Why Choose Hopskotch?
Don’t take our word for it, here is what our families have to say…
After a truly difficult experience at our previous daycare, finding Hopscotch Toongabbie felt like a breath of fresh air. From the very first day, we noticed a complete change in our daughter – she was happy, engaged, and excited to go each morning. The warmth, professionalism, and genuine care from every educator has made such a difference in her life, and ours. The staff go above and beyond to create a nurturing, stimulating, and safe environment. They know each child so well (I honestly dont know how they remember all their names) and treat them as individuals – not just names on a roll. We’ve watched our daughter grow in confidence, build friendships, and thrive socially and emotionally. The communication is outstanding, and we’ve always felt involved and supported.
We absolutely love Hopskotch — five stars and would give more if I could! I have two children enrolled and I’m consistently impressed by the way they are cared for and nurtured by the educators, this is evident in the way my children run to the educators in the morning at drop off. The staff are professional and knowledgeable, while also being kind, warm, and approachable. One of the things I value most is the open communication with families. We’re always kept up to date on our children’s progress and any developments throughout their day, which gives us such peace of mind. We feel incredibly lucky to be part of the Hopskotch community — it truly feels like a second home for our kids
My daughter goes here and the staff are just amazing! Would highly recommend 👌
From the moment we enrolled our son, the warmth and genuine care from the whole team shone through. The nurturing environment and engaging activities have sparked his curiosity and boosted his confidence, making every day a delightful learning adventure. He loves going to Hopskotch and the team make drop off and pick up so easy. The dedicated educators create a safe space where creativity and exploration merge seamlessly with learning about traditional culture and nature. The regular, thoughtful communication reassures us as parents that our son is in excellent hands. The facility itself is cheerful and well-maintained with easy (and extra wide) car parking spaces. We’re truly grateful for the positive impact Hopskotch has had on our son’s growth. We wholeheartedly recommend their childcare service to any parent seeking a supportive, enriching, and fun environment. Keep up the great work, team—you’re making a real difference!
There is a reason why Hopskotch is exceeding.When searching for a daycare for my first born I was always told to go to council run centres..I searched many and did not have pleasant experience.I had a colleague tell me about Hopskotch,booked a walk through and the rest is history.My daughter still attends,majority of the staff are the same from when my son went (which I love).It highlights that the staff are happy,and most importantly so are the kids.If you are wanting to find a centre you feel comfortable sending your kids to look no further.❤️
We’re so happy with our experience at Hopskotch Kindergarten. My 2-year-old absolutely loves going in each day and always comes home with a smile. The staff are genuinely warm and welcoming, and I can’t thank Hema, Visha, and Chloe enough — they’ve cared for my little one with so much love and attention. Since starting, she’s come such a long way. Her communication skills have really improved, and she’s overcome her stranger anxiety, which means the world to us. We also love their approach to risk-based play — it’s helped her build confidence in such a fun and safe way. We’re really grateful to have found a place like Hopskotch. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a kind, caring, and nurturing environment for their child.
We’ve had such a wonderful experience at Hopskotch! The educators are caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children’s growth and happiness. My child absolutely loves going each day and has built such strong, positive relationships with both the staff and their little friends. The centre has a beautiful balance of play, learning, and emotional development, and we’ve seen so much growth in confidence, independence, and social skills. The communication from the centre is always clear and thoughtful, and it’s so reassuring to know our child is in such safe, nurturing hands. We’re so grateful to be part of the Hopskotch community and couldn’t recommend it more highly!
My daughter has been attending Hopskotch since 2021 and loves it! Very low turn over of educators (all the same from when she first started which is has been great!) My other daughter has just started and I feel so at ease knowing she is well looked after, staff are caring and nurturing and the centre has a lovely homely feel to it.
Very satisfied with the service they provide to the kids. Both of my kids went to the hopskotch childcare. They provide creative learning experience to the kids and they mostly use recycle and eco friendly materials for any art and craft. Which is good for our surrounding environments .
This centre is amazing. My son absolutely loves going there and the educators are all so welcoming.
Hopskotch is an amazing daycare! Since starting there this year our kids have not just been taken care of, they have been loved. Their educators have embraced and encouraged who they are and what they are interested in. Our kids are now excited to go each week and have a new confidence in their abilities. They also love that although they are in different rooms they get to play with each other in the amazing outdoor space every day. We love that the same staff are always there so our kids feel comfortable and they provide so many extra opportunities including healthy Harold, an amazing Mother’s Day afternoon tea, indigenous visitors and a visit from the local MP. It feels more like a community than just a daycare and we are so grateful to be able to have our kids flourish and learn at Hopskotch.
We have been attending Hopskotch for about 5 years now. Both my older boys who have gone off to school and now my 3 year daughter attends and has done since she was 1. As a past educator myself I can’t fault this service. Privately own by people who care about the staff and children’s well-being and the low staff turnover over speaks volumes of this. The staff are friendly, helpful and supportive always engaging and providing quality experiences for the children and work collaboratively with families to ensure the children’s goals and needs are met. My daughter loves her “school” so what more could I ask for. We were on the wait list for this service for nearly 2 years in the beginning and it’s safe to say it was worth the wait!!!
This Kindergarten is nothing short of amazing. The staff are so lovely and attentive to the children. The playground is an amazing nature space for them to enjoy and inside the rooms are always set up for a fun day. It is clean, well organised and the kids are always smiling and happy. We will be sad to go when the time comes.
It's a big deal selecting where to put my daughter in to care, and I wouldn't trust anywhere else. Hopskotch nurture and treat my daughter as if she's their own. She smiles as she gets out of the car each day and waves goodbye to the building as she leaves. She has learned and grown so much at Hopskotch. Thank you to all the adoring educators for all their constant efforts!
Dedicated staff who go absolutely above and beyond! An amazing centre, great place for children.
My children have been attending Hopskotch for four years now and we absolutely love it, all of the educators are nurturing and wonderful. The education and care the children receive is excellent. The staff make the children feel safe and happy, they encourage them to explore and have fun and they foster respect, compassion, independence and curiosity. I highly recommend Hopskotch Toongabbie.
They say that a village raises a child and choosing the right early childhood education centre is so critical to nurturing your children at a crucial point in their development. I know that by having sent my children to Hopskotch Kindergarten, they have had the best opportunity to learn and grow into thoughtful and well-rounded individuals. Hopskotch not only provide great care but instill values in my children that I feel are so important, including respect, compassion and curiousity. They are an exemplar for the early childhood education sector and I highly recommend them.
Best preschool parents can wish for their child! So positive and interactive with kids, always smiles at welcome n goodbyes. My son is improving daily in his social skills, n they always keep me updated with positive vibes, my son was so clingy, n now he runs happily inside at mornings. Carla has been so cooperative and kind always.
My daughter absolutely loves coming to kindy everyday. The staff are great and helped her to settle in to care so well. She comes home so happy each day, can't recommend the centre enough!
I can not rate Hopskotch highly enough. Both of my children have spent their entire pre K life (from 9 months old) with the wonderful, caring and incredible educators at this centre Im so comfortable knowing my kids are always safe and supported and love hearing their stories everyday when I pick them up. I love seeing the smile on their face and hearing them tell me all about their friends and how much they love their teachers. Best decision I made 6 years ago when i was looking for a centre. Highly recommend!

