kids and it always looks like they’re having such a fun time when we get photo updates. I’ve also seen the same staff there for a long time so there doesn’t seem to be a low start turnover which is great!
10/10 recommend this centre, it’s been nothing but amazing!

After searching for 3 months for a childcare centre to send my children to ages 3&4, I came across Nurtured Beginnings. One which wasn’t open but being built.
After myself and my husband met with Jactina our hearts was set. The centre is absolutely amazing.
The staff are extremely friendly, welcoming and professional.
My son looks forward to going there every day even though he only attends 3 days!!
He also suffers anxiety and since attending drop offs have been great in such a short amount of time.
He talks about his new friends and what he learned that day. He seems more interested in learning than ever before. I’m sure that’s because of his teacher.
Definitely the childcare to choose for your little ones.

This is by far the best childcare that I have come across. My kids are excited to go to “school” and don’t want to leave at the end of the day. The centre is aesthetically inviting and beautifully designed. Most importantly, the owner and staff are genuinely caring and interested in forming bonds with the children. I would highly recommend this centre to all parents looking for an exceptional childcare. Thank you to Jacinta, Abbey, and all staff, for taking such great care of my boys 😊
This daycare is truly the best in south GC. Managed by the lovelies Lauren and Ana. The educators here are also amazing. Great program running. We couldn’t be happier. I’m so glad my daughter in back.
We're loving our experience here! A beautiful centre, with lovely, caring, attentive staff. Love the mix of outdoor and indoor play and especially the beautiful art room and access to Currumbin Creek. Highly recommend to friends and family - try your luck on the wait-list!
Usually a good place to eat. Last time we went. A man slipped over. The floor is so slippery. Has multiple people almost slipping over.
There was no food majority of the time for our session. Had to wait for plates.
Drinks are flat. Major OHS zone. The old lady changing the grill doesn’t care if she holds the hot plate near my 3yr old head. Food is great when it is available. Definitely won’t be going back on a Sunday night.

My daughter has been at Edge for the past 2 years, and just loves it. Kylie & the team of educators are excellent & the centre is really well set up. Highly recommend!
I have loved edge early learning ever since we changed kindys three years ago, however, Kylie becoming director has made that daycare just so much better. She is amazing and everyday has a smile and a chat with everyone that comes in. Also special shout-out to Miss Belle who is amazing and my son will miss every much.
Thankyou edge, we will miss you guys at “big school” xxxx

Our son has been attending this daycare from the nursery and is now in junior kindy. He loves the educators and their thoughtful lesson plans. We have seen him improve with his vocabulary and social skills by leaps and bounds - especially through their recent colour activities! But most importantly to us, the educators have always made him feel loved and supported in an environment away from home. They are incredibly nurturing and foster a lovely community among families. Thank you to the team 💜
Nice shopping center that I have come to over a decade with a lovely Harris Farms, coffee shops, bakeries and other services. Been here for brunch many a time and on sunny days a nice place to hang out.
We are so sad to be leaving the centre. Every teacher that we have had has treated our son with such love and care. They go above and beyond to create different learning activities for the children, they update goals and happenings in the app every day, food is prepared onsite and nutritious, the rooms are always tidy and rotated and management are wonderful to deal with. We are always greeted with warmth and happiness at drop off and pickup, which has made our first 2 years of daycare journey comfortable. Thank you to all the teachers and staff, we will miss you all
We absolutely love this centre.
After changing over from our last centre, we noticed an incredible difference in my sons behaviour. He was quick to settle, and form bonds with the educators and every afternoon he comes home happy & calm, whereas at our previous centre he would come home grumpy, tired & clingy.
I believe this is a great credit to Jan & her beautiful educators. Its quite clear that Jan takes great care in selecting the most competent, kind & compassionate staff for her centre, and this has had a direct positive impact on my son, it's obvious to me that he receives consistent care and genuine connection during his days here and as a result has absolutely flourished at this centre in a matter of weeks.
Thank you Jan & all the girls ❤

Honestly love this childcare centre, all three of my children have been there. I cannot fault the educators, their consistency and the over love/care they all have for my boys.
We love sending out little one to Good Start Currumbin Waters. The staff are so friendly and caring, the centre is clean and well presented. The daily update with photos of what the kids have been up to is wonderful. And our daughter truely loves going each day.
My daughter has been attending Aussie Kindies for 1 1/2 years and she is thriving.
The centre is beautiful and has been recently refurbished.
Jan and her amazing team of educators always ensure to go above and beyond supporting my daughter grow and learn.
My daughter absolutely loves attending and the educators are always so friendly, welcoming and genuine.
We receive daily updates of the many activities and photos of the day which is a really beautiful touch.
I can’t recommend Aussie Kindies enough.

Fantastic kindy, I would highly recommend to anyone I know. The educators put in 110% it's been a wonderful experience sending my son to good start. I couldn't be happier with my child's development whilst at good start. Thank you
Best day care centre on the Gold Coast! Cannot fault this centre! We have experienced 3 other centres in the past and this kindy is another level.
My two boys have attended there for over 2 years and we are so pleased with their services.
All of the educators are fantastic never had any problems with any of them, the Director is super friendly and accommodating, the food is great, the rooms are always clean and you will never see a child crying alone!
They have a super fun arts and crafts room in their big play yard that has a lovely educator that does all sorts of cool activities with them and they do heaps of nature play there too!

