“MyKindy has been the best choice for my daughter's daycare. Before enrolling, my husband and I visited every ECE center in the area and reviewed recent reports from the Education Review Office. MyKindy stood out as our top choice, and we couldn't be happier with it. My daughter is thriving and well cared for. The teachers are fantastic and have taught her her first words in Māori, English, and even sign language. The meals are healthy, well-balanced, and delicious—my picky eater always asks for more. The staff organize wonderful events, like a recent disco party, that involve the whole family and create a welcoming environment. MyKindy truly feels like home for all of us.”
“I enrolled my daughter here when we moved in the area. This was the 3rd daycare she was enrolled in mainly due to my work and convenience. Took a while to find a daycare I can completely trust my daughter with due to her diary allergies and the fact that she doesn't settle well. We visited a few day cares around the area and none i felt was right for her, then a friend recommended we check out Galaxy, from the moment we set foot in the school to the process of enrolment, everything was so smooth and easy. The centre manager at the time was lovely and just sat and listen as I explained my concerns and what I want for my daughter. The place was clean and I loved how open and spacious it was. The teachers were friendly and I love how diverse and multi cultural galaxy is. My daughter settled right in and the communication was clear and they knew when to call me if my daughter would accidentally comes in contact with diary products. We will surely miss this centre and the lovely teachers and children. Thank you Galaxy Childcare - Mahia for the 3 wonderful years my daughter was there. She really enjoyed it and I felt comfortable to leave her in your care all these years :)”
“I rate this daycare so highly, my son is 3.5years and has been going since he was 7 months old. My son is very excited everyday because of the teachers and staff are so welcome and nurturing. It’s amazing to see how well children can succeed in such a loving environment. Everyday a healthy and fresh cooked meal is provided meeting all of our child’s nutritional needs. Highly recommended Nurture Early Learning Centre to all parents who are looking for a well-rounded, supportive learning environment for their child.”
“My Son started going to Go bananas Papatoetoe since last 2 months and I am overwhelmed with the care provided at the centre to my 10 month old baby- Special thanks to the teacher Kiran( My Son’s first and favourite teacher) from babies room- She is very kindhearted, very well trained and look after kids as her own. She is so humble and empathetic towards all kids and As a first time mom- that’s what matters all to me. I am very happy that my son is very well settled and enjoying his time at the centre.”
“My daughter was enrolled in Learning tree hobsonville since last year. She has been enjoyed her life there with so many good friends and nice teachers. My younger one also enrolled there after he turned 8 months. He was unbelievably well-cared by the lovely teachers, gaining confidence and new skills much faster than before. I cannot recommend more.”
“My son goes here and he absolutely loves his friends and teachers, he was real shy at first, but his classmates and teachers really helped bring the happiness out of him”
“We've been here with our 3 kids a couple of times now and we've had a great time! The kids loved it! There is a lot of variety in the activities and the food is awesome. Highly recommend.”
“My daughter had a wonderful birthday party at MagicLoft! The food and the decorations were perfect (I just used their default decorations in the package and brought some Stitch balloons).”
“We cannot fault the treatment our son received at Starship any of the times we’ve visited. Our concerns and his wellbeing were always taken incredibly seriously. The doctors, nurses and even triage staff at reception deserve so much more recognition for the outstanding work they do.”
“Chipmunks is awesome. The birthday rooms are light and spacious, the play areas, my daughter loved and said there was so much to do and keep them busy. The staff were lovely, the coffee was good and the food, ice creams and snacks available were great!”
“Absolutely delighted with our experience at Amber Early Learning Centre! From the moment we walked in, we knew we had found the perfect place for our little one to flourish. The staff at Amber are exceptional in every sense – warm, caring, and truly dedicated to nurturing each child's individuality. What truly sets them apart is the love and genuine care they pour into every child. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a nurturing, enriching, and positively vibrant early learning experience for their child.”
“Excellent childcare, the staff are so good! Our boy loves it there.”
“We had my son’s 3rd birthday here over the weekend and it was such a great experience. Everything was handled really well and I didn’t have to worry about anything at all. The party host Kaira was so attentive and lovely and made us all feel very welcome. The rooms was decorated nicely , the food was all out very quick and the kids had so much fun! Thanks so much! We will be back for sure :)”
“We take the kids here for Saturday basketball - the coaches are great and the kids have got a lot from these sessions. recommend!”
“I work near the area and it is quite convenient to have a Childcare center very close to my workplace. My daughter loves Brightsparks Childcare center and she asks me everyday including weekends “is it schooltime?” I truly recommend this place as the people who work there make you feel family. The moment you step in the center, you already know that your child is in the care of wonderful people. I see the teachers care for each one of them and really focus on their different needs. They also involve the parents by providing workshops for them to know what they do at the Center and also guide you how playtime plays a crucial part of learning and development. They even have field trips, which I enjoy with my daughter. I am a solo mum with no relatives in NZ, and Brightsparks have helped me a lot in developing my daughters social confidence and learning development!”
“I wrote this letter to said thank you all the teachers at go banana that helped my son very well. My son been there childcare over 1 years already. All teachers are friendly and teach my son so good ,look after him very well. Now my son knows lot of things and understand a lot too. I am very happy.”
