“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!”
“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.”

“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.”
“A preschool cannot be missed! My daughter started at Smart Start since she was three. We absolutely loved here. A huge thank you to the lovely teachers Sarah, Sophie, Anne and Jenny, for all the effort over the past two years. The amount of attention, care and love they’ve given Fay is massive and unforgettable❤️ One of the good things I love about Montessori is everyday children get the chance to sit down properly and focus on their little task, which is great for developing their attention sense. Having time to free play, to focus and to do circle time, this gives them a great habit of getting ready for school. We love this center and will highly recommend Smart Start to friends around us. Book a visit with lovely principal Rebecca, you will be impressed too!”
“My son has been at Just Kidz Henderson for over two years, and we’ve had an excellent experience. The teachers are fantastic – caring, patient, and always supportive of the kids’ development. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, creating a safe and fun space for the children. The other kids are friendly, and my son has made great friendships. It’s been a wonderful place for him to learn and grow, and we’re really grateful for the positive environment and all the care the team provides!”
“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 :)”
“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 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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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 :)”
“Great environment, teachers and leadership. They are always welcoming, accommodating and very professional. Our little one took time to adjust and found her ground after a while. She has built a great relationship with teachers and friends over time.”
“I am delighted with the care and attention my child has received during their first month at BestStart Albany. The staff have created a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where my child feels welcomed and supported. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for the children truly stand out. I have complete confidence in recommending BestStart Albany to anyone seeking quality childcare. Keep up the good work team.”

“As a professional dancer from the U.S. I flew to Auckland to come here to train. This place is made for people who are professional or people who want to dance recreationally. This is the place to be for dance. This place will not only contribute to you as an artist but classes are taught by people that are very knowledgeable about what they are teaching. Also this studio constantly has professional opportunities for staff and students. This place is next level.”
“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!”
“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 ❤️”
“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.”
“The best Silent Disco Hens Party ever! The concept of the Silent Disco Citywalk is ingenius and I can't recommend it enough for people who want to throw a party with a difference! I've never imagined having such a unique, thrilling hens party in my life, we had so much enjoyment walking and dancing around a small beachside town with a personalised audio programme! I had a brilliant time, so did my friends, the buzz created by the event and Yana was amazing! If you are in any doubt at all, then you need not worry. I would wholeheartedly recommend the company and the concept, and you can absolutely trust Yana to deliver splendid quality service and magic into your party, and your life. All my friends said it was one of the most fun things they had ever done. Thank you!”
“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.”
“From the first time meeting his teacher, Jecel, at the transition visits, I felt instantly relieved and knew that my 6 month old baby would be in good hands. All of the teachers in the Fern Room have helped my child to thrive, feel comfortable and he's happy going to daycare. Jecel is fantastic and her end of day handovers are fantastic. She has helped us with finding solutions to issues that has arisen. Very happy with the service Pascal's provide.”
“The most caring, nurturing group of teachers, they really are amazing! Will be forever grateful for the love my daughter receives, she loves being an Active Explorer!! A fantastic thought out centre with ample outdoor space and heaps of daily creativity through sensory/messy play, which i love getting updates on throughout my working day! Made my transition back to work as easy as it could be. Fab management as well as healthy food and snacks.”
“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!”
“Titoki Montessori Preschool has provided a fantastic foundation for both our children. Our older son attended from age 3 to 6, and our daughter is currently a student, having started at age 3 as well. We were unsure at first about the 3-year program but found that the final year at Titoki is especially critical, as the 5-year-olds become leaders for the younger children, which builds their confidence and fosters a sense of responsibility. We felt our son had the chance to learn and develop more during his last year at Titoki than he would have if he had gone to primary school at 5. Our son transitioned seamlessly into primary school at age 6 and was ahead of the primary school curriculum. Both our kids have received an incredible foundation at Titoki, with amazing teachers and exceptional learning materials, Titoki has everything in place for children to develop, while providing a great sense of community. Both of our kids have been very happy there and have enjoyed the learning process immensely. Titoki is an excellent example of the results achievable with the Montessori method.”
“My son has been going to Kindy Cottage from age 1 and he is now getting ready to leave and go to school. We have had a fantastic experience with Kindy Cottage throughout his whole journey. The owners and the teachers all care passionately about the children and their wellbeing. The spaces that are available for the children are safe, clean, relaxed and well thought out. I have really appreciated the time the teachers have spent to understand what inspires my son and provide learning tools that he loves. I believe he has been given everything he needs to be ready for school. He is a confident happy boy. Thank you Kindy Cottage.”
“Our daughter has had such a wonderful start at Sunbeams. The staff are all so friendly and caring and the space feels like home, which is exactly what we wanted from a kindy. Each day new, fun activities have been set out around the kindy for the children to explore, learn and play with. It's an inspiring, nurturing place that we are so happy to be a part of.”
