What the parents say
What the parents say
I have been so impressed with Kool Kidz Preston. My son has been attending for the past 12 months and has always been extremely well looked after. It has all the latest learning and educational programs and a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities. The food is excellent and the staff are attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend this centre.
Cristina - parent
Can't speak of this place highly enough. I've been taking my 2 year old there for the past year and he absolutely loves it. He is constantly asking when his going back to Kool Kidz. He has grown and developed in leaps and bounds since we began taking him there. The staff really make an effort to make the kids feel comfortable and get them settled in a new environment. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a new, clean, child focused, we'll set up and managed centre.
Lisa - parent
It’s been a great pleasure dealing with a professional team. Compassion and love they have for kids is amazing. Our son Ayansh really enjoyed going there as he developed a loving bond with his educators. Once again thanks a lot for all your help and support.

Both Katherine and Francesca (owners) were amazing to deal with and assist promptly with any queries raised. The educators have been at Kool Kidz for many years which made class transitions easy. The meals provided every day were healthy and nutritious, knowing my kids ate at school was a relief as getting them to eat at home was hard. I was glad to have found Kool Kidz, we were there from the very opening of the centre and the quality of toys and playground facilities have been well maintained over the years. I highly recommend Kool Kidz Preston. Read more

I couldn't have found a better child care for my daughter. She has learnt so much, her beautiful personality is in many ways good care and learning from her excellent educators. Any concerns at all were always duly attended by the team. Aadya will definitely miss her educators, her friends here, but i'll miss them as well. I have been able to leave my daughter in their care without any worry, what more a parent could ask for. We will miss you Kool Kidz family. Read more

The owner Franchesca and Catherine went beyond their way to ensure we are comfortable with our son being there. The journey was not always about it being smooth and not having any issues-It’s about being supported through no matter what.I have to mention some wonderful educators who looked after my son and kept us informed as a parent and helped making sure my son is school ready. Eva T, Violeta, Dee, Crystal, was only few of them.Due to his last year kinder educator Eva my son was the only kid who could write a full sentence in his first term. You will make a good choice in selecting this child care.We were not local to the childcare but selected after going through and looking at a lot of facilities where kids are just a number. I wish them well in their journey to empowering families Read more
