Stories from the Ranges

Highly recommended childcare centre. One kid attended ELC and another one is still in ITC. Positives: + high quality education component, they did science week even for 1.5 years old; + very friendly educators that help parents to deal with difficult times (Trudy, Kara, we love you!); + frequent updates about the kids routines (food, toilet, sleep); + meals are cooked on premises and seem nutritious (at least from description). The rooms and outdoor areas look unusual for a childcare centre, but kids enjoy every moment of it.

I can't speak highly enough about The Ranges. This place has exceeded all my expectations for a childcare center. The staff's genuine care for the children is evident, and it's clear that they prioritize safety, education, and emotional well-being.
The facilities are clean, organized, and equipped with everything kids need to learn and play. The outdoor play area is a hit with my child, providing them with a chance to burn off energy and enjoy the fresh air. A special mention to the Kate for being so amazing.
Five stars without a doubt!

As a new parent I was thrilled to share my outstanding experience at The Ranges.
From the very moment I walked into the childcare center for a tour, I was greeted with warmth and genuine care. Sam's presence exudes a sense of comfort and assurance. The staff where very friendly and the team answered all my questions. As a new parent its nerve-wrecking when your child is going to a care for the first time.
If you're searching for a childcare provider who goes above and beyond, look no further than The Ranges.

The Ranges ITC is a fantastic childcare centre. The staff are very helpful and friendly, and everyone always greets my son as soon as he walks through the door. I love knowing that my son is well cared for while I'm at work, and I don't have to stress or worry about him. I highly recommend this centre.

The Ranges has dedicated and highly qualified staff that place a huge emphasis on not only care, but education in the early years. The qualified teachers provide amazing inquiry project and indoor/outdoor learning. My sons confidence and interest in learning has been amazing during his time at the centre. We can not thank the amazing staff enough.
