My two children absolutely love Good Hands Childcare Centre, and I would highly recommend it to my friends! The teachers are all long-term employees; they are all very loving and professional. Lilian, Sunhee, and Tarima are attentive and patient with the children, know them very well, and promptly provide feedback and suggestions regarding the children's progress. The centre also organizes a variety of activities based on the seasons and holidays; my children especially love the water activities in the summer. There are also birthday parties and field trips, and I can feel how happy the children are here. The directors, Mary and Mahsid, are very friendly and respectful to the grandparents and other elderly people who don't speak English. They communicate with them in various ways, making the elderly people who help care for the children from a foreign land feel warm and welcome. I wholeheartedly agree with Mary and Mahsid's philosophy of nurturing children with love and a wealth of activities, and I hope more children can come here to experience love and grow happily.

We are so glad we chose Good Hands Child Care Centre!

When my son, Lucas Wu, first started kindergarten, he could barely speak English. As parents, we were very worried about whether he could adapt to the new environment and whether he would lack confidence due to the language barrier. However, the principal and every teacher gave him a lot of patience, care, and encouragement. They never neglected him because of his language barrier but helped him integrate into the class step by step.

With the teachers' companionship and guidance, Lucas has changed a lot. He can now communicate more and more confidently in English, has made many good friends, and loves going to kindergarten more and more, happily sharing what happened at school every day. Seeing him gradually adapt to group life and become more cheerful and confident makes us very happy.

The teachers here are not only professional and responsible but also truly care about the growth of each child. They pay attention to the child's emotions, personality, and individual differences, which makes parents feel very at ease. The principal is also always very kind and conscientious, patiently communicating with parents about any questions they may have, making us feel that this is a team full of love and responsibility.

Thank you so much to all the teachers at Good Hands Child Care Centre for your continued dedication and care. We are extremely satisfied with everything here and hope that the teachers will continue to help Lucas grow further in language, learning, social skills, and independence.

We highly recommend Good Hands Child Care Centre to every family looking for a kindergarten for their child. We believe children will find joy, friendship, and growth here!

We had such a wonderful experience with Good Hands Childcare.

My son attended another centre for over a year, and he never truly settled. Every morning was difficult—he would cry and struggle to go in. It was really hard for us as parents to see that.

Then we moved him to Good Hands, and everything changed from day one. The very first day we brought him in, he loved it—and when it was time to go home, he didn’t even want to leave! It honestly felt like magic.

I truly believe what makes this centre special is the love and care they give to every child. You can feel it the moment you walk in, and the kids respond to it.

A big thank you to Mashid, Sunny, and the whole team. You are truly the best educators, and we’re so grateful for everything you’ve done for our son.

We had such a wonderful experience at Good Hands. My girls loved going here. The staff are so kind and caring, and you really do feel like your child is in 'good hands' when you drop them off. They plan exciting and stimulating activities for the children to enjoy, and there is a welcoming feel as soon as you walk through the door. The educators care so much about the children and the experience they have here. They keep you up to date with communication and I can't recommend Good Hands enough. Thanks so much for caring for my girls and providing them with a wonderful experience.

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and for placing your trust in our centre. It means the world to us to know that you had such a positive experience during your time with us.We’re especially proud of the stability and consistency within our team of educators, and we’re so glad that this gave you and your daughter a strong sense of comfort and connection. Creating a safe, familiar, and caring environment is at the heart of everything we do.Thank you again for your kind words and for recommending our centre so warmly. It was truly a joy to have your daughter with us, and your continued support means so much to our team.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone at Good Hands Child Care Centre for the kindness and support they have shown our daughter over the past few years. When we migrated to Australia two years ago, Mashid welcomed us with open arms, even going so far as to organize a birthday celebration for our daughter before we had even enrolled her in the daycare.

At first, my kid faced challenges adjusting to her new environment, including the language barrier and the transition to a new home and country. However, with the patience, care, and warmth of the Good Hands team, she gradually felt secure, supported, and encouraged. Within a few months, we witnessed a remarkable transformation—she became more confident, engaged, and happy.

Today, she has many friends and communicates effortlessly, a testament to the nurturing environment at Good Hands. I am truly delighted that we chose this centre for her early years, and I wholeheartedly recommend Good Hands Child Care Centre to any parent looking for a caring and supportive environment for their child.

I cannot recommend Good Hands enough.

The educators are absolutely wonderful. They have been patient and persistent with their efforts in building my son’s social skill set. He has grown from a shy baby to a beautiful young boy and the credit goes to Good Hands. A big shout out to Mahshid, Sunhee, Mojdeh and every other educators who have played an instrumental role in Varadh’s overall development. You know your child loves his childcare when he insists on going on weekends. Thank you again for all your efforts.

This is the most satisfying kindergarten I've ever had. Both of my children are there, and I feel very reassured. The teachers have all worked there for many years, and each one is incredibly patient. My children receive excellent care here. Mahshid, Lilian, and Sunnee are especially my children's favorite teachers. Also, every day when I pick my child up from school, she receives a warm hug from Principal Mary. It's truly a loving family!

I cannot recommend Good Hands enough!

The educators here are truly exceptional. Their love and patience have made such a positive impact on my child. From the moment we joined, my daughter felt welcomed and cared for, as if this were a second home. The educators go above and beyond to create a warm, nurturing environment where every child feels valued and supported. Their dedication and kindness shine through in everything they do, and it's clear they genuinely care about the well-being and growth of each child.

I am so grateful to have found a place where my daughter feels safe, happy, and loved. Thank you for making this such a special experience for our family!

