Children's entertainment center in Auckland

“One of the best centres out there. All the staff are friendly, diligent and maintains a fun atmosphere for the children. Communication and regular updates are also something the centre does so well- keep up the great work.”

“Wonderful people to work with, always looking out for the kid's making sure they are happy and having fun! We love to dance and sing. Making things and seeing how they work, sand castle's and deep holes in the sand. Lovely food for the kid's and sleep time too. Ready for story time, how are your A B C's? Come and see for yourself!”

“My son has been attending Little Royals Montessori Preschool since they opened. He absolutely loves his time there. As a mom, I am always concerned about who I leave my son with, and I can't recommend the amazing staff enough. They provide genuine care, healthy food, diapers, and everything my son needs on a daily basis. The weekly activities are well-planned, and the communication with the staff is excellent.”

“I just want to say that this is such a wonderful place. It is friendly, cosy, warm and has that family sense that I was looking for. My mums has been looking after my baby since she was born, I was worried that my girl wouldn't adapt to the day care environment as she has been so attached to my mum. However the lovely staff make us feel like at home. We love you guys.”

“Came to check out with friend for her kid to enroll. A great child care centre. Everyone is so friendly and helpful with, felt this will be another home away from home for kids. Great!”

“We are really happy with Busy Bees Onehunga. The teachers are wonderful, caring, and supportive, and the manager runs everything so well. They always provide great updates about our child’s learning and personal development, which makes us feel very confident and comfortable. Our child enjoys coming here every day, and we truly appreciate the positive environment they have created. Highly recommend this center!”

“The teachers at our place are awesome. My 2 year old has learned so many things there. Highly recommend!!”

“We've had friends who have sent there childen to A Step Ahead and highly recommended them. We've already booked in our child into the centre when they are old enough.”

“I can’t speak highly enough of Shining Stars . It has been an absolute blessing for our whānau. The ECC teachers go above and beyond for our tamariki, showing incredible patience, compassion, and dedication to teaching them so much more than I ever expected. They nurture not just learning but also confidence, curiosity, and kindness. I love how they celebrate every child’s uniqueness and encourage them every step of the way. The themed days like Wheels Day are always a hit with the kids, and it’s clear the teachers put a lot of thought and care into creating fun, educational experiences. From hatching chickens to learning how make use of eggs , gardening, baking, cooking ,the hands-on learning is just beautiful to witness. My little ones are always coming home with new knowledge and stories to share. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re in such a safe, caring, and inspiring environment. I currently have both my youngest enrolled, and I honestly feel so lucky to have found Shining Stars when I did. Each morning drop-off comes with a little sadness, knowing we’re one day closer to saying goodbye when they move on to primary school. A special thank you to Mandy and Liz who always provide thoughtful updates and feedback about what the kids are learning and how we can keep it going at home. I’m truly grateful to all the amazing ladies for everything they do. I see you,every single one of you .Shining Stars is exactly that – a shining star in our community.”

“This was the best Day Care in Auckland. The team were loving and caring towards all the kids. I was very disappointed when they had to shut down due to water damage from the floods. They were a great asset to the area and to the kids. Hope all the team and families have found new daycares as good as this place was.”

“The teachers here have got the balance right. They nurture. They teach. They care. They listen. I know every time I drop off my son he will be safe. I also know that when I pick him up he will be happy and healthy - if not a little grubby from the FUN he has had learning! Thanks to the teachers for making this happen!”

“AMAZING xoxo Love this preschool. Teachers are fabulous, awesome and very interactive. They love their kids and genuinely make the effort to ensure they are learning, well looked after and are engaged in numerous . My daughter loves going to school and so will yours. Teachers speak well to the kids and everything centers around the well being & learning of your child xx”

“We are so grateful to the team at LIGHTHOUSE for the incredible care and support they have shown our family. Both of our children have thrived here, and the love, understanding, and encouragement from the team has meant the world to us , especially as a family who immigrated with no relatives nearby. Their kindness and connection have made us feel truly supported and seen. We will never forget how much they have done for our children and for us as parents. THANK YOU FOR BEING SUCH A SPECIAL PART OF OUR JOURNEY! – The Sibsons”
