EXCELLENT Based on 20 reviews Posted on Allen Ha31 January 2026 My daughter absolutely loved attending this centre, only reason we have stopped is because she has started school otherwise she would definitely continue attending. I would like to say a special thanks to all the educators and management at this centre (especially Tash and Nadya) as they have made my daughter's time here a blast. All the rooms are so spacious and there are a variety of different activities for the kids to explore and play with. They even have weekly incursions where they get to play different sports, play musical instruments and dance. I definitely recommend this childcare centre to anyone looking for somewhere to send their child, book a tour and have a look for yourself how well maintained and how happy the kids are here. Thank you Tash and the team at Happy Seeds ELC for taking such good care of our daughter while she was in your care. We really appreciate all your efforts and love for what you guys do each and every day.Posted on Salima Khakwani28 January 2026 We are incredibly grateful for our experience at Happy Seeds.

I wholeheartedly recommend Happy Seeds to any parent looking for exceptional care for their little one.Posted on Nina Nguyen20 February 2025 I ve toured pretty much all of the childcare centers in Glen Waverley, Mount waverley and Wheelers Hill before deciding to enroll my eldest son at Happy Seeds. Ms Tash was very welcoming (and still is) on every single day my son goes here. She sets a very positive energy to the whole place. My son has never been in care before so leaving him to go to kinder was a big decision and after interacting with his educators I feel completely at ease. Ms Nadya, Ms Julie and Ms Arisha look after the children so well. They made my son settle in so quickly (he only cried on the first week). Thank you so much for looking after Dom. I can’t wait for my youngest to join Happy Seeds in the coming yearPosted on Danielle Greco14 February 2025 Our 1 year old daughter started childcare in January and it was such an exciting, yet anxious time of our lives. Happy Seeds ELC have been nothing short of amazing. They have transitioned our daughter into childcare so smoothly and have ensured she has settled in comfortably. The educators consistently update us on our daughters day/routine, constantly sending through photos and overviews of her day. My mind is at ease knowing she is at a centre that is passionate about caring and educating young learners. I couldn't be more happy with our decision on sending our daughter here. My daughter loves attending Happy Seeds. Thank you to all the fantastic educators! You are truly amazing.
