Testimonials

GESAC childcare is THE BEST! It will be my tenth year of experiencing this service and my fourth child “Minnie” just loves spending time there.  The play space both inside and outside is fantastic, clean and fun. The women who run the occasional care have been there for years so the children get to know them really well. I can certainly say this service kept me going with a much needed reprieve from 6 weeks old until they start prep. As soon as we received the 6 week immunisation record I was off to see the ladies at GESAC childcare. The real life savers are working in the Occasional care department! - Karen

I would thoroughly recommend wanting some “me time” to drop your kids off at the childcare. My son started at 3mths and is in his final year before he starts school. Whilst the space may seem small, the educators make sure the kids are engaged through various activities for their age. Educators are also fantastic at giving cuddles and reassurance when they are screaming during their “clingy” stages! Thanks - Christine


Thanks Michelle and the team.  My twin boys absolutely love coming along to the creche and I love having a little time to myself in the gym upstairs. Susan, Helen and Jane always have a fun-filled morning of activities ready for the boys, they have an absolute blast and loving coming.  It's such a great environment for play and exploration.  Well done! - Katie

Thanks Michelle and Susan for taking great care of Bill for the last three years. He loves coming to GESAC Childcare to play with all the variety of toys and creative activities that you created. During lockdown Bill said he really missed GESAC Childcare and he was so excited to be back. Bill's enthusiasm for going to GESAC Occasional Childcare is a part of my motivation to do exercise at GESAC. I have been recommending your service to many mums and they all love it as much as I do. - Nga
