Important Notice: Waitlist and Enrolments

We are currently experiencing an exceptionally high volume of enquiries for childcare placements in 2026. At this stage, we have reached full capacity, and all available spots for 2026 have been offered and confirmed.

We have a waitlist in place with an estimated wait time of 2–3 years due to high demand, however we are in the process of reviewing our current waitlist and reaching out to families to confirm whether they still require care or have secured alternative arrangements.

At this time, our waitlist for 2026 remains closed and we kindly ask that you check back soon for updates on when we will reopen the waitlist.

We truly appreciate your understanding and patience.
