Vaucluse Little School - Vaucluse, New South Wales

Our daughter has been attending Vaucluse Little School for the past 18 months, and I can't put into words how grateful we are for the love and care she has received here. If we weren’t moving from the city, we would never have left—this place has felt like a second home for her.

From the very beginning, the educators have been warm, attentive, and incredibly nurturing. They didn’t just look after our daughter—they really knew her: her love of yoga, her fascination with flags, and even her obsession with dinosaurs. What really stood out to us was the way that Vaucluse Little School fostered such a sense of community. The educators genuinely care not just about the children, but also about the families—they made us feel included and supported every step of the way.

We are so sad to be leaving VLS, but we know that the memories and experiences she had here will stay with her (and us!) for a long time to come. We can’t recommend VLS enough—it’s more than just a daycare, it became an extension of our leaving.

Thank you to Annette, Mowanna, Melissa and the entire team for all the love and care you have shown our girl. We will miss you all so much xxx

My son has attended Vaucluse Little School for 2.5 years, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Having experienced other daycares with my older children, I can confidently say the care my son has received here is second to none. The staff at Vaucluse Little School have been there for many years, a true testament to how well the daycare is run.

My son, who is very much a mama's boy, is always happy to attend each day and often comes home excitedly talking about how much he loves Annette, Mowana, Melissa, and Georgia. There is always a sense of calm whenever I pick him up, which is incredibly reassuring.

They do fun activities with the kids like Easter hat parades and Christmas concerts, and they have special guests coming in to speak with the kids about bugs, animals, and recycling. We receive daily photos of the kids, which show just how happy they are and provide a wonderful glimpse into their day.

Being a Montessori school, Vaucluse Little School encourages learning through interest and fosters independence. You can tell the educators love what they do, and it makes a world of difference. I couldn't be happier with the nurturing and educational environment they provide. If you're looking for a daycare that genuinely cares about your child's development and happiness, Vaucluse Little School is the place to be!

So happy we’ve found this little gem. The educators are brilliant and keep us informed of what our daughter gets up to everyday. She absolutely adores going here - she runs up the path when we arrive and rarely even says goodbye to us, she’s so happy to be there. Couldn’t recommend the place highly enough.

I highly recommend Vaucluse Little School. The educators are the best (this is our third daycare) and they genuinely care for the children. Staff turnover is non-existent, which is telling in itself. The Montessori activities keep the children engaged and learning every day. Communication is very strong with plenty of notice provided for upcoming activities (Harmony Week/Easter Hat parade), and my son’s development and daily activities are well detailed via the Storypark app. We love Little School!

The most nurturing, supportive, caring, loving environment for the children. Blown away by the attention to detail, the daily different activities and practical skills they are taught. Our two year old couldn’t be happier…the teachers led by Annette are so committed to ensuring every single child thrives. The most beautiful community 10/10 ?

I would highly recommend VLS to any parents looking for a warm, welcoming, nurturing place for their children. Every child is special at VLS. I felt like I was dropping our little fellow off with family each morning. He loved it, and got so much out of being there - socially and intellectually. All the staff are highly dedicated and happy in their roles, and very responsive to both children and parents.

Our kids have been at Vaucluse Little School for a number of years now and the kids love being there. The staff are very friendly, caring, the education program is very good, they are great at providing feedback and importantly, there is little to no turnover of staff, with the same teachers being there for many years. The classes are small and intimate and overall, the school has a very nice feel.

All four of my children have attended Vaucluse Little School over a period of 9 years. Exceptional early learning environment, educators are amazing!
