“Having brought two girls through Bluebird has been a great experience. Apart from the deep nurturing and loving care for our children, I have been blown away by the sense of community and friendships formed by us as parents and our children. We all belong to this family!”

Karien Alberts

“Bluebird manages to strike the perfect balance between nurturing and empowering and that is what makes it such a safe space for children and parents alike. During my children’s time there I have watched both of them grow in confidence while becoming more of themselves. Bluebird celebrates the individual while fostering a sense of family. It has been a privilege being part of that family.”
