Our daughter attended Fae's family daycare for only 4 months because we moved away from Sydney. I can honestly say that the prospect of saying goodbye to Fae and the vibrant, safe, nurturing space that she has created for the kids in her care almost made us change our minds and stay :( ! We saw a few daycares when looking for our 13 month old and knew straight away walking into Fae's that this was the place for us. Her space is very small especially compared to a large centre, but it never feels that way because everything is so thoughtfully maintained and arranged. Fae was so sensitive and inclusive to our unique needs and parenting style - I used to love getting photos at naptime of her physically holding our little one to sleep ! What really deepened my trust and respect for Fae was observing her with the children at pick up and drop off - how authentically affectionate she was, what a joyful and positive influence she is, and most importantly how she treated them all the same, noticing their differences and somehow watching all of them at the same time ! She really genuinely cares about the kids she looks after and I send her updates about our daughter even after we've moved away - I was very moved that she requested that. I saw that she maintained friendships with the parents of her kids, for long after they finished care and often siblings would then attend as well. I love the way she sets boundaries in a kind and skilful way with the kids, and saw how comfortable that made them around her. I would recommend Fae's in a heartbeat to any parent but especially parents of younger babies having their first daycare experience, or children who for whatever reason would benefit from more one on one attention. My only complaint is that she's set the bar too high and now we can't find anywhere half as good :/ Read more

We've known Fae for almost 10 years now as she cared for both my children from before they could walk right through to starting kindy. Over that time she was like a second mother to them and has become a close friend to us as well. Fae has the brightest smile and a genuine love and affection, not only for children, but people in general, that comes through in every thing that she does. There was never a day where my kids didn't want to go to daycare. She has had such a positive affect on their personalities through enveloping them in a caring, nurturing and supportive environment, and teaching them how to share, care for & support friends & family, having fun, exploring the world & laughing all the while. Fae is the right choice if you want your child to thrive within a nurturing and caring environment. Read more

Fae is an absolute superstar who clearly loves her job and cares for the children like they are her own. The encouraging learning environment Fae provides is beautifully adapted to develop each child's skills, discover their interests and become confident and caring kids ready to tackle life's challenges. I always knew I could drop my son at school and feel confident that he would have focused and nurturing care rather than get lost in a crowd of children like I have seen happen in the bigger centres. My son came away from his time with Fae with aspects of his personality so wonderfully strengthened and watching him thrive has been really sweet. My only problem is now I have to try and find care that compares to our experience with Fae and it is obvious that she is truly one in a million. Read more
