“We have loved our time in at Chlidsplay, we’re in the Fantail Room and could not be more complimentary of Mandy and Irene. They create such a welcoming and loving environment and our daughter absolutely adores them. Thanks both and all the rest of the childsplay team!”

“1 month in and all the teachers try very hard. They are very patient and kind. I trust the teachers so much that it makes me feel good leaving my world in their hands. I have recommended to family members already. This is my first experience with daycares and honestly, they have set the bar so high! Thankful for everyone ❤”

“Our son has been attending ACG Remuera since turning 12 months old in May 2024, and he genuinely loves the place. He is always smiling and happy when we drop him off in the mornings. All the teachers are wonderful and caring.”

“The team and facilities at ABC Epsom are fantastic. Particularly the teachers in the under two's room are so caring and wonderful with the littlies. The atmosphere at the centre is great. Lovely big outdoor space for a relatively central centre. Highly recommend.”

“Apple Tree Preschool is a fantastic place with caring and friendly teachers who greet you warmly when you arrive and leave everyday. They provide daily verbal updates about your child at the end of the day and monthly stories that highlight their progress. The staff take sickness seriously, keeping families informed about any illnesses at the preschool and encouraging caution to keep everyone safe. They also offer hot, healthy lunches along with morning and afternoon teas every day. Overall, it’s a welcoming, safe, and nurturing environment where both children and parents feel supported.”

“My son is in tui room and he had a fantastic experience with Best Start Ascot. The teachers are warm, professional, and caring. They are also flexible in terms of schedule changes and will acknowledge your concerns. The range of activities keeps the children engaged and supports both their creativity and learning. Most importantly, I feel confident knowing that my child is in a safe, nurturing environment. I highly recommend this center especially for those who are unsure whether to start their child on daycare or not.”

“A place which was second home for my daughter. She started in 2020 and a graduated in 2025... A long journey with the best teachers who not only understands the child but supports Parents as well. From crawling to standing and then running with lots of fun, learning, exploring and developing with trustworthy teachers, this is how our daughter's journey was. Special thanks to all the teachers Henny, Aman, Maddi, Asha, Alpana, Raheena, Ronita, Kajal, Mau, Anita and last but not least Gazelle for your continuous support. Highly recommended childcare to everyone... Thanks Swapnil and Nitika”

“Best centre in the heart of Papakura and I highly recommend this kindy. First day visit to the centre and I already 100% thankful that I step foot in this centre. All staff are friendly and family orientated. They took extra mile and went beyond measure to meet the needs of the children even though all children has different needs. I love this centre is very clean and tidy and they accommodate the children to the best of their ability and making sure that all children are safe and happy. My daughter has no issue going to this centre. Thank you millions Beststart Marne Road, Papakura.”

“Our son has attended Pascals for a short 7 months since he was 1.5 years old, and we have seen him flourish at this lovely establishment. The teachers and staff are incredibly caring and have always taken the extra effort to make sure your child is well and happy. Our son has made so many friends, gained lots of confidence and new skills, and his vocabulary exploded once he settled in the Tui room. It's been amazing to see our son grow into an amazing little boy, and credit is due to the wonderful teachers and staff at Pascals.”

“We have enjoyed a fantastic year of care for our little girl. Her learning and speech development has been amazing and she loves to see her teachers and little friends each day.”

“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.”

The barber was so gentle and patient, making sure our little one felt safe and comfortable the whole time. They even gave us a little keepsake of his hair in an envelope— such a sweet touch for a milestone moment! The place was clean and welcoming.Thank you so much for making his first haircut so special and memorable. Highly recommend this barbershop to any parents out there!”

“Kids Cove is a amazing centre. My son has been attending the centre for a year and a half and I am grateful for the time , effort, love and care that was given to him. Especially the Storytellers team, Teacher Shuchie and her team have done an amazing job teaching my son, he comes home every day using big words like Translucent and Transparent and explaining to me what those words mean. Those are just a simple example of how much my son has thrived intellectually and emotionally at Kids Cove.”

“Booked this for my daughter’s birthday. It was amazing! Kids had so much fun and staff were very friendly and accommodating! Highly recommend”

“I can't believe it's been a year already since I first started dancing at UCan2. I can honestly say I've enjoyed every minute. My highlight so far was definitely working towards and completing the medal test. The instructors are amazing, supportive, warm and so much fun to dance with. My fellow dance students are absolutely wonderful to dance with and provide endless laughs and camaraderie. Brilliant location with tons of parking too. Such a well-run studio that makes everyone feel like family. Thank you UCan2 crew.”

“Love love love Mainly Dance classes - have been doing barre for a number of years and the recent addition of reformer Pilates has been fantastic. It adds an extra layer to the week’s workouts. Kelly and her team strive never to have the same class twice and the energy that Kelly gives to each class is nothing short of amazing. Highly recommend.”

“Our daughter has been with C2B for over a year now and we couldn't be happier with the care she receives. The teachers are incredible and support her growth and development in so many fun ways. We love that she gets to play with the older kids as well as the kids her age which creates such a wonderful bond between the kids and teaches her to interact with people of all ages. We have and will continue to recommend C2B to all our friends and families!”

“We had our staff Christmas lunch at Emily’s and had a great time & amazing food. We did a cooking class with lovely Emily and her just as lovely staff and then had a Greek meal. So good - highly recommend”

“We’ve had a great experience with Cherie as a piano teacher. She creates a supportive and encouraging environment that helps build both confidence and skills. My daughter has made great progress. We highly recommend Cherie.”

“10/10 facility, 11/10 coaches, and 12/10 community. It's amazing what happens when structure meets passion - I had the opportunity to roll with a few guys at every level and learned something from each one of them. Can't recommend this place enough, and I can't recommend the craft in any way that would do it justice. Stop reading reviews, and just show up. You will be welcomed. You will learn. And you will grow!”
