What People Are Saying
-
“Skye is such a warm, welcoming and inclusive community. The people is what makes it for us. The educators are fantastic - so committed. Communication is excellent. I also love the extra programs they provide (bush kinder, music therapy, etc). Our cook and menu is amazing and nutritious. Also love the opportunity to get to meet other families in our local area. Our children love going there - so grateful we found Skye. Even with some new closer centres popping up now nearer to our home we would not consider leaving our Skye community.”

“We are so happy to be part of the Skye community - the educators and management are so caring and qualified and there is great staff retention. Our daughter truly loves the educators (and all her little friends as well) and is always made to feel so welcome and nurtured (as are we). We have been attending now for three years and it has been lovely seeing her develop and thrive there over this time. We like that being a Co-Operative we can be involved and that it has a real community feel. There is a great variety of stimulating activities and programs (Music, Bush Kinder, Sports, Auslan etc), a commitment to inclusivity, culture and environment, a delicious and nutritious menu from our Cook and we really appreciate the communications - both in person and via storypark. We have whole-heartedly recommended Skye to many of our friends and feel so grateful our child can access such wonderful care and education.”

“Skye Children's Co-operative is a fantastic childcare and kinder service. The centre is very welcoming and warm, and the educators and admin are wonderful people. They go beyond expectations in the care of the children, and the love that they give them. It is a truly inclusive, positive, and stimulating environment where children are encouraged to learn through play, and always keeping in mind to be respectful and kind to the environment and to others. They provide activities like bush kinder, sports, music and Auslan in a way that keep the children engaged. The menu is very varied and nutritious and made fresh in the centre. Being a small centre, I feel like it's easy for the staff to know all the children and so the children will always feel in a trusted environment. Highly recommended.”
