We absolutely love Fantails Silverdale. Our kid had initially gone to a daycare in Albany, but after a few teachers left we were desperate to locate a happy environment for him. The staff at Fantails are all professional, friendly and nurturing. Always with a welcoming smile, they have a structured schedule where our kid has learned a great variety of skills and he is having fun through it all. He has built strong friendships and shares his activities with excitement everyday. Even though we commute 30 minutes each way, it is worth it and will recommend to anyone.
I cannot speak highly enough of the incredible team at Fantails Silverdale. The difference in my child since joining has been nothing short of extraordinary. In just a few short months—right before transitioning to primary school—we saw such remarkable growth, both socially and emotionally. Having been through two other ECEs before this, I can genuinely say that Fantails Silverdale stands out in every way. The teachers are nothing short of amazing—so much love, care, and thoughtful teaching goes into each day. There’s a clear focus on preparing the children for school, but it's done in such a nurturing and supportive way that learning feels fun and natural. Fantails also does a fantastic job of keeping things fresh and exciting with regular themed days, events, and celebrations that the kids look forward to. The extra activities like playball, swimming, and school visits offer even more variety and learning beyond the typical classroom setting. A special mention must go to Gladys, the wonderful centre manager, whose leadership shines through in the warmth and positivity of the entire centre. The team has created a space that truly feels like an extension of our family. We’re so grateful for the care and dedication shown every day. Thank you, Fantails Silverdale, for making such a beautiful impact on our child's early learning journey!
We are thrilled with Fantails! Our little one started in the babies room and from day one, the teachers have shown nothing but warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. Every day we get updates on a variety of engaging activities that our daughter loves, learns and develops through. Fantails has exceeded our expectations in caring for our daughter and developing her skills, speech and also the incredible food! Our little one has thrived in both the baby room and now the toddler room and the transition was seamless!
