What Parents Say About Us
BEL is a brilliant place for kids to develop their social skills. In the BEL is awesome outdoor playground and indoor rooms are equipped with lots of variety toys, furniture and things which help kids develop this independence, imagination and creativity. The educators are young ,active and positive and I can be calm about kids supervision. The most valuable is that fact that my toddler every morning including weekends is grabbing his bag and asks if he is going to BEL 🥰. I definitely recommend this place👍
Maria, Brooke and the educators are absolutely amazing. I have been part of the BEL for a year now and when my little girl started at 2& 6months they made us feel so welcoming especially my daughter who had a bit of separation anxiety they helped her so much in so many ways I can not fault the team AMAZING and Brooke goes beyond to help in any kind of way. Will be sad to leave next year keep up the amazing work guys appreciate you all
We absolutely love BEL! The educators are beyond amazing, they have helped my daughter settle in so fast and they genuinely care about building relationships with the children and their families to make sure the children feel comfortable. My daughter loves going and loves socialising with her little friends and her educators. The director is also so kind and really cares about the children and families that attend the centre. She goes above and beyond to make sure you have the best experience at the service ☺️
We highly recommend Beginnings Early Learners. I didn't realise we would be so happy after moving my daughter to this centre. She is a lot happier and does not seem to be upset when I leave. She is always excited to see me when I pick her up, but she never wants to go, always playing and showing me her adventures. The staff are lovely. Their communication is excellent, and we especially love all the photos on the Story Park app. You don’t feel so far away. My daughter is learning so much faster. Her understanding of her surroundings has improved. BEL is a team you can trust. I have no regrets at all about moving my daughter here
Highly recommend Beginnings Early Learning. My son started the kinder year half way through as we moved to Sunbury and he has thrived so much. They have taken my shy little boy and made him into a more confident and social little boy. He loves going everyday and adores his teacher. All the staff are friendly and you can tell they genuinely care about the children which is a big plus. Also the outside yard is shared which is great as you see siblings playing together and the older kids helping looking after the younger kids creating bonds.
Staff are very friendly and have gone above and beyond for our family. My 2 children from different age groups can spend lots of time together in the shared yard which we love and has also really helped my youngest child's transition into care. Staff are always sharing lots of photos and updates throughout the day, especially on a Wednesday when they are participating in the weekly dance class happy feet! My kids have created lots of friends and we've gained a greater sense of community from being involved in the centre. Would recommend to anyone seeking a happy environment for their little ones.

Our daughter has been going to BEL since she is one and we have loved our experience there as a family for over two years now. The educators are incredible: caring, supportive, and focused on the children's growth and safety. What I love most about the centre is that I feel like my child connects with each of the teachers. It fills me with confidence that she's being cared for and loved while I'm at work. The activities challenge her, she's making lovely little pals and they offer amazing food for the kids. I couldn't recommend BEL enough!
