I wish I could do a 0 star review but unfortunately I can’t. I was picking up my child and witnessed Catherine the manager mistreating her wonderful staff. This is highly concerning as I bring my child to this day care. I would highly encourage management to look into this.

My daughter had a wonderful 2.5 years experience at the childcare. The teachers and staff were nice and friendly, and the chef Martin made delicious foods.

I am so grateful to OAC Brighton East for the care they provide my 5 month old. I was initially anxious about sending him to daycare so young but I was immediately put at ease once we started at OAC. The staff are all amazing and take such good care of him and he lights up when he sees them :). The updates they provide throughout the day are very detailed and it’s lovely to see him having fun and getting such loving care when I’m at work.

Great educators, staff and campus director is amazing. Our son loves going to this place and will miss everyone here once we move out of this neighbourhood in a months time. Peronal thanks to entire team at OAC Brighton East and Family support Team in supporing our child for the last 16 months.

Google ReviewFebruary 07, 2022
Could not have asked for a better transition and start into a new daycare. From the start of enquiry all the way through to orientation and the first three months, Oac has been great at every step of the way. I love getting updates to see and read what my girls have been up to all day as well as the updates on the routine part of the day so I can see when they have had meals, naps and nappy changes (for my little one). Bec, the campus director leads such a great group of passionate educators who love what they do and the program offers such great educational and fun plans throughout the day. My youngest loves her food and she has never been happier eating all the deliciously well-balanced and beautifully cooked meals by Martin and the team! I have seen such a positive change in my girls since they commenced full time care, the bonds they have made with the educators/teachers and children has been so lovely to see. Knowing that the care I would have provided for my girls is being continued during their days spent at Oac offers me such great peace of mind. Thanks OAC Brighton East! We love daycare days!
