Fantastic teachers and such a wonderful environment! My daughter adores coming here every day. When she started, she hardly knew any English, but within just a year, she's already speaking fluently. She's also learning numbers and letters, and her paintings look more real now. The care and dedication from the teachers have made such a difference. It's been amazing to see her grow and become so confident!

I could not recommend Dulwich Hill Preschool more if I wanted to! They have been wonderful in every department and made a profound and positive impact on the lives of both my children. An understanding, caring institution who give you confidence the most important people in your world are being cared for and looked after, and encouraged to socialise, learn and grow. Absolutely recommend this Preschool and its people to any parent.

My son currently attends Dulwich Hill Preschool and my daughter attended the Preschool for 2.5 years before starting school last year. They have both thrived at the preschool. The teachers are dedicated, caring and experienced. There is great communication with parents with regular observations of each child being sent home to parents. The atmosphere is relaxed and there is the right balance between structure and free play. High recommended!

Best preschool! My daughter absolutely loves attending here. The educators are very loving and caring. As a parent who’s probably considered a bit overly protective I have never felt more at ease dropping my daughter off every day and trust the amazing team at this preschool to take care her. Couldn’t be happier with Dulwich Hill Preschool.

Our son attends this preschool and we highly recommend it. In particular, we really like that the children are all in the one room (with some activities each day split between older and younger child groups). There is a good mix of more formal learning activities and play-based activities. The teachers are wonderful, highly professional and caring, and have been a great support to our family. We love being part of the Dulwich Hill Preschool community.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value My 3 year old absolutely loves attending Dulwich Hill Preschool. The staff are experienced (majority have been there for 5 -15 years) and genuinely love and care for every child who attends. The Preschool focuses on educating children through play based activities and incursions. My daughter has learnt about recycling, Ramadan, how to grow vegetables from seedlings just to name a few. I selected a different day care centre for my first daughter based on the brand new facilities. The centre had a high staff turnover, were inexperienced and she barely did any activities. My biggest regret is not sending my first daughter to Dulwich Hill Preschool. Dulwich Hill Preschool hasn’t got brand new facilities but it is extremely clean and they have all the toys and equipment required to build motor skills, problem solving skills and creativity. One key asset to the Preschool is the multicultural and age mix amongst the staff. My daughter is so lucky to develop relationships with such beautiful people. I am kept up to date with what my daughter has got up to at Preschool every day through welcomed verbal communication on pick up as well as videos and photo journal on Seesaw. The hours are also very long for a proper preschool 7.30am-5.30pm. I highly recommend this service.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value Dulwich Hill Preschool is a legend in the suburb. Everyone seems to have sent their kids there, and if they haven't, it's only because they couldn't get a spot. I know a family who sent their son who is now 17. His teachers were the same teachers my now 7-year-old had. My son adored the centre, the carers, he made so many wonderful friends, and even after having been in school for two years, he still talks of preschool often, and with great fondness. Bonus: If your child ends up going to the local primary school, a lot of their preschool mates will end up there too, making the transition a lot less daunting.
