Child space in Auckland

“Amazing child care, my son started his day care journey when he was 7 month old but I was not happy with the care taken at previous daycare so when my son was 2.5 year old, I changed his day care and started going at child's time. I always think it would be really amazing if I would have started my son's daycare journey from child's time and not with another day care. Amazing teachers, friendly environment. I do not have enough words to describe how much safe my son feel here.”

“I am extremely pleased with the care and support my child receives at Young World Childcare Center. The teachers are nurturing and genuinely invested in helping children grow both mentally and physically. In a short span of time, my son has developed strong social skills and achieved his set milestones, which is truly impressive. One of the things I appreciate most is the daily updates from the teachers, keeping me informed about his activities and progress. They have built a wonderful relationship with my child, making him feel safe, valued, and happy. The warm welcome each morning makes drop-offs so much easier, knowing he is in such caring hands. I highly recommend Young World Childcare Center to any parent looking for a supportive and enriching environment for their child!”

“Our daughter absolutely loves coming to Kids Cove Newmarket! She has been attending for the past 9 months, and we couldn’t be happier. The staff are so friendly and caring, and the environment is fun, educational, and safe. We've seen great improvement in her confidence and language skills. So grateful to have found this wonderful place!”

“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.”

“I couldn’t speak more highly of A Child’s Place. We enrolled our one-year-old son after a tough experience at a previous centre, so I was naturally cautious. But Megan and the incredible infant room team went above and beyond to ensure he felt safe, settled, and genuinely cared for. One thing that really stood out to us was the primary caregiving model — having a consistent teacher who took the lead in building a strong bond with our son made a huge difference, especially as he wasn’t very familiar or comfortable with others in the beginning. He now looks forward to daycare each day — his face lights up at the mention of his teachers’ names, he runs off happily at drop-off, and I’m always greeted with the biggest smile at pick-up. The teachers are constantly engaged with the kids — whether they’re on the floor reading, outside exploring, or sitting alongside them at mealtimes, you can tell the care is genuine. The centre itself is always spotless and well-organised, and the team are incredibly responsive to any needs or changes we’ve raised. We were especially grateful for the support and advice they offered when we were navigating some sleep struggles. The care and attention to detail in sharing updates, milestones (big and small), and daily happenings make it feel like so much more than just childcare — it’s a true community and family. I’ll be forever grateful to Megan, Ross, and the team for creating such a warm, nurturing environment, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend A Child’s Place to anyone”

“This is my placement centre. the most perfect one in my heart, truly embodying the principles of Te Whāriki and Pikler . When you’re here, you can feel that every teacher is joyful, gentle, and patient, genuinely respecting and listening to the children’s needs. In this loving environment, the children become independent and caring toward one another. I have learned so much here.”

“We're so happy to have chosen The Learning Space to look after our 6 month old and haven't looked back once. Care takers have a genuine passion for helping children grow, become independent and learn great values. We always have 100% trust in every one there. The concept and philosophy at TLS are very special and unique, definitely worth checking out when considering daycare centres.”

“Our 2 year old daughter started here 3 months ago and we are absolutely thrilled with this centre. It’s a wonderful, big, happy and exciting environment for the kids while also being surprisingly calm, and the teachers are truly wonderful. They have all been so kind and caring and have really helped to ease the transition for our daughter who has been nervous about starting kindy. You can tell that they are all truly caring and wonderful teachers. The centre also has a great routine with the kids and is well managed and privately owned which I think is a big benefit. Highly recommend.”

“Kiddywinkles has been the best decision we made when my little one was 10months old and just graduated from there at age 5 this year. Highly recommend this daycare if you're around westgate with lovely teachers, generous space for your little ones to explore, engaging activities each day. Thank you Kiddywinkles for being Kyra's best years ♥️”

“Both my grand children, 1 and 3 years old go to this daycare and they are in love with their teachers. The environment is very clean and pleasant. They provide great education with high values.Thanks”

“My son has gone here since he was 1.5 and he’s now 4! There’s no one I trust more with my son and every staff member is so passionate about kids. The daycare is always well kept and I am always amazed with all the new things that they teach the children. Couldn’t have picked a better centre and I recommend it more to anyone.”

“Beststart Oraha has been incredible care and education for my daughter for over 3 years. The teachers are caring, passionate and the centre feels like an extension of home and part of the community.”

“Our son and daughter both love the staff and children at ROCC. The team create a fun nurturing safe environment for the kids to learn and explore. Love that the kids are encouraged to be active, use their imaginations and get messy. The staff and management team are extremely open, flexible and supportive. We often need to change days or increase or decrease due to our schedules and they team are always so accommodating.”

“Have loved Kidz Kampus!! Had my daughter with them for almost 3 years and loved every second of it. Exceptional teachers and always felt like my daughter is in the best care! Highly recommend Kidz Kampus!”

“I, Krishan, assert with confidence that Adventureland stands as the optimal choice in the locality for nursery education. The staff exhibits excellence, comprising highly qualified and experienced teachers. Aman, the head of Adventureland, demonstrates exceptional support and understanding towards individuals and their circumstances, as well as the developmental levels of children. Witnessing significant improvement in my child within a brief duration, culminating in a heartwarming graduation ceremony and birthday celebration last week, I extend heartfelt gratitude to Aman, Carla, Maria, Ruwini, and all staff members. I wholeheartedly recommend Adventureland Early Childhood center to all.”

