Institute in Auckland

“From the first moment we walked into Albany Community Preschools' gates, we have felt welcomed and 'taken care of'. The teachers are all so lovely and warm. They have taken the time to get to know our son and he is excited to go to Preschool each day. He has even asked to go to school on the weekend and when I pick him up he wants to stay a little longer. Cannot recommend this preschool more!”

“This is such a wonderful Day Care. My son went here for 2 years and had a great time. The cost is very reasonable, and they get fed. They have lovely celebrations. Great teachers and good communication. Thank you to Uptown Kids.”

“We couldn't be happier! Our 3-year-old daughter absolutely loves going every day — she comes home smiling, singing songs she’s learned, and telling us about all her little adventures. The teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment where every child feels safe and valued. We've seen so much growth in her confidence, communication, and creativity since she started. The activities are thoughtfully planned, balancing play, learning, and social development beautifully. It's such a wonderful feeling as a parent to know that your child is genuinely happy, loved, and thriving. We are so grateful to the amazing team and highly recommend them to any family looking for a place where their little one will be truly cared for.”

“We love this daycare! It provides a nice environment with excellent, patient teachers. My son's language skills have improved significantly, and he learns a lot every day. The teachers regularly give feedback on the children's progress, which we really appreciate.”

“What a lovely and NZ unique place for the little ones! My boy is 9 month old. He loves here so much and has a lot of fun together with other children. He likes copying bigger kids playing and enjoys different adventures every time. I believe he likes sand and water very much. I really like here too because parents share ideas with each other, help looking after each other's kids. Friendly, caring and sharing. What a team! Thank you for all of the organizers' hard working... Feel blessed...”

“My son is currently enrolled at Tiny Stars and I cant tell how you much my son has learnt especially in the past year at Tiny Stars. Though he's playful at home, his attitude changes as soon as the gate opens and it's like he's a different person. He honestly loves Tiny Stars he sometimes doesn't want to leave. The staff there too are also friendly, they keep you in the loop of your child's learning and they really value the child's learning.”

“Casa Montessori is one of the best Montessori pre school that i have seen in New Zealand. Teachers are excellent l, caring loving and very organised, environment is really tidy and clean and also methodical. My son loved going to Casa everyday and he was well prepared for the school by the teachers. Centre manager Sonali was amazing and very kind a caring soul. The learning stories were amazing as they were really comprehensive and detailed with plenty of pictures and i loved reading them when there were uploaded. They had a practical skills area, science, maths language and literacy, so STEAM activities, music, painting, geography & physical activities too. They even did baking , making dumplings with kids.. i have never found a place like Casa Montessori even in the south island of New Zealand to enrol my daughter after my son . I think Casa Montessori has set the bar very high for all the Montessori preschools around New Zealand. Well done! Keep up the good work Casa Montessori! Love this place so much Highly recommend them to everyone all in all great place❤️”

“My daughter has been attending this daycare for a little over two months. Despite her shyness, with the help of the teachers, she has already made friends, gained confidence, and eagerly participates in play with the other children and teachers. The teachers are extremely passionate about their work, keeping the children engaged with a wide variety of interesting activities so that they never get bored.”

“My daughter and I have recently joined the Freeman’s Bay Playcentre community and we absolutely love it!! All the members are very warm and friendly and we felt immediately welcomed. I love how Playcentre is parent-run and in such a short time my daughter’s confidence has grown as she is playing and interacting with the other children at the centre.”

“Waitakere Kindy has been the best kindy for both my girls. The teachers are the best and the environment including the large outdoor play area are awesome. The transition from kindy to school went smoothly for my now school aged daughter but I know will be the same with my 4 year old. I’d recommend Waitakere kindy to anyone!”

“I can't sing the praises of Belmont Bayswater Kindy enough. The teachers understand and have a genuine interest in their student's wellbeing and development. The centre itself is completely set up for active, curious kids with different activities and equipment to engage your child. If Kindy hours can work for you, I'd completely recommend BBK.”

“My daughter has been looking after very well here... very friendly and caring teachers..homely environment which assured and giving me satisfaction of leaving my child in safe hands...Supportive management in all the aspects...”

“Awesome musical school. My 7 year old has been learning the guitar and done a few singing lessons. The teachers are great with kids. Highly recommend Rudd School Of Rock.”

“I recently visited GURJAP Driving school the service was very good and he is very knowledgeable and friendly person”

“Stella kids has been great for our two kids. Healthy meals, a homely environment and the best back yard! Lots of fun nature play we will miss you all when we go to school!”

“Awesome service as always today - quick wheel changeover and we were on the road again before lunch (and the truck looks great now!)! Thanks Shane and the Tyrepower team!”

“Best school in auckland . Amazing staff”

“We had to urgently put our daughter into daycare due to unforeseen circumstances. The Centre manager was super helpful and accommodating to us and helped to relieve a lot of our stress at the time. My daughter had a great time and made many friends. She loved all of the teachers and would have stories to tell us at the end of each day of fun things they did. We look forward to send our youngest when he’s a bit older to this great facility.”

“Not only kids like it. Excellent staff”

“Baby started at 10 moths and we havent looked back. He loves it and we feel super comfortable with him there. Teachers are very loving”

“Very nice studio, my son Max love it.”

“My two children LOVE it here! They learn so much and have gained so many new friends that they rave on about in high regard. The teachers are so beautiful in the way they teach and nurture our children. Since attending this childcare centre my babies have excelled so much in general, from the way they communicate to singing songs and even reading/familiarising themselves with particular words and spelling. It's been amazing to watch the staff here implement everything that's done at home and even taught me ideas, as a solo Mum, on what else I can do, just by seeing how much my babies enjoy the work and play they do here at Early Discoveries. My neice and nephews have attended in previous years and have only amazing and treasured memories of the place. From previous staff to new staff employed, they all have the same nature about them and genuinely work together to aim for the best start our babies can have before heading off to big school. I would reccomend this centre 100% to any parent wanting the best, love felt environment for their children, where they have firm attentive teachers/carers who balance your child's experience with freedom to explore, to learn and have fun!”

“Very inviting and welcoming centre where all parents and children are cared for and valued. Lovely environment and staff are amazing with the little ones.”

“Since the current owner Roly took over, this place is way better. I feel my child is looked after well, more closer care. She has lots of knowledge, explains well with questions. Therefore this helps me well to plan of child development. I’d recommend here especially if you have first child.”
