Gumleaf Gully Childcare Centre

Testimonials

The team at Gumleaf Gully have been so caring and welcoming.  Everyone feels like family and the tenure at the centre shows it is a special place to be.  Our little ones adjusted easily because of the nurturing environment.  The focus on outdoors and the environment and wildlife has been a lovely inclusion.  Gumleaf Gully makes leaving your little ones much easier knowing they will be supported by such kind and helpful carers and educators. –

Gumleaf has become a second family to our two children, and every single staff member has been welcoming from the start. The team here are clearly passionate about each child and their wellbeing and learning. The girls have so much fun they sometimes don’t want to come home!

Gumleaf Gully is a nurturing, supportive and connected community where our daughter has thrived. She has developed beautiful bonds with her educators and peers, is learning every day, and she is so comfortable and at ease it’s as though she’s with family. We are very lucky to be part of such a special community! -

To all the educators, I cannot praise you all enough. My gorgeous Tyler has so much fun and I love the photos and videos. I’m a retired teacher, who has gone back part time and when I see how hard you all work I am in awe of you all. Please know that from the bottom of my heart your beautiful teaching does not go unnoticed. I live in NSW so I only get up there a few times a year. I’m particularly grateful that you were able to put Tyler in an extra day a week to help Jacqueline. I will be up there before and after Tyler’s little brother is born. I look forward to seeing you all to thank you in person. -

After looking at so many childcare centres we thought we’d never find somewhere comfortable, safe, and sweet little girl. Then we found Gumleaf. Family friendly, heart- centred, a team who are genuine carers. We are so pleased to call Gumleaf our home away from home. Watching our daughter play so happily and healthily is a joy. Thank you for our years of friendship and care.

One of our favourite things about Gumleaf Gully is how much nature play the children get. Our son - like so many children - is curious about the world around him. At Gumleaf the educators are always trying to incorporate outdoor activities into the children's everyday learning, from painting with leaves, to caring for the resident lizard, to respecting water and insects. It's instilling in him a gentle love of the outdoors & all living creatures, which reflects our values as a family too. We love the diversity of the educators - their cultural & linguistic diversity, the spread of age and experience, their unique skills and talents spanning art, music, sport, science and creative play. We are very grateful for the respect shown to our First Nations peoples and the early insights our children get into First Nations language, culture and worldview. Gumleaf Gully really feels like an extension of our family and we are so grateful to be a part of the community.

As a mobile speech therapist, Gumleaf Gully is one of my favourite childcare centres to visit. The staff at this centre are some of the most kind and caring childcare staff I have worked alongside. They are so gentle, loving, and respectful with the children and with each other. The children’s big emotions are handled with grace and compassion, and they take advantage of every opportunity to teach the children how to be kind, confident and respectful with both peers and educators. Gumleaf Gully is a very inclusive environment, and the staff are all very eager to learn how they can implement inclusive practices as much as they can, whether it be neurodiversity, disability, or cultural and linguistic diversity. The staff at this centre go above and beyond when it comes to creating fun and enjoyable learning experiences for the children. I would happily send my children to this childcare centre.
