Centre Reviews
I had the pleasure of completing my 9-week work placement at Only About Children in Melbourne Central, and it was an incredible experience.... I had the pleasure of completing my 9-week work placement at Only About Children in Melbourne Central, and it was an incredible experience. From day one, the staff made me feel welcome and supported. The team was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about early childhood education, and they encouraged me to get hands-on experience while learning the ins and outs of the industry. A huge thank you to the amazing staff members—Negar, Justin, Precious, Karmon, and Xiniu—who guided me, assisted me, and patiently answered all my questions. Your support and encouragement made all the difference during my placement, and I learned so much from each of you. I truly appreciate the time you took to ensure I felt confident and prepared every step of the way. The children were a joy to interact with, and I appreciated the thoughtful, child-centered approach that the center provides. I gained valuable insights into curriculum development, child development, and the importance of creating a nurturing environment. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a dedicated and caring team, and I look forward to applying the skills I learned in my future career. Highly recommend this center for anyone looking to make a meaningful impact in the lives of children! Read more
