Kindergarten in Auckland

“A well run well resourced small centre. The teachers are caring and attentive, the whole family feels welcome when we do drop offs and pick ups. A lot of opportunities for messy and creative play. Regular updates and photos. Children spend a lot of time outdoors. Unfortunately, winter bugs are very common among under twos but that’s the case in all centres, especially post-covid.”

“Awesome place for early childhood education. Friendly people and lots of fun.”

“Great centre with experienced teachers. Children are provided an inclusive environment for their holistic development. Highly recommend.”

“My daughter is very happy here.”

“My daughter attended Our Kids Glendene from 10 months old until starting school. The level of care she received was consistently excellent. The team clearly care deeply for the children at this centre, and have been easy to communicate with at all times. My daughter has been well supported in her emotional and social development and the team have established a strong foundation for her learning journey. She has happily started school as a confident and well-rounded girl, which is in large part thanks to the team at Our Kids Glendene.”

“I visited many centers with my two children before settled at magicland Childcare. The single biggest thing that made me click was their open door policy, unlike many other centers, I was able to spend time with my kids till they were able to wave bye bye to me confidently, without tears, my younger one was turning two and my older one was turning four when they first started. Technically they should have gone to separate rooms, but owner made exception to help the process. So they were able to spend lots of time playing together and it built confidence for them both. Now they still play together and also have their own friends. I changed their sessions a few times and the owner and teachers are experienced and approachable and willing to adapt to my needs. I have come across some highly qualified professionals in the ECE field but when you want someone who is ready to listen and help, there aren't many out there, and here is one of the few.”

“I have absolutely loved Ako Adventures. They watched 2 of my children and they grew and thrived in their environment. It was sad that we had to leave due to relocating, but if we were in the area we would definitely come back! All staff were amazing towards me and my family. We thank you so much!!”

“Our Grandson has so much fun and everyone is very friendly”

“This one gave me a very clean and warm impression. The teachers who take care of the children are very responsible! There are a lot of toys for the children. It is very clean and spacious. It is not like some old kindergartens that get dirty after a long time. In short, the children are happy and I feel relieved. I recommend it~~”

“Absolutely love happy hearts such a nice setup daycare and the staff are absolutely amazing with my one year old! Highly recommend!”

“I don’t think I can put in words what an amazing role Vintage kids has played in our family. Both our kids attended, we fell in love with the place on our first visit. I imagine a visit is all that’s needed for anyone looking for a nurturing environment for their children. The teachers went above ant beyond from day one up til the final day before our kids left for school.”

“Great place for childcare services”

“Pure Magic! This is honestly the best daycare centre ever. I feel like a lot of parents don't know about it. It is absolutely incredible. All the the teachers have so much magic with all the children. We are so grateful to be part of Starfish family. All the teachers are so friendly and are so good with the kids that you really feel at ease when you're trusting them with your child. It is their home away from home after all. Our boy found so many lovely friends here, we are forever grateful that we have discovered this centre. There are so many activities for the kids and they learn so much here. The teachers put so much effort into their every day. Thank you all so much! We couldn't be happier. You can really tell that everyone that works here are truly passionate about children and really want to see them learn and explore. One owner based and you can just tell how much effort, passion and magic they have here at Starfish. It is definitely a hidden gem here on the Coast. We are so fortunate to be able to have a place here for our boy. Thank you so much to all the Starfish team, you are absolutely incredible! You make our days every single day! You are truly the best! Nataliya and Tom”

“kinz is so good my two children rayyan ali and yash reddy have been going there for 7 years now and they find it amazing !”

“My son attended Saplings at around 1 year old. He has lots of fun and enjoys every moment there. He especially enjoyed the creative arts and crafts projects, which fostered a love for learning and creativity. He also loves playing at the sandpits which is very spacious and full of resources. The warmth, professionalism, and dedication of the staff have made a lasting positive impact on my son’s development and creativity. Thanks everyone at Saplings to help transforming my son from a shy baby boy to a confident toddler. Saplings is my son’s second home and we are glad that we picked the best daycare for him. Worths every penny! Highly recommended!”

“My daughter is having a wonderful experience at Happy Kids, thanks to the exceptional care provided by teachers Rachel, Josephine, Mafi, Corina, and Kelly. And Angela is a good administrator. Each teacher is incredibly attentive and dedicated, and their commitment to fostering a love of learning and providing individualized attention is evident in how much my daughter enjoys her time there and the progress she’s making.”
