Reviews
"Fantastic child care centre!!! They have made it easy to drop my 3 daughters off over the last 7 years, my girls absolutely love attending and have developed the most beautiful caring relationships with all their teachers. Communication from the teachers & centre managers is amazing. They really make you feel welcome, staff are alway striving to do their best. Such a warm friendly environment, I highly recommend"
"My son (3.5yr) has attended BIELC for nearly 2 years and I am blown away by the support, care and education he is receiving. BIELC are providing a great base for his education, they incorporate his interests into their daily activities which I love. He has created some amazing bonds with not only the educators in his room and other children, but also with the support staff and management staff. The educators at BIELC have been prompt to bring any concerns (behavioral, health, development) to my attention and have worked with me on these things. I have also had to raise a few concerns and they have dealt with those issues sensitively and promptly. I count myself lucky that I have such an amazing centre to support me and my family."
"Highly recommend this centre. Such caring, beautiful staff and the environment is incredible, really natural, lots of local art featured. Our son has attend for the last 3 years and has thrived here. We feel like part of a family at BIELC."
"Our little boy attends BIELC. I cannot rate this centre highly enough, the staff are incredibly caring and responsive to our sons needs and interests. We have watched him blossom since starting. His speech, social skills and general well-being have all improved since starting there at 15 months. We only wish he could have started at this centre first. This place is more than an early learning centre, it’s a place that creates community and a sense of belonging for island families."