“Biggles is an excellent daycare. My son has been attending for 18 months and my younger son will start next year. The staff are a cut above the rest! They are caring, genuine, down-to-earth, good-natured and really engage with the children, setting up lots of activities every day that are both fun and educational. They’re also not afraid to get messy! Biggles has a homely, welcoming feel, perfect for making little ones feel at ease, and a huge outdoor space, particularly for the over twos. Communication with parents is good and you get photo updates throughout the week of what the children have been up to. Having looked at quite a few daycare centres in the area, Biggles felt right – unpretentious, friendly, a hive of joyful learning and a place I am comfortable and happy to leave my child – and he is happy to be there!”

“Eduplay Westgate is a great centre! My daughter has been going there since she was 11 months old, the transition at the begging was very smooth. The teachers are so loving and caring, the centre is very clean. What I love the most is that they always hold events for the whole family to join, the most recent ones are Matariki Night and Mother’s Day event. Can’t wait for the next fun event!”

“I'm a parent of two children (11 y.o. and 4 y.o.), and both of them have attended this childcare. Honestly, I can’t praise the team enough for the incredible work they do with the kids. This year, many children moved on to school, and it was so heartwarming to see whole teams of teachers attending 5th birthday parties to celebrate and show their support. That says so much about the strong relationships they build. The teaching team has remained consistent over the years. When my younger child started, I already knew everyone—which gave me a great sense of trust. More importantly, the team works well together, they are genuinely happy in their roles, and they clearly love what they do. That joy and commitment reflect in how much they achieve with the children. I absolutely recommend this place. You can trust them with your little ones. Even if the building doesn’t look the flashiest from the outside, inside it’s full of love, care, and real focus on the wellbeing of both children and staff.”

“Eskdale Treehouse is such a lovely daycare. 2 of my children attend and have been for the last few years. They are caring, respectful, considerate, helpful, thoughtful, informative and offer a super fun environment with lots of activities and cultural events. It didn't take long for my kids to settle in and they love going (and have made some great friends). It will be sad to say goodbye when my preschooler heads to school soon. They are very diligent with allergies too which is fantastic as my son has several and it was a bit scary sending him initially. They are also open throughout the school holidays which is amazing - they are hard workers. Nicky has also been very kind/accommodating to our family after I had my 3rd which I will always appreciate, thank you. So I highly recommend Treehouse. It has been a fantastic daycare and have been very happy to send my 2 here :)”

“My son is very happy here at Beststart Whangaparaoa. The staff are kind and caring, my son has a good bond with all of them. I know he’s in good hands when I leave. He’s happy, confident and thriving there. Would recommend Best Start Whangaparaoa to everyone!”

“Playday is such a special place. The Kaiako are so warm and nurturing to the children and really take the time to know them and bond with them. My son is so happy there, we love this centre and highly recommend it!”

“We have our son (4y) and daughter (1.5y) at BestStart Remuera road. I really feel like we hit the jackpot with this daycare. There is a real focus on our daughter's development in the baby room. They really care about her and she loves going everyday. I have noticed her recently excelling in her speech and even has started identifying colours. I was so nervous at first as it took her a while to settle – the staff were calm and reassured me of what is normal and I'm glad to now see her toddle in willingly! In the 2y and over room it's mixed ages like that of Kindergarten and they have started a "school ready" program for the 4y+ preschoolers. I feel like my own IQ has been bolstered by what my son has learnt over the past few months. He knows so much about the solar system and has started writing his name. The expertise the teachers here bring is definitely more than I ever hoped for. More than happy with Remuera Road!”

“I love this daycare center ! From my sister, to my niece and now my daughter, each experience better than the last ! My daughter who is a very active, energetic and often times easily distracted child, is constantly learning new things and retaining so much information since starting here. They have a great daily routine that helps us keep her on schedule. Their indoor as well as outdoor setup is amazing, mostly handmade and crafted out of recycled goods. Last but not least the phenomenal teachers that make up this school ! They are incredibly welcoming, friendly and caring ! My daughter is safe, so loved and has absolutely flourished since being here ! I would highly recommend this location to anyone !”

“We couldn’t be happier with the wonderful experience all 3 of our children had whilst attending Treetops ELC Botany. The staff became our family , treated our children with nothing but love and kindness . Delicious healthy meals provided daily and amazing activities and learning experiences for the children to enjoy. Beautiful memories created that we will treasure always. We highly recommend Treetops to all ❤️”

“I'm so glad we chose Just Kidz Ormiston as our daughter's daycare, I was a bit anxious putting her into daycare as she is our first baby but the whole team at Just Kidz Ormiston made me and our family feel so comfortable, they are all so kind and caring, my daughter settled in really well and she absolutely loves all her teachers. Sadly, we are moving out of Auckland, which is the only reason we are leaving, otherwise I would be more than happy for her to stay here until she begins Primary School. I highly recommend Just Kidz Ormiston for anyone who is looking for a daycare :)”

“My daughter is very happy here and has made some good friends. Her carers are friendly and approachable and the centre is willing to invite feedback and improve services to help foster development at every stage. There is a great outdoor play area at the centre, as it's an older building and has a bit more space. I would also give credit to the events the centre plans and the level of effort that goes into bringing families together.”

“Hi, this best start teachers and other staff members are really very nice and helpful …….. you guys are doing a great job…. Its just like a family members …… I don’t have more words to explain …. I will just say that it’s really very nice take care place for my baby ….. Thank you to all teachers and staff members ……..”
