Goodstart Berrimah - Childcare Centre

"As we approach our last day at the centre, I just wanted to take the time to say a big ‘thank you’. When I contacted you in January looking for a place for my daughter, we read more were in a tricky spot having moved to Palmerston unexpectedly and you were more accommodating than I could have asked for. She had a couple of off weeks while she was settling in and all of the staff were just wonderful in helping her (and me) get used to the centre. She has formed genuine bonds with the staff and feels safe and happy to go to daycare. As you know, as a Mum, that’s all you really want for your kids when you have to leave them to work. We’re sad to be leaving the centre and the community that Berrimah has created for her and we can only hope that she will be as happy at her new centre. So, thank you. To you and all of the staff at the centre, you’ve all been wonderful and we can’t praise you enough. "

"We really cannot thank you enough for everything each and every one of you you have done for us, but absolutely the care you have all shown our daughter is nothing short of read more amazing.

Your Storypark photos and videos meant the world to us."

Every educator is fantastic and the centre is well maintained, never short of activities and healthy meals. Very informative and family orientated. Can't fault the centre!"

"Hands down the best childcare centre in Darwin. We tried a few Childcare in Darwin but nothing comes even close to this one. Staff are very friendly, professional and read more compassionate about their work. Food is provided and it is very good food and more than enough of it. They even have their own chef. The different classes are very structured, educators doing fun activities every day, crafting, painting, educational games. The educators are very caring and genuinely passionate about the kids, they pay attention to your kids needs and what interests them and give good feedback every day, with out even asking. You can feel the friendly, relaxed ambience as soon as you walk in. They open at 0630 which is very handy for people who start work at 0700. I could not recommend any better childcare for my kids in Darwin. Thank you so much for being so excellent."

This is testament to the staff and the genuine care they have for the read more children that attend. The kids' development and interaction have improved. It is truly a great place that children love to come to."