“Had a great experience with my children here. Staff were young but did great, lots of patience with my 4 boys and everyone else. Found staff Really helpful with kids asking 100s of questions and just being kids. Definitely be back”
“Profoundly upset & frustrated to learn that The Warehouse has been been strong-armed out of Milford Mall, despite the Group's offer of favourable financial terms & the overwhelming support of locals in the area. We are losing the ONLY outlet providing DIY, Gardening, Furniture, Crafts, Home/Kitchen Ware, Appliances, Tech, - to name a few. It's a lovely, peaceful place with delightful ambiance. The last thing we need is a gym!”
“Second time coming to Pakuranga Chipmunks, each time was on my daughter’s birthday. We arrived on a Friday just after 09:30am and although it was a cloudy, wet and cold day…. The moment you enter the store you are welcomed with a ray of fun music and lights, a perfect way to spend your days indoor. My 2 year old enjoyed her time so much we stayed until 1:30pm! There’s a baby area with soft padded floors for your baby to crawl there way around and explore, there’s a 0-5 playground with sensory toys, musical piano, slide, and an upstairs playground with mirror maze, trampoline, walking rope and more slides - adults can fit too, I managed to comfortably explore alongside my 2 year old daughter, very study platforms. At an extra cost there are machine rides too. There’s also a 5-11 years area/playground that looked fun, we did explore the lower levels which had a large ball pit with a huge interactive screen projector where you throw the balls to eliminate the animal. If your child gets a bit bored of this playground there are arcade games along the back end of the store (extra cost) and a mini basketball court too. There are ample seats and tables close by to playgrounds. We ordered food from the cafe, for $39 I got the chicken burger combo & chicken nugget combo. A bit on the expensive side but the chicken burger was delicious (buns were soft and fresh) and they do have good coffee. Toilets were spotless and clean, a separate changing room for babies as well and a cool feature that I noticed was an area tucked around the corner from the cafe (outside of party room areas) was a set of comfy couches which is perfect for our breastfeeding māma’s who needed a comfortable private space to BF baby without the distractions of kids running around. Shoutout to the lovely owners for their awesome customer service, the lovely lady April was so attentive and I wish their business well for the future. Highly reccommend”
“I have changed over to my prescription meds pickup to Chemist Warehouse Silverdale recently as prices are way better and the stock is 5x larger than regular pharmacies. It is always busy there with plenty of helpful staff often stocking up shelves. Most know where stuff is.”
“My daughter has been going to Childspace for two years and we have been so happy with it. The teachers are amazing, nurturing and so friendly. Our daughter often comes home wanting to show or teach us something that she learnt at Childspace that day and it gives us the confidence that she is going to be well prepared for starting school next year. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Childspace to anyone looking for quality daycare.”
“My little toddler absolutely loves coming to Little Ranges daycare! She is THRIVING under their care. The attention and genuine love they give her everyday has transformed our little 1 year old and we are so so grateful we found them! A bit of a back story is we moved her from another daycare (one of the most well known ones in Henderson Heights) because I noticed she’s just not as happy as she used to be, it just wasn’t the right fit. So I was sooo pleased that ever since she started going to Little Ranges she has FLOURISHED! Love the team at little ranges thank you for loving our girl! If you are looking for a team who will truly be your partner in raising your child, look no further than Little ranges :) 10 star all the way!!”
“Fantastic, inclusive environment. We greatly value and appreciate the entire team at Aubrey for taking such great care of both our boys the last few years, if we still lived closer we wouldn't be moving. We will miss you. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality childcare.”
“I could not recommend this amazing center enough. Both of my girls have been there since 5-6months old. That is their second home! The teachers are caring, loving and incredibly talented and not to brag but the owner of the center is nothing but amazing! A second mummy to my kids and all of them there too! They are setting our kids up for success, the things the implement for the kids learning is honesty hands down phenomenal!!”
“The Miller Nest Early Learning Centre and it's team is so full of love for the children and their whanau it's just beautiful. It's truly a home away from home. Love and respect can be clearly seen in each and every interaction that takes place here. You can't go wrong with The Miller Nest.”
“This is such a wonderful Day Care. My son went here for 2 years and had a great time. The cost is very reasonable, and they get fed. They have lovely celebrations. Great teachers and good communication. Thank you to Uptown Kids.”
“We couldn't be happier! Our 3-year-old daughter absolutely loves going every day — she comes home smiling, singing songs she’s learned, and telling us about all her little adventures. The teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment where every child feels safe and valued. We've seen so much growth in her confidence, communication, and creativity since she started. The activities are thoughtfully planned, balancing play, learning, and social development beautifully. It's such a wonderful feeling as a parent to know that your child is genuinely happy, loved, and thriving. We are so grateful to the amazing team and highly recommend them to any family looking for a place where their little one will be truly cared for.”
“We love this daycare! It provides a nice environment with excellent, patient teachers. My son's language skills have improved significantly, and he learns a lot every day. The teachers regularly give feedback on the children's progress, which we really appreciate.”
“My daughter is really happy here, and we’ve had such a great experience. The teachers are caring, creative, and passionate—you can tell they truly love what they do. The space is big and welcoming, with plenty of room for kids to play and explore. The facilities are great too. Definitely recommend!”
“Very friendly staff. Kiddo loves the teachers and has a blast every day. Multi-lingual teachers. Frequent Community activities. Great families.”
