Understanding Riverstone Families' Unique Needs

The statistics tell a compelling story about our community. Riverstone has an exceptionally high concentration of young families. This demographic reality shapes everything we do at our centre.

  • Real-time updates throughout the day via our secure parent app.
  • Photo documentation of activities and milestones.
  • Direct educator messaging for immediate concerns.
  • Flexible drop-off and pick-up times accommodating train schedules.

  • Regular family social events and weekend activities.
  • Parent networking opportunities during drop-off times.
  • Community noticeboards for local recommendations and connections.
  • Partnerships with local businesses and services.
  • Playdate facilitation between families in similar situations.

  • We moved here from another centre and so happy we made the change! My toddler no longer melts down every time I leave or for days after, goes straight in to play, sleeps well and the educators are so much better at listening to my requests and working with me which made for such a smooth transition. Love all the outdoor space they have and all the educators all give off a lovely warm vibe. 5/5!

  • From the moment we enrolled our child, we have been consistently impressed with the level of care, attention, and love the educators provides. each child’s individual needs are valued, and the educators always communicates with us about our child's progress and any concerns. The peace of mind knowing that our little one is in such capable and caring hands means the world to us. Thank you for being a wonderful part of our child’s early years!

The entire day is planned so well that there is no chance for kids to get bored. It’s like an extended family for us. We LOVE Flourish.

  • My daughter began her journey at Flourish Early Learning Centre this week, and I couldn't be more pleased with the exceptional care she has received! The educators in her classroom have been incredibly attentive and nurturing, consistently reaching out to update me on her progress and sharing daily charts. The environment is not only warm and welcoming, but it also fosters joy and happiness for my little one. As a first-time mom, this has truly eased my mind, knowing she is in such capable hands!

  • Flourish Early Learning is such a nurturing, loving and fun environment for the children in their care. My son has been emotional at some drop offs, however the educators have been fantastic at providing him with the care that he needs to ensure that he feels safe and secure. When I pick him up he assures me that he has had a great day and is very excited to tell me about what he has learned and who he played with. Flourish have a fantastic preschool program, providing such wonderful learning opportunities for the children. We are very happy with our decision to be apart of the Flourish family! Would highly recommend to all other families considering this centre for their child/children.

  • I'm so happy with my daughters center. I was hesitant going back to work after having my daughter. I enrolled her at 8.5 months old and the girls in Nursery were very warm and asked me all about my daughters routine and what she likes and doesn't like. I checked in every now and again ( first time parent worries) and the girls were fully supportive and had all the information about my daughter day. Amanda the director called me after my daughters first week and asked how I was finding everything and if I needed any additional support which I really appreciated. My daughter is now almost two and she loves coming to school and interacting with her friends and educators. I couldn't be happier. I'd recommend this center to anyone.
