If you are looking for a daycare that is all about community, connection, respect and embracing diversity, then Te Whare Rama is for you. It really is a hidden gem, neither showy nor flash, but with plenty of space, an amazing outdoor area, and ever changing activities. There is a functional team of caring, approachable, and dedicated teachers who take their time to truly get to know each child and meet them where they are at as individuals. The teachers focus on building meaningful relationships with the kids and their families, and support the children to do the same with each other. The center takes pride in the diverse heritage of teachers and families alike, celebrating and honoring all the different cultures that come together here. The flexible hours (no set sessions) are a plus!

We have been a part of the Te Whare Rama Balcairn St family for over 3 years and could not recommend them enough. The teachers are so caring and genuinely interested in sparking our child's imagination and supporting them to expand on their interests and learning journey. They have amazing facilities and are constantly making wee tweaks and changes to keep the environment engaging for the children and offering appropriate and differing levels of challenges, especially in their outdoor play area. All of the staff are very approachable and we have always felt well supported in our preschool years.

Te Whare Rama nursery and preschool is a hidden gem! While they may not have all the flashy extras, what they do have is far more valuable: an incredibly nurturing and respectful team of people. The teachers here genuinely care about each child as an individual, taking the time to understand their unique interests and strengths. Guiding children through any challenges they may face, they are excellent at creating a supportive and encouraging environment. It's clear that the focus is on helping every child thrive in their own way. Highly recommend!

We are so happy with both the nursery and preschool. The teachers show such a genuine and caring interest in my children and are passionate about supporting their learning. My son initially struggled with friendships and the teachers did an amazing job at discussing this with me and supporting him to make friends. I will be sad for his time to end there when he goes to school, but am thankful my daughter can continue on there. I highly recommend Te Whare Rama Balcairn Street!!