Aussie Kindies Tugun is the best daycare for my two year old. He has so much fun and I know he's well looked after. He is excited to go and loves hanging out with the teachers in his room. The staff are very friendly and very good at their jobs, they offer a range of fun and age appropriate learning activities and some really cool incursions. The centre is always clean and organised and the playground and outdoor areas are well maintained. Aussie Kindies Tugun has a lovely family feel & I recommend it to other parents in the area.
I've had at least one child attending Aussie Kindies for the last 3 years. I've always found the staff to be very warm and friendly, and dedicated to the kids. They have heaps of fun incursions scheduled through the week like music, and interactive shows, and sports. My kids and I love Aussie Kindies Tugun!
The educators here are seriously one in a million. Caring, nurturing and loving. Always happy to see us and communicate with us daily whether it’s positive or something constructive they need to bring to our attention or require support with. They’re all very understanding and flexible when our circumstances change. You feel like you’re a part of their family and they become a valued part of yours. We’re so glad we found Aussie Kindies Tugun! No more tears at drop off because the kids LOVE being there!
My son loves going. The staff treat each child like their own. Love the relaxed, happy vibes. Maddy is extremely helpful and always greets with a warm smile. They really take into account each child and treat them accordingly. Highly recommended!
Our daughter is still in care at Aussie Kindies, but our son also attended Aussie Kindies from 15mths to 5.5yo. What fun they have here, with the resources, new playgrounds and the (free) shows they have in. They’ve both made so many amazing friends and had the best educators along the way... sad to think it’s our last year (with my daughter off to school next year). We’ll be forever grateful to all the staff who have loved and cared for our children and helped make them who they are. They’ve been awesome. Highly recommend Aussie Kindies Currummbin Waters.
Aussie kids Tugun is amazing! We couldn’t ask for a better place to care for and educate our 2 year old. The staff are always great with their communication and the smile Pippa has when she sees everyone, makes it so much easier to be a working Mum. Keep up the great work!! We even moved and drive further but won’t change her day care cause she loves it so much! If anyone is needing a place to send their little ones on the southern gold coast then this is it!
A great Childcare Centre with amazing facilities, food & nappies provided, but most importantly amazing caring educators.
Upmarket little shopping square favoured by Cammeray locals. Has an excellent Harris Farm, top notch butchers, great coffee and gelato, hairdressers and nail bar, couple of great restaurants, a bakery, also houses the pharmacy and doctors/dental surgery. Plus a gorgeous boutique. Parking underneath can be pricey if you go over 2 hours though.
I come here quite a bit as my mums Dr, Dentist and Douglas Hanly Moir pathology has rooms there so we go about once a month. Apart from all the services available there is also some interesting eaterys, cafes, a butcher, harris markets, chemist , haidresser, a speciality shop and a few others. I like it . There are a number of disabled parking spots which is great but the downside is the parking is only 2 hrs free and after that $20, which means not alot of time to linger over a coffee and a cake.
Staff are so committed and passionate about children. the centre has an amazing environment, just by Currumbin creek and we love the outdoor experiences offered to children.
After having an awful experience at a previous daycare centre, we are so happy to have found the Aussie Kindies Tugun family! Honestly the most amazing team of ladies (and a few men). They adore both of our children so much and my kids have never been sad to attend. Could not recommend Aussie Kindies Tugun enough! Extremely good quality childcare that feels like you are leaving your children with family. They are extremely professional, reliable and go above and beyond to make the centre amazing.
I love the variety of shops they have here. They have Harris Farm which has wide range of organic and good quality produce, plants and cool selections of breads. They have butcher shop that offers different cuts of quality meats, including great quality produce too :) they have different restaurant and cafe to choose from
Good Tesla charger. Charged up here. The Harris Farm is the most expensive grocery store I've seen in Syd. The produce is average. 2 hours free parking is nice.
My son started at Currumbin Waters a year and a half ago. He loves it. The staff make him feel so safe and happy while he is there. The activities they do are so impressive to help him develop in all areas. Everyday I leave knowing that my baby is well looked after. For a mum that’s important!
A nice intimate little shopping centre with the generic basics. The courtyard approach is quite appealing and has its charm for the neighbourhood living above. Has essentially all your needs and works pretty well, with a few restaurants along the outskirts and more coming.
There are many reasons this wonderful daycare center exceeds national quality standards, the main one being its fantastic educators.
As soon as we went for a look around, we knew this was where our baby was meant to be.
Every one of the educators goes above and beyond on a daily basis.
They are all so kind and friendly. When we ask our little one his favorite part of the day, he always mentions the educators names.
I wouldn't hesitate recommending our centre to anyone.
Do yourself a favour and go and see for yourself.

Lovely.
Coco Nail Bar will now be my second home!!! Amazing owners, stunning decked out place & definitely an experience like no other to get your nails did!! Worth every second!!! Already excited to go back!! #InLove
