Reviews
"We have been very happy with our child’s experience at Edge. We were asked what she liked to play with and on her first day they had all these things ready for her. I thought it was really thoughtful and showed their person centred approach. Located at the shops, it is also very handy."
"I couldn't agree more with the previous comments. Paisley Park team is an absolute treasure. Very helpful and very professional. The educators do an amazing job. They know kids very well and always try to expand kids areas of interest. They regularly organise fun activities that help my son to learn, e.g. when he was interested in learning numbers, the educators thought of a game that was involving all the kids and teaching them counting while having fun. They teach them heaps of practical and everyday skills too e.g. washing hands before meals, recycling, looking after pets and plants. Lisa, the director, is very professional, helpful and kind. As someone mentioned in the other comment, she always makes time for us and she's never made me feel like I interrupt her work, even when I actually did;) She makes everything easier for parents and always offers extra help. I love the fresh food the chef prepares every day. Perfect balance of healthy and tasty. There's always something my fussy toddler enjoys eating. The rooms and the garden are very well designed and equipped, incl. a veggie patch and a chicken coop! And a bonus: Paisley Park team organised some "date nights" for parents, so we can have some child-free time for dinner...and they didn't charge us any extra for it! I definitely recommend this place. I know my son is well looked after there."
"We joined Paisley Park Port Adelaide after moving to a new area. We were nervous how our 3 year old would adjust after having difficulties with drop off time at our previous centre. The staff are so friendly that he has managed to go from a screaming mess to a stoic trouper, heading off for another day filled with adventure. The equipment is currently new, but I've seen staff maintaining it, so it'll last long after the new centre sheen has worn off. After months of working with our child around numbers, we had concerns that he still wasn't counting to 10. He had no interest and resisted any practice. Two weeks after his time at Port Adelaide, he was excited to not only rattle off 1-10 he is excited about working on learning it backwards. The centre newsletter is well put together and extremely informative about what our child has done with his day, so that we can talk to him about what he liked most or learned. Lisa a director is hands on, knowing every child by name. She always has a smile as you interrupt her busy schedule and never makes you feel any request or query is a bother. Really happy with our choice."
"Paisley Park Port Adelaide is such a beautiful centre. Each room has an array of open ended toys, equipment and resources. The program the staff create is educational, hands on and child-lead. Lisa and all the educators go above and beyond for our family, ensuring they communicate open and honestly about our children’s developmental needs. Our children adore all the educators and love their time at Paisley Park Port Adelaide."
"Lisa and her team have been amazing at every step of the way. My son has grown so much, and is loving it there. Putting him into Paisley Park has definitely helped his vocabulary and is always learning new things every day. He loves their cooked meals and has learnt to feed himself which has made things easier at home as well. Highly recommended!!!"
