“We had the best experience with our little one at mighty minds bucklands beach. The teachers are very kind and caring and they have a high ratio of staff to children. They have a great set up with good outdoor and indoor areas as well as a great Montessori philosophy. Thank you Joanne, Xing, Li and the team for looking after us and helping our little one thrive.”
