Reviews
Amy Cato
★★★★★“I have had 2 children at Richmond Creche and Kindergarten and the quality of the Educators is the best in Melbourne. I have been at other Centres and RCK exceeds them by far. The yard is undergoing a great redevelopment for the kiddies to play. The community of families and the love and care of the Educators is why we love it. There is a reason this is the oldest Centre in Melbourne- it is a truly special place.”

★★★★★“Highly recommended, safe and affordable childcare in the heart of Richmond. We have been sending our daughter for the past couple of years and have seen a huge leap in her development and personality. Staff are fabulous, supportive and caring. Great social side and community spirit to the Kinder, with regular BBQs, social opportunities and fundraisers. I feel we made an excellent decision for both our child, and us as parents, first learning experience.”

★★★★★“We love this daycare centre, couldn't recommend it enough! It has a really homely feel, the staff are amazing and caring and the developmental activities for the kids are really well thought out and executed. The food for the kids is amazing and we really like the outdoor play areas. This is a not-for-profit centre not a chain, which we feel makes a difference. All money raised gets pumped back into the centre and it's been a childcare centre for 130 years!”

★★★★★“My daughter currently attends RCK, it has been the most comforting and positive experience for the both of us. The Educators genuinely care for the children and their families - and develop beautiful relationships with both. So much time and effort is spent planning their days - from playing to learning to the meals they receive. My daughter looks forward to attending each day and most days doesn't want to leave! I am so happy with our choice to attend RCK!”

★★★★★“We have been part of the RCK community for many years. I love the homely feel of the centre and the staff are fantastic. I really appreciate the fact that staff go out of their way each day to have a chat and share a story about my son's day when I pick him up!! A sign that they really care about the children in their care and their families.”
