Our daughter has been attending Muddy Toes for nearly a year now and we still love this centre for her! She is so well cared for, gets to spend time with all ages which we love, and best of all she gets to spend majority of her time outdoors! We would highly recommend Muddy Toes Stanmore Bay, especially for those wanting their kids to grow up making fun out of anything and dancing in the rain!

The absolute best daycare for adventurous kids. My son attended Muddy Toes for almost 2 years and he absolutely loved it. The best part was the teachers. They love the kids to their core and it was beautiful to see my son thriving under the care of these amazing humans. Daily excursions are an absolute bonus. My son would come home with stories from his beach visits, nature walks, playground stops - all the things he wouldn’t get to do at a regular daycare. This place is 10/10. Highly recommend!

We love Muddy Toes! My son loves going here and we've felt so supported by all the teachers and staff. The teachers know and care for all the children, and you really feel a personal connection and sense of belonging to the community they've built. I found the team very kind and understanding when transitioning my son to daycare. He'd never been without me before and I was nervous! But the team put me at ease and helped us to adjust smoothly. On top of all this, the Forest Philosophy they use is so great for the kids! They're outside rain or shine and the Kaiako even take them out on excursions to the bush, beach, and park! You can see how much confidence this builds for the children and is a pretty unique feature of Muddy Toes. One of the other reasons we chose this centre was due to the fact the children can all interact, they're not fully separated by age. Watching my son modeling after the older children has been so great and we've really noticed him excel and challenge himself because of this. I feel like Muddy Toes is so great for my son's development, I completely trust all the teachers there, and most importantly, he has a great time and is excited to go! Thanks, Muddy Toes team for all that you do.
