This daycare is amazing. Moved my daughter over when it first opened. The indoor outdoor space is amazing and the centre is so spacious and clean. She was constantly sick at her old daycare and touch wood not once has been sick since October. Highly recommend Junior Explorers. The educators are amazing as well and treat the children like their own.
