What Parents Say

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Dooral. From the moment I first walked through their doors, I felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and welcome. My daughter has been attending since she was just 5 months old, and now at 2 years old, she absolutely loves it there. The staff are incredible—they are not only professional and attentive, but they also truly care for each child as if they were their own. It brings me so much comfort to know she is in such good hands. Their dedication and love have made them feel like a part of our extended family. The environment is nurturing and stimulating, filled with activities that promote growth and learning. I’ve seen my daughter flourish and develop new skills and friendships every day. I couldn’t recommend them more highly to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and enriching daycare for their child. Thank you for everything you do Dooral!

I am sharing my experience to all parents who are looking for a daycare centre- My husband and I are very happy with Dooral. There are lots of centres in the area, but Dooral stood out to us mainly because of their great learning programs. There is a balance between free play and learning activities. My first son has been there since he was a baby and now is 4 years old. He has grown so much and enjoys going there. I can compare it to prep school for his age on. I also get regular updates, eg. photos of the day, on the app. I recently enrolled my second son who is 2 years old. He was very attached to me but the teachers made the transition very easy and in no time he settled in. The app also kept me updating with his progress during the day. All the teachers in each of the 3 rooms are well educated, patient and very kind. They each put so much effort into each child there. The centre is always clean and tidy. The director herself is very welcoming to deal with and runs the centre so professionally. I am comfortable and very happy with the care and eduction my kids are getting.
I highly recommend Dural to any parent!!

We love Dooral! The teachers are knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in each child’s development. Our daughter has blossomed in their care, developing essential skills and friendships. The facility is clean, well-organised, and safe. Communication is excellent, keeping us informed about daily activities and milestones. We appreciate the variety of activities, including arts, music, and outdoor play. Thank your Dooral for always providing a great environment for our 2 year old (who has attended since a baby).

It was a huge decision as to where to send our Daughter, and after viewing several centres in the area, we knew immediately Dooral was the right one. The teachers are amazing and they fully engage with the children at all times, ensuring that their development and care is the priority. Our daughter has learnt so many great skills during her time at Dooral and I always know she’s in the best hands. The facilities and equipment are clean and modern and encourage learning and development at all ages. I can’t recommend this centre highly enough!

Dooral Early Learning Centre is a wonderful place of learning, fun and adventure. I was worried to send my son off to daycare when I had to return to work as I of course was concerned that he wouldn’t be nurtured and appreciated as much as at home.. well never fear, at Dooral it is the complete opposite! The staff are so caring, professional and take genuine interest in the life of the kids. They all are so involved in my son’s development and keep me constantly updated with progress and newly learnt skills, it is such a joy for a parent when they have to be away from their child. I could not recommend Dooral any higher.. It truely is the best second home for my son!

Couldn’t recommend Kenthust Dooral ELC higher. A beautiful, welcoming community that has looked after our little girl and helped her blossom so much over the past year. Thank you to Silvia and the team for their ongoing dedication and support for our little ones.

Words can not explain when your child is excited to get ready and get to the car because they know they are coming to Dooral!! We have started attending here a few weeks now and our nonverbal child hurries us to get him to Dooral and doesn’t want to leave at pick up. I have to chase him in the centre and carry him to the car as he doesn’t want to leave even though he has been there all day. This just shows amazing staff and amazing environment. The staff are so in-tuned with the children, patient, cheerful and work really hard to support our boy. Thank you Dooral staff for making our boy excited to be social and learning each Dooral day.

This daycare made the transition for my toddler starting daycare for the first time so much easier. The educators are kind, nurturing, and all mums themselves- not super young. Meals and nappies are included, which makes life so much easier. The centre is surrounded by beautiful Kenthurst gardens and nature, with plenty of room for kids to run around. There’s also not as much sickness here compared to the bigger daycares. Highly recommend!
