My babies have had THE most amazing first 2 days @ Day Care. They have been so busy exploring and creating, and I just LOVE that their wild imaginations are about to explode even more so! I’m so blessed to have found such a lovely home day care, and to have the most lovely Ms Rita to look after my babies whilst I’m busy studying for a brighter future for myself and them. Charli

From day one it was clear the affect that the educator had on the kids, their warmth was welcoming and comforting to the girls. Children are cared for not just minded. I have always been at peace with the girls being at Rita’s Place Family day care, knowing that their interests are encouraged and growth nurtured. Thanks Rita for looking after my precious girls and my boy. Nga
