“Highly Recommend!!! The team at Summerland Kindergarten are absolutely amazing! My daughter is always ecstatic to go and is upset when it's her day off. They have provided such a warm and caring environment where we feel like family. They stimulate her mind and keep her on her toes. She loves all the different activities that she participates in and she does not want it to end. Thank you for the amazing experience. Keep it up!”

“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.”

“We have had two of our children attend Kadimah preschool, they have had the most incredible care and experience there. And set them up so well for their next stages in education. The teachers, the approach, the facilities and the board are all top notch! Nothing compares as we have tried it all, public Kindy’s, other secular preschools and Kadimah is by far the Best! We couldn’t recommend it more highly!”

“A centre that feels like home when you walk through the door; we are always warmly greeted by Denise, Janna or Jane at the front desk. Kids are then welcomed into their room by the amazing, nurturing kaiako. The staff are passionate, highly skilled at their jobs and offer so much support to families; whether its helping with settling your child in the morning, toilet training or remembering what's important in each child's life at home. Amy makes the most delicious meals which our kids both loved and despite using Amy's exact recipes to recreate these meals at home, our daughter tells us "you need to ask Amy how to make it as good as hers!" We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found Kindercare as we don't have whanau in Auckland, but having such a special place for our kids is the next best thing. Both our kids had five years being lovingly cared for by the unique Kindercare Silverdale team - after ten years of being part of the Kindercare whanau, it is really hard to imagine saying goodbye to the centre later this year when our baby turns five. Highly recommend!”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at One Tree Hill Kindy. The staff are absolutely fantastic — warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about early childhood education. The facilities are clean, safe, and thoughtfully designed to inspire creativity and learning. Both our children have loved going every day and come home full of stories and smiles. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a nurturing and supportive environment”

“The best teaching team! All the kaiako here at Country Kids are warm, welcoming, supportive and amazing. Initially, I wanted to find a centre close home but decided that a 30 minute commute was well worth it. Our whānau have been here since June, and I’m so happy with how my daughter is going. My son, when old enough, will definitely be going here too. He loves Country Kids and so do we!”

“We moved to Auckland from the US and were nervous about our daughter starting a new school in a new country. BBEC has been offered such a kind, warm and fun environment that has helped her transition to be very seamless. Our daughter looks forward to seeing her teachers and her friends each day. It gives us a lot of peace of mind to know that she’s in good hands and in a fun learning environment each day.”

“Very good service, They had to sort out someone else's attempt to Lift my ute . It Drove like shit ! They upgraded replaced all the parts and got it looking 100 Times better and it also drives a 100 times better. Also Serviced it as well. Thanks”

“MyFlight was a great choice of flight school to do my instrument rating. From the well maintained aircraft through to the very knowledgeable (and patient!) instructors, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a professional organisation where you never feel as though you’re just another number.”

“My daughter joined BestStart Dannemora when she was 1 and went right through to the age of 5 when she transitioned into Primary. Everyone here is amazing. From the front desk, to back office, to every teacher in each room. They're welcoming, friendly, caring and work with you to bring out the best in your child. I highly recommend Beststart Dannemora. They're definitely one of, if not the best in the area.”

“We absolutely love this daycare! From the very first day, the staff have been so welcoming, caring, and professional. My daughter settled in so quickly thanks to the kind and nurturing environment. The teachers truly go above and beyond, not just watching the children, but engaging with them, teaching them, and helping them grow every single day.She always comes home wanting to show us something new she has learned. We’ve also noticed how much her confidence, social skills, and independence have grown since starting here.The communication from the centre is fantastic, we always feel included and updated on how her day has gone. The facilities are clean, safe, and thoughtfully set up for learning and play. You can really tell the team genuinely cares about the kids. We’re so grateful to have found a place we can trust and feel so confident sending our daughter to every day. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and enriching space for their child.”

“Absolutely brilliant childcare centre. Our daughter attended for just over 4 years before starting school. From day one we just knew it was the perfect place for our daughter to thrive. We were made to feel welcome from the off, the staff are engaged, caring and fantastic at what they do. The centre is extremely well run by Shahla, Amanda and the team. We always had peace of mind that our daughter was safe, loved and learning lots and we cannot thank the team enough.”

“Papatoetoe KIDS Early Learning Centre provides exceptional care and love for my child which gives me peace of mind while I'm at work. The staff are warm, welcoming, and truly invested in each child's growth and development. My child has thrived in this nurturing environment and has developed wonderful social skills, made great friends, and learned so much. I couldn't be more grateful to have found PapatoetoeKIDSEarly LearningCenter! I highly recommend this daycare to any parent seeking a trustworthy, loving, and stimulating environment for their child.”

