What recent reviews say

Staff are genuinely warm and stay for years, creating a sense of family. Educators plan creative daily activities like community garden visits and themed learning, and parents consistently hear back via Storypark and in-person chats. The centre is bright, clean, and well-laid out. However, one detailed 2024 account describes a pattern of biting incidents that went unreported to parents and inadequately supervised, with systemic management failures that prompted a complaint to regulators.

The experience splits sharply: most families report thriving children and supportive care; one parent experienced repeated harm and lost trust in oversight. Before committing, parents should investigate the centre's incident response protocols and supervision practices directly.

Praised for
  • caring, warm educators
  • strong staff continuity
  • engaging activities and learning
  • excellent parent communication
  • clean, well-designed facility
Watch-outs
  • child safety incident (biting)
  • inadequate supervision
  • concealment of incidents
  • poor incident management

Blue Tongue's team consistently delivers responsive, hands-on support. Reviewers praise the professionalism of named staff like Makere Te Maiharoa and Tahlia Hadwiger, who follow up quickly and guide people through recruitment and training with genuine care. The business combines structured training (bus operation, heavy vehicle mechanics, electrician certifications) with employment placement, particularly for mining and transport roles across Australia and internationally. Many reviewers credit the team with relocating them from Africa or elsewhere to secure jobs with Go West, Rio Tinto, and other major employers.
