The Harbour Haven

We chose The Harbour Haven simply because it’s close to our home and didn’t even compare it with other centres. But ever since our daughter started here, we feel so incredibly lucky every single day. I often find myself thinking how blessed we are to have found such a wonderful place — the children here are truly so happy. Every morning when we walk in, a variety of activities are already beautifully set up — arts and crafts, reading corners, outdoor play and more. The classrooms are spacious, and the outdoor area is amazingly large, giving children plenty of room to explore and play freely. The meals are another highlight — freshly prepared on site by a dedicated chef. They are thoughtfully planned, delicious, and beautifully presented. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing the children are eating such high-quality food. What really stands out is the care. The teachers are attentive and genuinely responsive to each child’s needs. There are always enough teachers around, making sure every child feels seen, supported, and cared for. When our daughter first started, she didn’t speak any English. The teachers were incredibly patient and supportive. Not only did they gently help her build confidence in English, they also encouraged her to keep speaking her home language. That meant so much to us as a family. Now she is thriving in both languages, and we truly appreciate the respect and encouragement they’ve shown toward her cultural background. Being located by the sea makes it even more special. The children sometimes go on picnics and even visit the wharf to feed stingrays under careful supervision — such unique and memorable experiences! Rain or shine, the children play wholeheartedly. Even on rainy days, they happily put on their raincoats and continue enjoying the outdoors. When I pick my daughter up, she often doesn’t want to leave — which says everything. We are beyond grateful to be part of this beautiful community.

Our son loves Harbour Haven. The teachers are the best around, the chef makes the most delicious meals (always makes me hungry walking in through the doors) The whole crew has the most incredible vibe and we are so happy to be supporting a centre run by such passionate locals

My daughter has recently started at The Harbour Haven and we have been so impressed with the centre. The staff are nurturing and supportive and the food always smells amazing when I’m in the centre. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a beautiful centre run by lovely local teachers!
