“We’ve been going to Kidscape Ballarat for a while now and honestly, it’s such a great place for kids. The environment is clean, welcoming, and really well set up for little ones to play, learn, and explore. There’s always something fun or engaging happening—whether it’s a craft activity, free play, or something a bit educational. The staff are absolutely lovely—friendly, attentive, and really great with kids. You can tell they care. Highly recommend!”

“Our children have been to multiple dayscare in ballarat and geelong and this has by far been the absolute best. The staff are amazing and extremely good with their communication. Always a “good morning” during drop offs and always with a massive smile. The staff in the rooms always answer any questions thoroughly and super positively! Absolutely love this daycare.”
