“The Teachers are all very caring and focus on each childs individual development and work with parents to achieve their aspirations for their children. It is a home away from home for my daughter and I can confidently drop my daughter off in the morning and know that she is well looked after. The centre and teachers are very good with communicating with the parents which is very important.”

“We’ve had our 3 children in the care of Fantails Silverdale since 2018, and our experience has been nothing short of wonderful. The teachers are always so warm, caring, and dedicated to the children, which makes a huge difference in their development. It’s clear they’re genuinely passionate about creating a nurturing environment. The outdoor space is fantastic! There’s plenty of room for the kids to play and explore, and it’s a great feature of the centre. I also love that they have separate rooms for different age groups, so each child gets the attention and activities suited to their stage of development. Fantails organizes regular events that keep things fresh and exciting for the kids, from themed days to celebrations, and they always look forward to these. The extra activities they offer, like playball, swimming, and school visits, are a nice touch and give the children a variety of experiences beyond the typical classroom setting. What stands out most, however, is how the management truly listens to feedback. They are always open to suggestions and seem genuinely invested in improving the centre. It’s clear that they care about the families they serve. We couldn’t be happier with the care our kids are receiving at Fantails, and we highly recommend it to any family looking for a supportive, engaging, and professional early learning centre.”

“I couldn't be happier with this childcare. My eldest son started when he was 6months , and now he is 4.5yrs. These last 4 years I have had the joy and privilege to see what an amazing person he's becoming and I do give a lot of credit to the teachers and caregivers here. So it was a super easy decision to enrol my second son here as well. He too started at 6 months. The teachers here are so wonderful, caring and the boys feel so safe and loved here. I also love the fact that they have an inhouse chef that prepares these lovely meals for the kids. I would highly recommend Your Place childcare.”

“I cannot recommend Plum Tree preschool highly enough! We’ve done a lot of research and trialing at the nearby daycares and Plum Tree was by far the best one for us. The most amazing, warm and caring teachers! Lots of nature based play and engaging activities.”

“The team at Coast Montessori are absolutely wonderful!! Their love, care and passion is truly remarkable. With separate zones focusing on different skills, I know my child is being developed in all the different learning aspects. My daughter loves it so much that it is a mission getting her to leave every day. Highly recommended!”

“My daughter has been attending Fantails for a year and a half now, she joined in the infants room before progressing onto the toddlers room, and we have been so so happy with our experience here. Every single teacher that has cared for my daughter has been warm, loving and genuinely kind towards her - I’m so appreciative. I know the culture they foster within is strongly geared towards providing gentle guidance, empathy and being emotional intelligent in how they care and interact with our children. The actual service Fantails provides is also to a high standard - there is a routine, there are protocols, and they following the New Zealand early learning framework very closely and keep us in the loop about how our children are progressing in relation. From the warmth I receive at reception to the support I receive from her teachers daily - I’m beyond grateful. Highly recommend.”

“I will strongly recommend Kingsway Preschool Silverdale. My son spent an amazing year here. They have excellent management and system and allow parents to know everything from school in time. All teachers are patient, creative and always have smiles on their faces. Thanks for everything. :)”