Couldn't ask for a better preschool, from the babies rooms right up to the preschool room my children have had nothing but a positive experience. The school provides a nurturing, all inclusive environment where the staff are caring and happy to help each child in all stages of their early learning environment. Would recommend to any parent looking for care.

Child-Centered Approach
Partnership with Families
Learning Through Play

What we Believe
Where Wonder Meets Wisdom
Picture this: a little one discovering that leaves change colour, not because they have to learn it, but because the world around them is full of magnificent mysteries waiting to be explored. This is learning at Hopskotch.
We believe every child arrives as a natural scientist, artist, and storyteller. Our role isn’t to fill them with facts, but to nurture their beautiful curiosity and help them make sense of their wonderful, expanding world.
Through gentle guidance rooted in research, we create magical moments where learning happens naturally. Whether it’s a toddler discovering the feel of sand between their fingers or a school-ready child solving their first maths puzzle through play, every experience is designed to build confidence, creativity, and connection.
Our educators weave nature, music, stories, and friendship into each day, creating opportunities for little minds to grow and flourish in the most joyful way possible.

How qualified are your educators?
Every member of our team holds proper early childhood qualifications, but more importantly, they share our genuine love for children. We choose educators who understand that caring for your precious little one is both a privilege and a responsibility.
How do you build relationships with families?
We believe parents are children’s first teachers, so we work together as partners. You’ll receive daily updates, have open access to visit anytime, and always feel welcome to share your thoughts, concerns, or celebrations with us.
