Kindergarten in Auckland

“My son is going on 18 months and had been attending since about 11 months old. After visiting a few centre's in the area we choose this one for several reasons. We found the babies room and the centre in general very homely. He has a great bond with of his teachers there and seems to enjoy his days (twice a week). They have an amazing amount of resources for the children. We have moved out of the area so at some stage will need to switch centre's unfortunately so it will be greatly missed. I thank all the teaches for the amazing job you do for the kids. Also the centre manager is lovely very accommodating and helpful. Many blessings to you all”

“My visit to Katokakala was very inspiring, the atmosphere, the team and especially their philosophy spoke volumes and captured my heart! As soon as you walk in you feel calm, you feel at home, you feel so loved and you're excited to explore and learn so you can only imagine how a child would feel coming here. There is not a bare space in sight, every corner and every area has opportunities to explore and learn. A humble center that absolutely honors and lives up to their philosophy. Well done team ❤️”

“I use to go to this kindergarten when i was younger, I loved it honestly. I lived just down the road so i'd just walk there. I use to eat crayons, eat all the other kids lunches, and have the meanest naps. Now Im 21, studying my bachelors trying to survive. Damn I miss being a kid. Anyways mean place, enrol your kids here its allgood chur”

“malo very good people. good kindy”

“Good preschool to learn Tongan language”

“Great place for childcare services”

“Small Miracles in an incredible Early Learning Centre. With a warm, nurturing feel, we couldn't have been happier with the experience our children had in theri pre-school years. Ingrid leads an incredible team of loving, clever and inventive ECE teachers who remain favourite teachers even though our kids have now moved on. Thank you so much for the magical years we had with you.”

“We love Kohi Montessori! The teachers go above and beyond for the children and the ratios are nice and low. My daughter loves the big outdoor area where I see all the kids running round, playing tag, soccer, sprinklers in summer, playing on moon-hoppers, and more. They also prepare the children for school with skills like writing their names, teaching independence and sending home little readers. I highly recommend to all.”

“From the moment we walked in the door, we knew this was the best place for our two children. We were drawn to the warm, welcoming and stimulating environment. The amazing, dedicated teachers, along with the interesting materials, naturally inspire learning and spark the imagination. Children are free to choose their own work and learn and develop at their own pace. The teachers genuinely respect the children, who in turn respect the teachers and the environment. It creates a strong sense of belonging and community that made our children feel like this was their second home. They have been raised the way we intended and left preschool as independent, self motivated, confident and polite young people, ready for the next chapter of life. The skills and experiences they gained at Glendowie Montessori have undoubtedly set the best possible foundations for their future.”

“Such a supportive community where I have made lifelong friends and learning alongside my tamariki who absolutely love Playcentre.”

“Love St Andrew's and our wonderful Aunties! Great school and learning environment for our little ones and more importantly, biblically based. Highly recommend!!”

“I love Community Kindy. At first i was really worried because this was the first time I have put my child into a day care facility, but looking back now I don’t have any regrets. My son loves going kindy. The teachers are so lovely & supportive. We teach our son as much things as we can when we are at home but since starting kindy this year (2018) he has picked up so much & learnt so many new things. I love how the teachers are always updating Story Park so when me & my husband are at work we know how our son’s day went. Overall, I am so pleased I chose to put my son in Community Kindy, cause I know my son is well looked after.”

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

“My son has been at Connect Preschool for just over a year and he absolutely loves it.. He's excited everyday to be there. The teachers are all lovely, nurturing and are excellent with the kids.. We just love it!!”

“This preschool became my son's 2nd family/home with Loving mothers (Yufaan, Diana, Sonia, Trinee) + loving grand mother Wafah. So much caring & the amaizing pre-school experience. Even we fell really sad to leave them on our son's last day at the preschool. The staff is very knowledgeable on child psychology & their behaviors. Lots of love for 1+1..”

“We are so grateful we came across WonderKids Childcare and Preschool My daughter has global developmental delay and speech delay and ALL staff are so so educated, understanding and accommodating. My girl has grown and learnt so much whilst in the care of WonderKids and is reaching milestones I once felt we might never get to. The way that staff connect with and support our family as a whole means the world to us and for the first time in years I can leave my girl in the morning with guilt-free knowing that she is in the best hands, having fun and learning so many important skills. They helped my girl achieve her goal of successful toilet training. That’s the best achievement ever.”

“We have been coming to this playcentre for 4 years and love it! A great social network for the whole family aswell as quality early childhood education for your kids that you get to be part of.”

“Kindercare Botany have been absolutely amazing for us as a family. Our daughter started when she was 1 years old and she is nearly 2 now. The level of care, love and attention to the children is fantastic! My daughter eats so well at Kindercare. She just loves the teachers and other children. It feels like family to us and I would highly recommend it to other families”

“We love this Playcentre! There's something for every child, from the playground, to the arts and crafts, books, cooking, water play, messy play. My child has a great time learning with other kids, and I get to interact with other adults. Highly recommend.”

“We have been part of Glenbrea Kids for almost three years, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place! From the very beginning, the staff has been warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive to the needs of both children and parents. My child absolutely loves going there every day, and it’s clear that the environment is nurturing, fun, and engaging. The teachers genuinely care about each child, and their dedication shines through in everything they do. I highly recommend Glenbrea Kids to any parent looking for a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for their little one. It has truly been a second home for our family, and we are so grateful for the amazing care they provide!”

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

“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!”

“This really is a very special preschool. I’m so glad to have found it. Such a calm, caring place for our children to be. The teachers are lovely, the grounds and play area are beautiful, and it’s a very welcoming environment.”

“My son has the best time at Papakura Playcentre - definitely the highlight of his week! Warm and friendly with something new to experience every session. Highly recommend checking it out :)”

“My son has been here since he was 2, he is 4 this year and absolutely loves it. Staff are amazing and my son has bonded with everyone and loves coming to school everyday. He learns so much and has made a lot of friends”
