"After her first year of school at Koalaroo I am so proud of how much our 2 year old daughter has learned at Koalaroo. This school is absolutely amazing, it is great to have a place to bring our little girl that I feel she is safe, in loving care and is have a great time! I have never had to endure the experience of a screaming exit when dropping her off here. The staff is absolutely amazing and our daughter has made a lot of great friends. I cant say enough about how wonderful Koalaroo is, we did a lot of investigation in finding the perfect school and after her first full year the hard work paid off. We found the perfect place for her at Koalaroo. - Thank you!"

"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"

"Annie and Steve are amazing caregivers and I have been amazed by their level of commitment to make Koalaroo an incredible place for my son! I really couldn't ask for more caring, wonderful people to help raise him. Thank you for all you do!! I would recommend Koalaroo to anyone!!"

"Koalaroo is a fantastic preschool for all the reasons current and past parents already know: caring teachers, excellent programming, wonderful freshly on-site cooked, by a real chef, meals (and not simply microwave warmed-up prepackaged snacks as majority of other centres do). However they are furthermore outstanding for how far their caring for each individual child extends: to also include, with open arms, children with a variety of learning and developmental disabilities, and to help them thrive alongside their 'neurotypical peers', as equal and valued participants. They also work with different teams of support workers that such children may have access to - such as Simcoe County resource and support workers, as well as private therapists that may have been hired by the families - to incorporate their support for the child right into the daily programming and experiences the child is receiving at the preschool, while also benefiting from regular interaction with their peers. This makes them unparallelled in not only sincere caring for the child's well-being, but willingness to accept challenges above simply providing 'regular childcare'. (and their 'regular childcare' is far and above the rest, too!) Thank you, Koalaroo! "

"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."

"Mrs. Meechan, We couldn't be more grateful for our time at Koalaroo. Both our kids were so well cared for while also gaining a complete love for learning. Your program, special events, meals, EVERYTHING Is amazing. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for starting our kids' learning journey in such a positive way. We will see you for some fun this Summer! Abby, Jackson, Ryan and Katherine"

"Koalaroo Preschool truly is the best place you can take your kids. The environment is one of stimulation and fun. The teachers are amazing, so nurturing and at the same so good at giving the kids a head start on school. The home cooked meals on site have gotten my kids eating things that I never would have imagined them eating like they do. Koalaroo really is very much my kids' home away from home."

"Dear Annie, Everyday Steve and I have been grateful for you, Chef Steve and the past and present staff at Koalaroo. You have given our girls, and countless other children an incredible start to their education journey. You have created a safe and loving space and we will always be proud to have been part of the 'Koalaroo Family'. Love, Mindy, Steve, Charlotte and Emily"

"Koalaroo has been a warm, nurturing place for our son. He adores his cool Aussie teacher Mrs. Meechan. Annie brings tons of professional and personal experience to her school. Our son loves Mr. Meechan's yummy lunches and asks for 2-3 helpings!!"
