“We’ve had a great experience with Little Pearls Mount Roskill and my daughter is so happy, she is learning every day something new to enhance her developments. The environment is so cozy and the teachers are like second mother that I was hospitalised for a week and I left in her in center without any worries I know it was her second home. The important part of the centre was warm, friendly atmosphere — it allowed my daughter to build meaningful connections with teachers and classmates. Lastly, special thanks to the Director of the Little Pearls were always involved and supportive throughout this journey.”

“We are very happy to have been part of the Little Pearls Educare Centre, Mt Roskill. Our family had a wonderful and positive experience, and my son truly loved going there. The centre’s values deeply match our own family values. The administration is very kind, understanding, and supportive. They helped us whenever we needed it and showed genuine care for our situation. The teachers are professional, passionate, warm, and create a safe and welcoming environment for children. Our son has selective mutism, and I am especially grateful for how quickly the centre’s team recognised the issue and organised support from a language therapist. That early action was a crucial first step. The second important part was the centre’s warm, friendly atmosphere — it allowed our son to build meaningful connections with teachers and classmates. Despite his challenges, he always felt comfortable, accepted, and understood, and express himself in his own way. The teachers and administration were always involved and supportive throughout this journey, including during his transition and preparation for school. Also, as a family with one working parent and one studying, the centre felt like an extended family to us. They were flexible and understanding with schedules, especially during my exam weeks. We deeply appreciate everything the Little Pearl team has done for our son and our family. Thank you for creating such a caring, inclusive, and supportive environment. We highly recommend this centre!”
