What the parents say
What the parents say
I’ve had my daughter at the day care for the past 2 years and highly recommend it to all parents. My child's experiences and mine have been absolutely incredible with the treatment from the staff. They are very experienced and very caring. I’m so impressed and extremely satisfied to the point my second child will also be going there. Thank you so much toddler ink for the great experience we’ve had.
Mandy Ajami
I am extremely happy to recommend Toddlers Ink. My son has been attending the last few months and the staff have put in so much effort to settle him in. As it is the first time that he has been away from me i was worried it would take him a long time to settle. With the patience of the educators and their genuine care for my son, he settled quickly and loves going each week. The staff are friendly, highly experienced and it is obvious that they love being educators. The atmosphere is positive and the children are always relaxed, happy and actively engaged in activities. The food always smells delicious and my son who is a very picky eater will always eat his meals at toddlers Ink.
Libby Rumsey
Such a beautiful environment for children. The staff are all very professional yet warm and caring. You can feel they genuinely care about your child. My daughter is always happy and has so much to tell me about all her experiences throughout the day. Plus the chef makes such good meals, I never have to worry about my daughter being hungry… it’s such a comforting feeling knowing that you can trust your child is in the best of care. Love Toddlers Ink.

It took me 2.5 years to be comfortable to leave my son with anyone as he has been with me and his father everyday since birth. So I knew putting him in daycare would be hard for us all. The educators and director were and are amazing, very re assuring and comforting, they not only cater to my son and The other kids every needs but also reassured me they would take good care of him. Since starting these my son’s speech ,phonics and numeracy skills developed so fast and learnt so much new stuff. The preschool program is amazing. The team is amazing. Highly recommend the centre and the staff is beyond amazing. Very happy I chose to place my son there.

Dropping my kids off to the most trusted people and place I know. I have tried other childcare before and this place is the best. I have had both kids go through since they were two and sad that this will be my last year! This place hands down was god sent.
Rhoda Chaalan
I’ve had two boys go through different childcare centres and I have to say my experience with toddlers ink with my 3rd child is without a doubt far outweighs the rest. The carers are amazing and will always give you and your child the time of day. I’ve popped in at various times unannounced and the kids are always chirpy and so invested in their different activities. My son has a speech pathologist who comes in weekly and she’s even praised how wonderful the centre and carers are. The centre is small but with my little one it was exactly what I was after. I did not want a large modernised centre in which my child would get lost in or overwhelmed. When you enter, you can see and feel the love and learning that takes place. Does not feel artificial or fake. Every incident that happens is reported, even a little scratch on the knee. Knowing that my son wants to come to childcare and is happy is all I could ask for.

About the curriculum
About the curriculum
With different rooms for different age groups, the educators at Toddlers Ink Children’s Learning Centre Ashfield tailor the curriculum to the individual needs of the children. The curriculum includes a range of different activities and experiences designed to help the children reach each developmental milestone to the best of their ability. The educators set goals for the children across their social, emotional, cognitive and physical development and then provide challenging activities to help the children progress.
The preschool children also participate in a school readiness program. Developed by an Educator with a Bachelor of Teaching, the children participate in play, structured learning, interest based activities, experiments, projects and more. The educators work with the children to develop the skills they will need to step confidently into “big school”.

Our son Freddie has been at Toddler's Ink Ashfield since he was 11 months old and sometimes I think he'd rather be at daycare than at home with his parents! He is so well-loved, cared for and challenged to develop his ever-growing skills physically, mentally, emotionally and socially every day. We are beyond grateful to the high calibre staff who delight and provoke the curiosity of our three-year old and to the individual knowledge they bring to his care. Gabriella the centre manager is one of the main reasons this centre is so outstanding - she gives her all to the kids and their learning, and connects with the parents in a genuinely caring way.
