Child center in Auckland

“Sent our son to Magical years for a few months. A wonderful centre with kind and supportive staff!”

“I cannot recommend New Shoots Coatesville highly enough. Our little one started at eight months & from our first visit we felt so confident in the wonderful team looking after her. She absolutely loved her time at the Centre & we felt so happy about her care, experiences & opportunities. The imaginative & varied activities have been wonderful, she slept better at daycare than home & the homecooked food was a huge hit. Every single member of staff is a credit to the Centre. We also loved our daily updates on the Storypark app. The team were great at adapting & focusing on individual children's needs & we have seen our little one blossom during her time with the team. We have left the area & so New Shoots & leaving was the hardest part of our move. Our next daycare has so much to live up to! Thank you to the whole team.”

“Choosing Apple Tree for our boy has been one of the best decisions we’ve made and we’re so confident in the care and quality they provide that we’ll be enrolling our second child in the coming months. The centre is warm, welcoming, and well-equipped, but what truly sets it apart is the incredible team of teachers. They are kind, supportive, and deeply committed to each child’s development. From the very beginning, we found them approachable and attentive, always taking the time to work closely with our child and support his learning journey. Over the years, we’ve watched our boy grow into a confident, curious, and happy young learner. The strong values, friendships, and early education he received at Apple Tree have given him a wonderful foundation as he prepares for primary school. We wholeheartedly recommend Apple Tree to any family looking for a nurturing, high-quality childcare centre. The love, care, and dedication of the staff have left a lasting impact on our family, and we’re truly grateful for the start our boy had here.”

“My son is currently enrolled at Tiny Stars and I cant tell how you much my son has learnt especially in the past year at Tiny Stars. Though he's playful at home, his attitude changes as soon as the gate opens and it's like he's a different person. He honestly loves Tiny Stars he sometimes doesn't want to leave. The staff there too are also friendly, they keep you in the loop of your child's learning and they really value the child's learning.”

“Highly recommend this learning centre. Staff are very nice and very attentive, centre is very well kept, clean, and the learning here is brilliant! Our eldest went here and now our younger two. Daily updates and you can trust everything is done within ECE guidelines. Lovely daycare and kindergarten!”

“Learning Star Preschool is one of the best centers my son has been to. From the moment you speak to Farhana you will instantly feel reassured & content that your child will be okay. All the teachers are nurturing, kind, compasionate towards the children & I witnessed this firsthand with my child. They also send you updates if not daily so you are always at ease. My boy has had the best time at the center that he will cry to go in even when is unwell. I also have my 6month old newly enrolled & feel so confident that he will be taken off well. Thank you so so much Farhana & your team!”

“Waitakere Kindy has been the best kindy for both my girls. The teachers are the best and the environment including the large outdoor play area are awesome. The transition from kindy to school went smoothly for my now school aged daughter but I know will be the same with my 4 year old. I’d recommend Waitakere kindy to anyone!”

“I can't sing the praises of Belmont Bayswater Kindy enough. The teachers understand and have a genuine interest in their student's wellbeing and development. The centre itself is completely set up for active, curious kids with different activities and equipment to engage your child. If Kindy hours can work for you, I'd completely recommend BBK.”

“My daughter has been looking after very well here... very friendly and caring teachers..homely environment which assured and giving me satisfaction of leaving my child in safe hands...Supportive management in all the aspects...”

“Stella kids has been great for our two kids. Healthy meals, a homely environment and the best back yard! Lots of fun nature play we will miss you all when we go to school!”

“Both my boys have absolutely thrived at Busy Bees. The teachers are extremely kind, the kids have such a great bond with them all! I would absolutely recommend this centre to anyone looking!”

“My first child joined when he was around 11 months old, we were obviously nervous and didn't really know what to expect. We were put at ease when our son settled in really well. All of the teachers have been consistently lovely the entire time we've been there (1.5 years now), always taking the time to talk to us if we have any questions or concerns, and just friendly in general. They seem calm and happy when we drop off and pick up, and we feel confident our child is in good hands. The owner is also calm and present at the centre and is also always approachable for any questions/concerns. The pricing is also very affordable. We are so grateful that we have had such a good experience at Happy Kids!”

