It didn’t take long for Ms Lyndsay, Ms Mia and Mr Chen to become household names in our home.Our daughter absolutely loves the learning and care provided at this centre. The structure, routine, and strong focus on school readiness is clearly embedded into the program. At just 4 years old, she can already write her name and confidently count to 40, something we’re incredibly impressed by. Her story telling has also improved dramatically, as well as following 3 step instructions.It’s reassuring to see educators who genuinely care about building both confidence and capability in young children while providing stimulating thoughtful activities our daughter looks forward to every day! Thank you to the whole team 🙏

After three wonderful years at Young Academics Box Hill, my child is now heading to Kindy feeling confident, happy, and well prepared. Throughout their time at the centre, we have seen tremendous growth in their social skills, independence, communication, and love of learning. The educators have consistently provided a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment, taking the time to truly understand my child’s needs and strengths. The strong focus on routine, play-based learning, and school readiness has made this transition to Kindy feel exciting rather than daunting. We are incredibly grateful for the care, support, and dedication shown by the team at Young Academics Box Hill, and we leave with nothing but positive experiences and fond memories.

The educators (Ms. Brooke, Mr Sachin and lots of others) and the staff at YA are welcoming, kind and showcase exemplary standards for an early learning centre. The centre is always clean, safe, fun, stimulating and my daughter has thrived since day one. They are very understanding and patient with shy and "needy" kids (as mine was) and this has helped her to grow and feel supported in being away from home. I would definitely recommend other parents to send their child to this centre as head of staff Lyndsay shows her passion through the centre and it really shines through all the happy staff, educators, chefs and most importantly the children. I must add that whenever I am there the food smells amazing.Thank you all!!

My son attended this childcare from last year, he is in Preschool 2 room. He kept talking about his teachers at home and was happy to go to school every day. All the educators in the center are nice and friendly and ready to help, and rooms are tidy and clean too. I’m so impressed that all the stuffs are in his bags, sunscreen, jacket, etc. at the end of the day, which makes picking up easy and time efficient. We are updated with his meals and photos every day on the app which is easy to navigate. Lyndsay, the centre manager is great, every day she greets us with a big smile which is my son’s favourite and whenever she is in the office will say goodbye to my son. Thank you so much for taking good care of my son YA Box Hill team!10 stars if I could.

Great place to send your babies !!!Exceptionally good and can’t talk enough about the educators here especially in the nursery room. My girl started with this daycare and the care that she is getting is amazing. The educators are honest to talk about what happened throughout the day, they won’t say the baby has eaten when in real they have not .Keep going team 😊 Special thanks to Miss Reema, Eva , Sarah for their care and dedication 🙌🏻
