- Reading Google reviews about the centres: this is important to see other perspectives on the early learning centre
- Understanding the type of curriculum the centres follow: depending on what early learning experience you want for your child, it is worthwhile researching the curriculums of each centre you are interested in as some centres are more academic based while others are play based
- Enquiring about what is included in the daily rate: this is to ensure you are not selling yourself short and can get the most value out of the early learning centre
