World Leading Childcare now in Australia

My daughter started at North Star four weeks ago and after touring many centres in the area I was taken away buy my tour experience, all the staff were amazingly friendly to both myself and daughter, it was going to be my first time leaving my daughter in care and I felt right about this centre, I was nervous but happy that I had made the right choice buy choosing North Star, she has had the delight of being in the Reindeer room with some of the most humblest educators who she adores I was worried about her sleeping and eating as she is very set in her routine at home but they managed to get her to sleep and eating everything, as a first time day care mum I can’t say how impressed I have been, my daughter is loving it and looks forward to going her room leader Kaitlyn goes above and beyond to communicate with me through out the day calling me and sending me photos, the centre is so nice and clean I can not fault them I’m greatful to find such amazing centre with such great service and staff.

I’ve had my daughter on the waitlist for North Star since I first saw the signage on the new build. I’m so glad I waited for this centre. The rooms are gorgeous and the team are nothing short of amazing. Special shout out to the 3YO Kinder educators. My daughter has only been here for 2 weeks but it feels like she’s been here forever. She absolutely loves it!

North Star have continuously and consistently impressed us with their staff, their facilities and their philosophy. The premises incorporate themes from their Finnish educational model, indigenous Australia and the various cultures that make up our community. The environment doesn’t just nurture the kids who attend, but the whole community- with they have on-the-run emergency breakfasts for busy parents; a community pantry for struggling families; and collection points for local charities. The staff are experienced, knowledgeable and caring. They’ve surpassed our expectations in every way. The menu is nutritious and exciting without being too challenging for young palates. We couldn’t be happier with our choice to have North Star as part of our care community.

We have had our son on the waitlist to attend this centre since it was first announced that North Star would be opening. We loved the premise of learning in line with the Finland Way education model. Our son started on day 1 of their opening and I cannot say just how pleased we are with every element of the service. We expected some teething issues given it was a brand new centre but service has been above and beyond our expectations since commencement. I’ve had this child and my older kids at various centres in the area and whilst some were great (others shocking) North Star is world’s apart in terms of communication and service, but mostly because every day my very clingy 2 year old is happy to go and then happy at home time to tell me all about his wonderful day. They understand that every child is different and encourage the individuality of the child and their interests and routines rather than force them to conform to what is easiest. We love it so much we already have our next child on the waitlist and they aren’t even born yet, but can’t risk there not being availability.

This is one of the best reflections for a first week we’ve ever had about our daughter. Thank you so much!

Thank you Connagh & Jaspreet for having Varis. It’s such a relief knowing that Varis is having such a lovely teachers.

So glad she has settled in perfectly.

Thank you I am so so glad she is back into childcare and making friends ❤️.

My daughter has become a strong character and she expresses her opinions.

She has become much more expressive—when she’s sad, she can communicate it clearly through words and facial expressions without hesitation. The same goes for when she’s happy. I’ve noticed her positive growth and transformation happening very quickly.

He has clearly become more attentive and independent. He now washes himself, eats on his own, and even tries to help me in the kitchen at times. I’ve also noticed that he expresses his feelings much more easily now.

Since our son started in the FinlandWay® programme he has started to trust himself more and make his own decisions. He has a very good relationship with his friends and he loves school.

As a mother, I see my child thriving and full of energy, and I credit this to the FinlandWay® approach your school has adopted.

I would like to say that the FinlandWay® program is enjoyable for both the child and the teacher, and it helps the child develop quickly. This program also contributes to shaping a good citizen who cares for others, collaborates with them, and shares tasks and resources. Additionally, it helps the child enjoy learning and be creative.

A child has choices, opinions, and preferences. Their development, growth, well-being, and personality can be strengthened by listening to their opinions, respecting them, and helping them make the right choices and decisions. This is what learning is all about, and it’s what makes the FinlandWay® program one of the best educational approaches in the world.

I would have wanted to benefit from FinlandWay® myself during my preschool, it would have made all the difference.

I love seeing my son this happy. He is curious and loves to learn
