This is owned by a conglomerate organisation. This became evident when there was an incident with my son which took 4 months to investigate and was never fully resolved, partly because it was so slow, and partly because it was managed very poorly. It was if they didn't even care what had happened, even though it was clear one of their staff had lost their temper.
Staffing is inconsistent which is what probably led to the incident in the first place. My son is much happier now we've moved to another centre.
UPDATE: there was a second incident and this staff member has since been let go. Should have happened the first time but better late than never.
The government investigation found that this centre was not compliant and they are now being monitored.
ANOTHER UPDATE: A number of students have moved from this centre to my new centre and the staff say that all the kids they get from the learning sanctuary centre push, punch and hit other kids. It takes months for the staff to help these babies and children learn to act with proper kindness and patience again. This is a reflection of the lack of care given to the interaction of the children at this centre.

Although my child attended The Learning Sanctuary only for a short time, our experience has been great. They allowed ample time to for the orientation, not based on a schedule, but on my child's needs. The room leader was communicative, made a true effort to get to know my child and I could tell that she really cared. The centre has their own chef who cooks nutritious meals for the kids and dietary requirements can easily be met. The room was bright, toys are diverse and plentiful and they have a large outdoor area. Would definitely recommend!

Wonderful centre, very clean and with a lot of space for the Kids to play and learn. My daughter loves her carer María and she loves going to childcare. Also very nice food by the Chef!

The Learning Sanctuary Brighton is such a wonderful childcare for our children 3 years and 1 year of age. We absolutely love it. The educators are so attentive (with their constant updates of our children's daily needs met through the app) and they're very caring. They include daily photos of my children too. Which puts my mind at ease to see that they're well cared for and taught a variety of different things.
I love how the children can join in with the cooking with chef Mario on different occasions. There are steps leading up to the counter top which is fantastic and very inclusive which encourages a love for cooking.
I love the Learning Sanctuary Brighton. It's the best place to send my children!

Such a wonderful clean and bright facility. Lots of positive changes from when we were there a couple of years ago, e.g. The carer ration appears to have increased. Love the current centre manager - Kayla. We are in the Kindergarten room and Rosemary, Mikayla and others have been so attentive and caring to our little one who has difficulty settling in every day! Lots of individual attention. Thank you so much.

My son has been so a few centres, but when it comes to The Learning Sanctury.just WOW! No other day care centre compares. They have set the bar extremely high thanks to their new and up to date facilities, the amazing teachers and staff, the way they communicate with parents and how they structure our children's day (eg, yoga for mindfulness, or cooking class with Mario!). Special thanks to Rosemari who is by far one of the best child educators i have ever come across and Mel who has been so supportive and caring through a bumpy 2020. Keep being amazing and we will miss you next year. Love C and c.xx

This is the nest daycare we found in this area.

Easy access, perfect facility and health chef cooked food for the kids.

They have high quality staff that are bilingual, really helped our kids settle in and continue their learning from home.

Happy and nurturing place for the kids to be.

Wow - What a wonderful facility.
You can tell how much the educators love and adore each child, so clearly passionate about their jobs.
The young lady at reception, Naydene has been so helpful and accommodating to my families needs.
We can not wait to start here later on in the year.

Fantastic centre, love the staff, all the activities and Mario cooks the kids amazing food. This is our second Learning Sanctuary experience and we have loved both (only changed centres because we moved houses). Highly recommend this centre for child care!

A fantastic day care centre. I always get regular updates about my 10 month old along with pictures of her partaking in different activities. The centre is clean, modern and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely incredible facility. The two managers at reception were very friendly and accommodating. All the staff were extremely cheerful when doing the tour with my wife which was refreshing to see - they all really seemed to genuinely care about the children in their care and the visitors.

The Learning Sanctuary in Brighton is fantastic. A brand new purpose built facility, with staff and educators that are focused on developing and delivering programs to help little ones minds grow.

From the first day - our 3.5 yr old has been infinitely more engaged than his previous centre:
- enjoying the expansive inside/outside spaces
- loving the other facilities like the very thoughtful toddlers kitchen bench where they help the chef prepare and bake food
- dedicated arts and crafts rooms
- daily incursions from yoga teacher/musician etc to help nurture their creative skills

Very happy we made the move - and look forward to to seeing the little one develop even further under amazing nurturing conditions

We love The Learning Sanctuary family. Our son has attended the Ashwood centre and now that we have moved we relocated him to Brighton. The educators and staff are amazing and so loving with our son. We could not have asked for an easier, smoother transition and the level of care he gets is exceptional. He loves going to child care and it makes drop off time stress free. Thank you for all the love and care you have for our son.