“Flying Kiwi has been our absolute go-to for three of our kids, and there's no doubt it'll be the same for our fourth! Samuel, who's now 8, and Noahkai, now 6, both went there, and Elijah is still attending. It’s been nothing but good vibes all around—from the staff to the way they teach. You can tell the team really loves what they do, and honestly, I couldn’t imagine our kids going anywhere else. Total legends! If you're looking for a place that feels like home for your kids, Flying Kiwi is it. We'll be sending our youngest, Lucius, there when he's of age! ❤️”

“We get the Best Care for my Little toddler , the teachers are very professional and innovative. They have a very nice setup and facilities. I strongly recommend super kids. My baby couldn’t be happier any where else.”

“I highly recommend this centre - you know for sure your child is safe here, the multicultural environment is perfect for our little learners, the staff are always so welcoming and respectful. I appreciate this place and the staff so much for always providing a safe space and fun learning environment for my child.”

“As a Mum of two sons who have attended Piccolo Park Mt Wellington, I can not rate this centre highly enough. From day one, it's been evident that this place is something special. The teachers are not just educators; they're genuine caregivers who go above and beyond to make sure every child feels loved and nurtured. The curriculum is top-notch, and it's clear that a lot of thought and care goes into what they teach the children. From educational activities to creative play, every moment is designed to inspire and engage young minds. What's more, their communication with parents is exceptional. We always feel informed and involved in our children's learning journey through all of the Educa updates and learning stories. One aspect that truly sets Piccolo Park apart is their celebration of diversity. They are not only aware of different cultures but actively celebrate them, creating a rich and inclusive environment where children learn to appreciate and respect one another's backgrounds. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our experience at Piccolo Park Mt Wellington. It's not just a childcare center; it's a second home where our children thrive and grow every day. Thank you to the amazing staff for their dedication and love!”

“Baby started at 10 moths and we havent looked back. He loves it and we feel super comfortable with him there. Teachers are very loving”

“Very inviting and welcoming centre where all parents and children are cared for and valued. Lovely environment and staff are amazing with the little ones.”

“Since the current owner Roly took over, this place is way better. I feel my child is looked after well, more closer care. She has lots of knowledge, explains well with questions. Therefore this helps me well to plan of child development. I’d recommend here especially if you have first child.”

“Thank you Hands at Play this is a very good daycare I had my two children here and they finished this year and the primary school teachers are very happy with my children and their progress. Thank you so much”

“We are blessed to have our child attending this preschool. She settled in very well from day one even though we came from another country. I can tell from a lot of details that this is a loving and caring place. Educators are passionate to work here and kids here and their parents are lovely. A wonderful experience for all of us.”

“A happy place for our younger daughter. This is just home for her, a day filled with lots of activities to enjoy.She has been learning a lot of new words. Teachers have been excellent, they are quiet playful and deal with a lot of patience. I would highly recommend this daycare, anyone who is looking for a safe,secure & happy place for their child..My elder daughter has also been to this daycare. Dinkar & Gargi”

“My daughter attended Biggles for 3 years and loved it. Very friendly and whanau focused centre. Teachers are well informed, connected and caring. Thank you all so very much!”

“The staff here are truly incredible and really care about the children's development and wellbeing. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an early childhood centre in West Auckland”

“The staff are what makes Belmont Learning Space so great. Mayzie started at 5 months of age and the team made the transition so easy for her and me! Even though she was quite young to start daycare, it was easy to see she was in the best of hands and happy. I was able to head back to work with confidence knowing she was well looked after. Even Mayzie’s Grandma who’s been a kindergarten teacher for 40 years thinks BLS is one of the best early learning centers around. Their communication is excellent and I can not recommend this place enough. We are so so lucky to have a place like BLS in our Neighborhood.”

“We don’t have family in New Zealand so our family is now the teachers at KidsCo. We are so thankful and grateful for the love and care we receive. Both our kids love going and we love seeing them grow up together!”
