A Loving and Nurturing Place for Our Son to Thrive
Enrolling our son at Little Locals, Auchenflower, has been one of the best and most reassuring choices we’ve made as parents. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt a genuine sense of warmth, professionalism, and care — and that feeling has only grown stronger with time.
Our son has flourished in both the Nursery Room and Toddler 1 Room. The transition between rooms was incredibly smooth, thanks to the thoughtful support and gentle approach of the educators. Every team member we've encountered has shown such dedication, patience, and kindness — they truly go above and beyond to create a safe and joyful environment for every child.
We are especially grateful for the centre’s bilingual staff, which has introduced our son to new languages in a fun and natural way. It's such a valuable opportunity at this early age, and we’ve noticed how excited he is by new words and sounds. This kind of early exposure is something we really cherish.
A heartfelt thank you to Amalia, who leads the Toddler 1 Room with incredible warmth and energy. That said, we genuinely can’t single out just one person — the entire team is fantastic. From Nursery to Toddler 1 and beyond, the educators are not only skilled and caring, but truly beautiful people who treat each child with love and respect.
We also love the creativity and variety in the daily programming. Themed days are a huge highlight for our son, and he always comes home full of stories, songs, and excitement. The centre also hosts special events for families, which we absolutely adore — they make us feel connected, included, and part of a truly wonderful community.
And we can’t forget the delicious, nutritious meals! Our son eats so well at daycare, and we’re so impressed by the quality and variety of food provided. It’s such a comfort knowing he’s not only enjoying his meals but also being introduced to healthy eating habits in such a positive way.
Under the leadership of Jan, the centre runs with warmth, integrity, and a deep commitment to both children and families. Her approach sets the tone for everything — and it shows.
The centre itself is clean, bright, and thoughtfully designed to support both learning and play. The outdoor space is a huge favourite for our son, and it’s clear he feels completely at home here.
The communication is also outstanding. We love receiving daily updates, photos, and reflections — they help us feel connected to our son’s day and reassure us that he is safe, happy, and thriving.
Little Locals, Auchenflower, has become so much more than just a daycare — it’s a second home for our son, and a place where he is truly known, supported, and celebrated. We are so grateful to be part of this beautiful community and couldn’t recommend it more highly to other families.
