Papilio Early Learning Sherwood Reviews

We are absolutely thrilled with our experience at Papilio Sherwood Early Learning Centre for our daughter! From the moment we enrolled her, we were impressed by the warmth and professionalism of the staff. The educators create a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment where our daughter has blossomed. The activities are engaging and well-structured, helping her develop socially. We love the focus on building confidence, creativity, and independence. Communication is excellent, and we always feel well-informed about the changes and updates within the centre. It’s clear that the team genuinely cares about the children and their development. We couldn’t be happier with our choice and highly recommend Papilio Sherwood to any parent looking for a wonderful start to their child’s educational journey!

Honestly the Papilio Sherwood center is incredible. The Manager & staff are also Amazing with the kids and i love that they do small things well. Highly recommended.

We recently moved back to area and inspected 6 different centres to try and find the best fit for us. Our little ones were instantly comfortable at Papilio Sherwood even from just touring the centre, and I believe that’s a true testament to how welcoming and caring the staff are. We have now been here for a few months and I can say it has been such a wonderful experience. We are regularly updated with our a child’s activities throughout the day which is super comforting. The staff at this centre really are incredible and we are so thankful to them

Absolutely amazing experience. Beautiful staff and centre. Couldn’t wish for a better place to send my child

The management and educators at Papilio have made our transition to daycare super easy, I always know that my son is being taken care of and having so much fun while I’m at work!

We have recently transitioned here from another centre. It has been a very easy and smoothe transition for us. The staff are very friendly, make quick bonds with children and communicate well with parents. The management team seem to be supportive and involved with the educators and the children. There is a very friendly and positive atmosphere and the staff seem genuinely happy to be at work and with the kids. Generally it is a very calm playful atmosphere when we are there for pickup or dropoff.

We love this daycare and having been with them now for 7 years as both our kids have attended Papilio..Both our children have had very special bonds with the staff and we have loved seeing this over the years..

We recently moved our son to this centre and it has been the best thing we have ever done!! Amazing educators, fantastic resources and activities, and the level of communication is unmatched. I honestly wish we had moved him here sooner. Can't recommend it enough!

The best daycare ever! Fantastic staff and management, as they truly care about your child as an individual and as a collective. My daughter has special needs and they are fantastic at taking care of her, as well as including her in activities with all children. They are on-top of her medical needs and show her so much love, as well as the other children. The children all are included and safe! I couldn’t go to another daycare after being at this one!

The level of care and support my son and I received at Papilio Early Learning Sherwood has been incredible, especially from Michelle, the Centre Manager. She made my son’s transition to daycare so much easier by allowing us to visit daily for playdates until he felt comfortable. When he finally started, Michelle personally looked after him, despite her busy schedule, ensuring he was doing well. The staff and educators are also incredibly friendly and welcoming. I'm so grateful for the experience!

My son has attended Papillio for over a year now and my daughter just started a few weeks ago in the nursery. Overall we’ve had a great experience and the current staff are wonderful. My son is always happy to go and each time we pick him up you can tell he’s had a great day. My daughter’s transition to the nursery has been seamless and lead educator Kim made that possible. She’s very attentive and loving, making it easy to leave my little one with her. I am very appreciative of Papillio!

Rate 1 star as the Lead Educator Kim in Nursery is unprofessional and rude. She is incapable of exercising professionalism and is a giant power tripper she says things to parents about "exercising positive relationships" yet she is incapable of exercising positive relationships at work. She is toxic to other educators and she is a big power tripper. She bosses people around yet she works as little as she can. I would never want my young child in her care. She needs education on her own mannerisms and she needs to practice what she preaches. Do not need that toxic energy.

Finding a childcare centre is a daunting experience, Papilio Sherwood’s manager Belinda made the enrolment process smooth and easy and welcomed unlimited play and stays to ease the transition for both my child and myself. All staff were welcoming, accomodating and helpful.

Staff are very rude , food given to children is not healthy specially fruits are not fresh . In morning tea there are process food . Not impress Stay away

Papilio Sherwood is an amazing daycare! The Centre Manager Sherrie is so wonderful to deal with and made us all feel welcome from day one. Our son has been attending for 1year now and we have seen him grow and learn so much already. The Educators are all friendly and welcoming. Facilities are great and we love that they have a separate playground for the toddlers. They are always providing the children with great experiences and fun activities. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I've worked with kids with disabilities for the past 16 years, so when it came time to choose a daycare centre for my own daughter, I felt confident I knew what to look for in terms of a quality environment. I made in-person visits to nine different daycare centres around the area, and Papilio (formerly TLC) was the easiest decision I could have hoped for! The things I looked for were - Are the staff friendly, caring, and enjoying their work, does the environment feel warm and homely, are the children receiving individual attention, are the children engaged, and most importantly - are the children HAPPY and having FUN? ALL of those were HUGE ticks ✅✅✅ at Papilio!!! The lovely Centre Manager Sherrie is always organised and professional, but her caring nature and warmth really shine through above all her other great traits. Exactly the same for Chloe, who the kids adore and always has time for a friendly chat, despite always working hard for our beloved kiddies. Sherrie and Chloe are very selective with the staff they employ, and I haven't met a single staff member that isn't lovely, warm, caring, and attentive. They're ALL absolutely amazing human beings, and I can't recommend Papilio strongly enough! Five stars doesn't do a review of this home away from home justice. ALL THE STARS!!!

Highly recommend Papilio Early Learning Sherwood. We have recently moved to the area and went through the daunting task of finding our boys a new centre. Sherrie is incredible and has helped us settle into the community. All of the educators are friendly and provide exceptional care. We are kept updated daily on the fun and engaging activities provided. The kindergarten program is the best we have seen and in the short 2 months we have been attending my son has excelled.

TLC has such a fabulous team of caring educators. The team in the nursery are kind and caring, and put our minds at ease from day 1 when our 9month old started attending. Highly recommend TLC Sherwood!

My daughter has attended the centre for 2 years now and I have nothing but amazing things to say about the management, educators and the centre itself! The school readiness program has been incredible and has made the transition across to prep easy for both myself and my daughter. 100% recommend TLC Sherwood!

Wonderful and supportive centre, great facilities and educators who have made us feel very welcome into a lovely community.