“Best Start Tironui Road are an amazing centre with awesome teachers. My son loves attending each day and I know I am leaving him in safe hands with teachers who genuinely care about him and actively explore and nurture his interests. The whole team have been incredibly supportive to us as a whanau, throughout the time our son has attended and I could recommend them highly enough!”

“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.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Little Dinosaurs. The owner and teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and genuinely invested in the children’s wellbeing and development. Our 3-year-old daughter absolutely loves going there, so we have just added an extra day for her to attend. Communication with parents is excellent too, and activities are thoughtful and engaging. Highly recommend to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and fun place for their little one.”

“We absolutely love Little Pohutukawa! The teachers are incredible – always warm, friendly, and genuinely invested in the kids’ wellbeing. Both of our children attend and absolutely love going to “school” each day. It’s such a comfort knowing they’re in a caring, nurturing, and fun environment. We’ve seen them thrive and grow so much thanks to the amazing team. We would highly recommend Little Pohutukawa to any parents considering childcare.”

“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.”

“Our family loves Red Kite Preschool, we make the daily effort to travel 30minutes in traffic each day because the staff are so welcoming, professional and knowledgeable. We love that they have male teachers as role models, and that some of the teachers speak Mandarin & Cantonese to our children who are of Chinese decent. We did not hesitate to send our 2nd child into the baby room, as we know that the she is cared for with lots of love and adoration ”

“As one of the families at Koru Montessori, we wholeheartedly recommend this centre to anyone looking to nurture their child’s independence and unlock their full potential. We truly appreciate the thoughtful and respectful way the educators interact with the children. Over the years, the support and guidance we’ve received from the dedicated team at Koru has made a meaningful difference in our child’s development. There’s no doubt in our minds—we will continue to recommend Koru Montessori to future families and generations.”

“Highly recommended! All of my children attended Treetops from the age of 1 until they started primary school, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were incredibly lucky to have the wonderful team at the Botany Junction centre. I truly appreciate everything the team has done for our family!”

“When we first enrolled, my son Akein looking new challenges. However, since joining SIP Abacus at the Flat Bush centre, I have seen a remarkable transformation in him. Sandun Ranasinghe here, and Akein has been part of SIP Abacus for 6 to 12 months now. We decided to enroll Akein in SIP Abacus after seeing an online advertisement, and it has been one of the best decisions we've made for his education. Even though he is doing online classes, the teaching and learning environment provided by SIP Abacus have been exceptional. The improvement in Akein's math skills and grades has been tremendous. Not only has he excelled in math, but we have also seen a positive impact on his performance in other school subjects. His focus and concentration have improved significantly, and he is now much more confident in his abilities. Akein is now a happier, more attentive child who is eager to listen and follow instructions. I am incredibly proud of his growth and progress, and I am grateful to SIP Abacus for their dedication to helping children develop essential skills. Thank you, SIP Abacus New Zealand, for the positive impact you have had on Akein's development journey.”

“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 ❤️”

“Epsom Community Crèche is a hidden gem! The beautiful garden is a haven for kids to explore and play, and the natural toys are perfect for sparking their imagination and creativity. The team is warm, caring, and dedicated to providing a nurturing environment. Highly recommend!”

“Dear Sunshine Christian Preschool Team, We just want to express again our sincerest gratitude to everyone who has been part of Matthieu’s journey at Sunshine, especially Teachers Kathrina, Suzie, Selena, Tessa, Eseta, Joy, and Grace. Thank you for helping him grow into such a confident, kind, and happy young boy. To everyone, we truly appreciate the love, patience, and dedication you’ve shown every day, especially in supporting his individual goals and nurturing him with strong Christian values. A very special thank you to Teacher Kathrina for facilitating the Filipino classes. It truly meant so much to our family. These classes helped Matthieu embrace his Filipino culture and gave him a deeper sense of belonging at school, especially since we speak Filipino at home. Seeing that part of his identity reflected and supported in the classroom made a big difference in his confidence and how he connected with others. We’ll always remember how excited he was to share stories about his day. About his friends, the activities he enjoyed, and of course, his teachers. It was clear how much he loved being at Sunshine and how deeply he felt connected to all of you. Please know that what you do each day goes far beyond just a job. The children truly look up to you and see you as part of their extended family. You are helping shape their early years in such a meaningful way, and we hope you feel proud of the incredible impact you're making. We will always be grateful to Sunshine Christian Preschool and to everyone who has played a role in Matthieu’s early learning journey. Thank you so much for everything. Warm regards, Eric and Leah”
