Children's entertainment space in Auckland

“This indoor playground is a must to visit with your little ones. It's our first time coming in here and so far the cleanest we have been compared to other indoor playgrounds, cafe has a lot of tables too and you can just watch your children having fun while you enjoy your coffee. My 17 months old definitely had so much fun in here. Looking forward to comeback again.”

“I must command the excellent service I got today at the Warehouse Albany. A product I needed was not on shelf. The customer support went out of her way to find one in the shop but none was available. So she phoned another shop (Glenfield) and had one reserved for me to pick up on the same day. Excellent service. Thank you Helen Hadlee”

“Had a party here recently for my daughters birthday, the islander man was super friendly and helpful. The party rooms are spacious and clean and the playground is set up nicely. My daughter and her friends had a blast! Would recommend :)”

“Good park with a playground that caters for all ages. Has a wide open grass area that is perfect for playing around or exercising dogs. Massey's best kept secret!”

“We recently celebrated my son’s 1st birthday here at Manukau chipmunks. I had the pleasure of working with Val(staff member) throughout the night. The place was beautifully cleaned up before our night started and our kids food boxes were ready when we needed them. Everything I asked from Val and her other co worker they had for me straight away. I am very grateful for letting us use your facilities. Thank you for being so lovely and understanding. Blessings”

“We had our sons 5th birthday party here. The facilities are very clean, you can sit and watch the kids easily. Lots to do, games, face painting, obviously the playground itself. The food was great in the café, as well as the party food we ordered. Would absolutely come back again.”

“New playground, nicely done! Hopefully the locals around will take good care of this park for our tamariki. There are 2 benches with table where you can eat and stay while kids do their thing!”

“Good place for games, there's shops to buy food & drinks & a play ground for little ones”

“Good clean grounds, a few soccer goals”

“Awesome local park, generally safe. Lots of running space and a better than average playground with a flying fox. Was fairly clean the days I have visited. A great place for walking but young children will need supervision due to the stream that runs through and has no fence.”

“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”

“My son loves it! He is learning so much and always has a great day. The kaiako take great care of my boy, and I love the high quality learning stories, the provocations, the beautiful large outdoor environment, the quality resources and healthy home cooked food. My son is absolutely thriving in such a sensitive period of his development and I wouldn’t take him anywhere else. He tells me about the bikes he rides, the sandpit, he sings songs and enjoys the extras that nobody else offers such as Tiny Yoga and Tiny Pet Day. I also love the special events they put on for Mothers Day/ Fathers Day, Xmas, Matariki and more. I feel like they go above and beyond! Highly recommend Tiny Voices; nowhere else compares! We are very happy :-)”

“Hands down. The best daycare you could send your children to. I am so glad I pulled my daughter out of her previous one and brought her here. The drive is definitely worth it. ALL the teachers are amazing, friendly and welcoming. Hurricane has made our journey here so easy!! Everyone here feels like family & I am sad my girl has now left. Thank you for loving her like your own and making it her second home. She has learnt so much and has been well prepared for school. I appreciate you all!”

“Both my children have attended Acorn and thrived. A lovely, relatively small centre where children receive a lot of one on one attention and the staff cater towards individual children needs. Amazing staff who genuinely care for the children and build a strong connection and sense of community with them. My boys started school confidant, independent, curious and more than ready academically after attending Acorn. Highly recommend. ”

“My twin are going here and they have been loving the place and the teachers. The teachers are very caring and attentive and looks after my bubs very well. They are learning new things and my toddlers are always excited to go to the day care, that shows how happy are my children at Busy bee Mt Wellington. Thank you to all the teachers at Busy bee”

“Nice people nice place to play good equipment everything great”

“This Reserve one side got tall trees and the other side small open field. Good to place for your dogs to run around. One bench in the park. No public toilet here. Looks clean and tidy”

“Traditional Scout Hut, with a lot of history.”

“5 Stars! The food here was incredible! and the service was just as good! Would recommend to everyone who is in the area!!!”

“The Warehouse Glenfield offers a fantastic shopping experience with a wide range of affordable products. It's often quieter than other locations, allowing for a more relaxed and enjoyable visit. The store is well-organized, and the staff is friendly and helpful, making it a top choice for convenient and stress-free shopping.”

“Besides the outdated interior the customer service here is excellent. The team at the desk from 3pm onwards was super nice on the 2nd of August. Thanks for making the day enjoyable”

“Excellent customer service and great people. We went there in a rainy day. My 8 month girl had a natural call. The shop manager lent their staff room for us to do a nappy change! Amazing people!”

“Riverhead Montissori is and has been an amazing daycare for my three children. Reminiscent of a kindy, with a well loved environment and wholesome teaches, while still maintaining the child/teacher ratio and morning routine of a traditional Montissori daycare. The centre is well run and flexible, Rachel in admissions is seemingly always available and accomodating. Due to its community values and small country setting I feel that my children have very personalised care. For our family in particular we appreciate that there is always a very calm and happy atmosphere at drop off, I feel that this encourages my children to start a piece of work and allow me to leave without them getting overwhelmed or sad. My children also enjoy the mix of ages within the classrooms, being able to learn from those older than them and care/teach those who are younger. We cannot recommend Riverhead Montissori enough.”

“My son loves it there, been going for 1 year now. All the teachers are really caring and passionate about what they do. Great activities and play areas”

“Both of our boys attended Stepping Stones and they were always keen to go. I was always confident that they were safe and happy there. What I found most impressive about the teaching team is that they are continuously improving. They frequently seek feedback and try new ways of approaching communication with parents, and engaging the children. Their backyard area is a great example of frequent innovation to cater to the children's different interests and their short attention spans! I really enjoyed an evening event that a few of the teachers held for parents of the older children. The teachers introduced themselves and talked to us about their approach to planning and executing lessons with the children. And they let us try out some of the exercises - it was good fun and a great way to understand how the learning objectives connect with play. There are also great additional activities available to the children such as Playball, Yoga and Dance - which both of my children have really enjoyed. I thoroughly recommend Stepping Stones.”

“A cool little childcare centre. Because it’s smaller it feels more like family. The teachers are great and work really well as a team to give great care and communication about what’s happening. We really like the fact that the outdoor spaces are big and have real grass growing rather than artificial.”

“Great facility for the scouting movement. The grandkids loved camping there with pt chev air scouts”

“Great people are members there and it has awesome indoor and outdoor facilities for kids.”

“This is a great playground. Our Smallie loves everything about it, especially the big slide & all 3 swing choices. Forgot to take photo today!”
