Families

What Simba families say

Really happy with Simba Education Macquarie Park. The educators are warm, attentive, and genuinely care. They adapt to my child's routine and even adjust toys and activities to help him settle. I've also seen great growth in his language and numeracy skills. He loves to express himself and comes home every day excited to share what's happened at the centre. He is now able to recognise his name, has started showing real interest in reading books since attending Simba, and even counts how many toys he has while playing. The leadership team is also very responsive, always providing prompt replies to any requests. The environment supports independence and curiosity, and most importantly, my child feels loved, safe, and emotionally supported. Highly recommend!

Simba Education Macquarie Park has been a wonderful experience for our family. The teachers are kind, attentive and always engaging with the children in meaningful ways. The centre environment is safe, clean and full of stimulating activities. I especially want to highlight Director Jie, who is exceptional. She is professional, well-organised and truly dedicated to running the centre at a high standard. Her communication with parents is always timely and thoughtful, and she goes out of her way to ensure every child feels valued and supported. We are very grateful to have found this centre — highly recommended!

Choosing Simba for our child has been one of the best decisions we have made. The learning style encourages children to explore and express themselves in their own way, and we have seen a beautiful growth in confidence and creativity in our child. We love receiving daily photos and updates from the educators, it gives us peace of mind knowing our child is happy, settled, and enjoying their day. Simba offers many wonderful experiences, including language, sports, and music. The Centre director is very friendly and approachable, which makes such a difference. Thank you to the amazing team at Simba. We highly recommend this Centre — a happy parent.

I am so happy that I chose Simba for my daughter. After attending another centre where I felt the care and educational program were lacking, moving to Simba was the best decision for our family. My daughter settled in so quickly, which honestly surprised me, and she genuinely enjoys going to day care. The staff are all incredibly kind, caring and attentive, and the director is so warm, supportive and approachable. You can really feel that the educators truly care about the children and create a safe, nurturing and welcoming environment. I've noticed such a positive difference in my daughter since starting here, and I feel very grateful to have found a centre I can genuinely trust and feel comfortable with. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a caring and supportive childcare centre!

Great centre, the owners are always present and engage with kids and parents. Educators are very nice, our son loves it there and wants to go visit the chickens and rabbits every morning. Super happy we discovered this place!

We absolutely love Simba Education. The facilities are amazing, with bright, spacious indoor areas and a huge outdoor space with plenty of shade. The educators are fantastic, so kind, experienced, and genuinely caring.

Making the move to Simba has been incredible. The change in my almost 4yr old with his engagement, learning and discussions on his day have helped me learn more about him. The amazing staff have fabulous experience and have a focus on mindfulness and inclusion.
