I just want to let you know I have been so impressed with all the teachers over the last few weeks. Starting Isla in day care has been a challenging time for me as it always is with a change. The room one staff have been so fantastic in easing my anxieties and helping Isla settle in. I have been so impressed by how they keep in touch during the day if needed and all the feedback I have got.

Isla has settled so easily I think and that is because of the amazing nuturing environment and caring staff. Finlay also is doing so well and so happy in room 4. I again have been very impressed by the teachers.

Since we have been in Active Explorers Mana it has been such a great center to have our children in and nice to know they are safe and happy while we can't be with them. You are all so great at your job

You guys were awesome from the moment I walked in the door, you made me feel welcome and after my sons first day it seems like you guys have done an awesome job with that. I couldn't ask for more!

You have been accommodating from the start and communicated well from the start of my inquiry to the actual enrolment and start date.

Look who visited Mana Active Explorers this afternoon!

A wee seal pup wondered into our car park looking for a bit of care. So all the children went out to investigate.
