"We have been thrilled with the program at Koalaroo since its inception. Both of our kids have gone through the program and have not only thrived socially, but exceeded all of our expectations for age-appropriate educational milestones. Open communication with the teacher helped us keep the guidance our kids were receiving consistent between school and home. At Koalaroo, the kids really are the top priority. We would enthusiastically recommend Koalaroo Preschool to anyone looking for a top quality education for their toddlers and preschoolers."

"I can't imagine what life would be like for my son without Koalaroo. Annie and all the wonderful teachers are Koalaroo are just absolutely amazing and we consider them an extension of our immediate family. If you haven't checked out Koalaroo as a place to send your child, then you are more than missing out. Thank you Annie and everyone for making K's life super special and bringing him as far as he has come. We wouldn't be here without you."

"Annie & (Chef) Steve have been wonderful at Koalaroo Preschool. My girls (ages four & nearly two) have learned SO much in the short time they have been there and are truly excited to go every day. I am thoroughly impressed by how professionally this preschool is run and the meals/snacks that they prepare for the kids every day."

"Being first-time parents, we experienced the typical concerns of placing our child in the care of others. When we first brought our daughter to Koalaroo Preschool we were quickly comforted by how welcoming and friendly the staff was. The impact was immediate as we watched her happily interact with her teachers and fellow students, and blossom before our eyes both socially and intellectually. The expert guidance and genuine love that is provided to the children allows them to thrive in every aspect of their development. We are witnessing new milestones on a weekly basis. Our daughter loves to sing and to explore her environment with an enthusiastic curiosity that we know will form the foundation for her as she grows and develops into happy, content and productive individual. With the added bonus of having healthy cooking provided by the in-house chef, we know at the end of the day when we pick her up that she has been well nourished in every way. We highly recommend Koalaroo Preshool."

"My son has been attending Koalaroo for 3 years. Annie and Chef Steve have created such a wonderful atmosphere it only yields happy and joyous children. The lessons are constructive and built for each age group and the meals are amazing! Chef Steve has created a 2 month menu with meals from different parts of the world. My goal was to send my son to KBS after Koalaroo. His transition was seamingless! Thank you Annie, Steve and everyone at Koalaroo for helping mold my son into the wonderful boy he is today."

"Koalaroo Preschool is the only place I feel comfortable leaving my children. Not only is it a great education for her, but the staff is nurturing, kind and very thorough with follow-up. They are amazing there and would recommend them to anyone!"

"Koalaroo preschool is amazing. My son has really thrived with his teachers support, kindness, and love of teaching. My son was barely speaking at 2 1/2, and 6 months later is singing songs, counting to 20, saying his colours and is forming sentences. He has developed such a personality, has made friendships and has bonded so well with his peers and teachers. Koalaroo is definitely a top notch preschool, it has been the best choice for my son's development. We couldn't be happier!"

"Dear Annie, Koalaroo is such a special place! Abi has benefitted so much from the love, creativity, & care you've poured into Koalaroo, & she has blossomed under your care. We are so sad to say goodbye, but we'll always remember the difference you've made. With heartfelt appreciation, Rachel, Stephen Abi & Willy"

"Hi Mis. Meechan, Just wanted to say a big Thank You for everything you did. Koalaroo is such a happy place, and it really shows in how much Shiv has loved being here. From the very first day we dropped him off as a tiny tot, nervous and holding back tears, you welcomed him and us with such warmth and care. That meant the world to us. It's been such a joy watching him grow, learn and thrive in your care. We couldn't have asked for a better place for him to begin his journey. Thank You for all the smiles, fun and heart you've poured into everyday. Vidya "

"I looked all over Barrie to find the perfect school for my daughter, Julia. Thankfully, I found it at Koalaroo. The teachers at Koalaroo provided Julia with a very positive introduction to school and an excellent foundation for learning! We are extremely appreciative and impressed with your program. In the words of Julia “Koalaroo is a great school because the teachers make me feel so special, I learn a lot of fun things and Chef Steve makes really great food”. Thank you for putting your heart and soul into your school by creating a positive environment for Julia to learn and grow."