Goodhands is an amazing childcare centre with a warm and nurturing environment. The educators are not only exceptionally professional and experienced but also genuinely caring and attentive to each child's needs. They work hard to make each day special for children - decorating for celebrations, organising birthday parties, planning exciting incursions and excursions, setting up water play on hot days, and creating engaging educational activities that spark curiosity and learning. Their commitment to providing both a joyful and enriching experience truly makes Goodhands a place where children love to learn and grow.
It brings me so much comfort knowing that while I am at work, my daughter is not only being well looked after but is also thriving in such a nurturing environment. Since joining Goodhands, she has become more confident and sociable, forming wonderful friendships and developing important skills that will benefit her for years to come. I see the same joy and growth in the other children as well, which is a testament to the dedication and care of the educators.
I wholeheartedly recommend Goodhands to any parent looking for a loving and enriching early childhood experience. A big thank you to the amazing team for all that you do!

We want to express my deepest gratitude to everyone at GoldHands for the kindness and support you have shown my son during this past year.

When we migrated to Australia a year ago, my son had a difficult start at his first preschool, Montessori at Turramurra.Unfortunately, he faced challenges and unfair treatment that made him feel unsafe, lonely, and depressed. As a parent, nothing is more important than seeing your child thrive, so we made the decision to find a new preschool where he could have a fresh start.

Then we found GoldHands, and everything changed. At first, he still struggled to adjust, especially since he could only speak Mandarin and couldn’t communicate in English. However, with time, patience, and the warmth of the staff, he began to feel cared for and encouraged. He made a few friends, and slowly but surely, he started to gain confidence in his new environment. As his English improved, so did his happiness and sense of belonging.

I truly believe that my son will always remember his first year in Australia with warmth and gratitude because of the care he received at GoldHands. Sometimes life is tough. A happy childhood is a precious gift—it builds resilience and strength that will help children face life’s challenges in the future. But a painful childhood can leave wounds that take a lifetime to heal. That’s why I deeply appreciate the love, patience, and encouragement you have given my son. You have not only helped him adapt but also given him beautiful memories that will stay with him forever.

A special thank you to Mashid, Sunhee, Tarima, Lillian, and so many other staff members who have made a difference in his life. Your dedication means the world to us.

Trust your feelings. Trust your child’s feelings. These feelings don’t lie—they will guide you to the right school. I hope every child has a happy childhood.

We are incredibly grateful to Goodhands Childcare Centre for providing such a nurturing and caring environment for our children. The peace of mind my husband and I feel knowing they are in good hands is invaluable, and we've also been introduced to a wonderful community of families.

After visiting nearly 10 different centres, we finally found a reliable, trustworthy, and warm place for our kids. Mahshid, the director, was especially helpful with her thoughtful approach to settling our children in—a method we hadn’t seen anywhere else. Goodhands is not just another childcare business; they genuinely care for and give attention to every child.

Thank you for being such an amazing centre for our family!

Both of my children are attending Goodhands and they are truly a great daycare centre. There is barely any staff turnover and all the educators genuinely enjoy their jobs.

I would like to thank Goodhands for taking care of and helping my two children. Sophie started school when she was two and a half years old. At that time, Sophie was timid and afraid of strangers. She cried for several weeks at first. However, with the care and encouragement of the teachers, Sophie is now lively and cheerful, and more curious about life. She will often ask us what the principles behind some phenomena are. Jeremy started school at the age of two and adapted immediately. The teacher will take him to different interests and hobbies, see what he likes, and then encourage the child to complete it on his own.
Goodhands attaches great importance to children's mental health, and often has some themes related to social phenomena or traditions of different countries to cultivate children's development in an all-round way.
In fact, I believe that many parents are most worried about their children's safety, because it is impossible for children to avoid injuries or conflicts with other children while playing. At this time, the handling methods and attitudes of teachers and schools are very important. However, you can’t ask these questions on a tour. Only when your children go to school will you slowly feel and understand things when they encounter problems.
In this regard, Goodhands is very responsible. Whether my two children fell down and were injured or had friction with other children, the teachers would take immediate measures and tell the parents. They never delay or shirk their responsibilities, and always take care of the children or resolve their conflicts as soon as possible.
Finally, this daycare is actually opened by the owner Mary for her five grandchildren to come to school, so you can often see the owner adding things to the daycare and caring about the teachers and children.
Hope my feedback can help you. Parents who want to send their babies to school should hurry up, this place is really good, and the waiting list will definitely get longer in the future.

I cannot recommend Good Hands enough! Our family have experienced a number of great daycares over our childrens early childhood but we found Good Hands for our youngest this year. It is a small group of kids run by engaging educators, who genuinely care about your child as an individual and their development. We have never felt so comfortable dropping off a little one because we know they will be cared for in a way that is as close to what they would get at home as you can get.

I would like to thank all the staffs of Good Hands, especially the Director Mary and Manager Mahshid, for their support during the tough time for my child when i moved her from the previous childcare which she hated. The environment is very friendly and warm like a second home. And the teachers and children in this childcare are very happy and cheerful. Teachers and the director communicate with each parent in a timely and patient manner. And they were knowledgeable and enthusiastic about my child in a short time so my daughter adapted to this new environment with their help in less than few days and helped us in toilet training in less than 1 month. Also, the distribution ratio between children and teachers is appropriate. Educators are permanent here therefore there are not casual educators around so the bond between educators and kids is amazing.
I wish my daughter would have started her childcare from day 1 here.

Good Hands is a brilliant place with warm, caring and professional staff. For obvious reason, I don't like places with high staff turnover. I believe all the educators were there for years which prove this is a good place to work as well. Whenever I go to the centre to pick my daughter up, I can tell from my daughter's and other children's face that they are really having so much fun at the centre. My daughter especially liked the spacious outdoor areas and water plays in hot summer days. I highly recommend Good Hands to parents looking for childcare in this area.
