School in Auckland

“More than a dance school, it’s a dance family. My girls absolutely love dancing here, would highly recommend to both boys and girls.”

“We had a great transition period and my daughter has been attending Mt Wellies since the beginning of the year. We absolutely love this place and the sole reason comes down to the amazing kaimahi. If you want to send your child to a place where they are looked after and valued as you do at home then Mt Wellies is the place!”

“Our child started in the under-3 class, and the transition was incredibly smooth, thanks to the loving and supportive teachers. Now that he's moved to the over-3 class, we can see how much he is learning and growing. His language skills have improved so much, and we're amazed at how he remembers all of his teachers' names—it shows how deeply connected and engaged he is with them. When he is sharing his story in daycare, it gives us such peace of mind knowing he's in a place where he feels happy and secure. We couldn't be more grateful for MyKindy Henderson and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a caring, enriching environment for their little one.”

“I run a sport and movement programme for the children at New Shoots Hillcrest and have loved working with the centre, their staff and children. The staff always do the utmost to ensure the children's needs are met and they are well cared for and I can see the strong relationships and nurturing bonds built between staff and child to allow them to thrive and grow in the environment. The facilities are great and enable the children to express themselves both indoors and outdoors and build friendships with the children in their respective rooms.”

“Big thanks to Keith, Russel, Peter and Dion for a great first gliding experience. Everyone at the club was friendly, knowledgeable and happy to help. Highly recommend.”

“Great experience at the mid winter lunch. Amazing food, wine, service and hospitality. Bee and Mike are absolutely lovely and we look forward to the next event. Thoroughly recommend!”

“A great wee daycare. All the staff are lovely and our son is really happy here.”

“We’ve been sending our son to Red Kite since he was just 7 months old, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. After visiting several childcare centers in the Mt Albert/Owairaka area, this one stood out as the best in terms of its Amazing teachers, excellent management, and spacious, well-designed facilities. The teachers are consistently engaging, caring, and full of positive energy. Anita and Judy, the owners and managers of Red Kite, are outstanding—they create a welcoming and nurturing environment where children thrive. The team has supported my son through every stage of his development, from lifting his head to crawling, walking, running, talking and now even dancing! Thank you, Red Kite, for your dedication and care. I highly recommend visiting this center if you’re looking for a top-notch childcare experience.”

“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.”

“Great class and teacher! I highly recommand it! I had bad memories with art class at school when I was a teenager and this class made me enjoy making art. Thank you so much for sharing those moments. Rachel”

“Amazing, welcoming friendliest place to be.”

“I joined BumpYoga when I was just about in my third trimester of pregnancy and returned when my baby was 2 months old for Baby Massage, then continued with Mums and Bubs Pilates. Jana is absolutely wonderful, her classes are fun, supportive, appropriate for mums pre and postpartum and my baby loves her. I have become stronger than I ever thought I would be 10 months after a C Section and I have Jana to thank. Highly recommend her classes to anyone I meet!”

“I really like this school. My child is well taken care of here. The receptionist, Michelle, is very friendly and always responds promptly to any questions or concerns. The teachers at the school are patient and loving towards the children. I can see my child's different growth through the Montessori learning method. The school is also very attentive, which makes me very satisfied.”

“We went to St Pauls went it was at its peak in the 70s. A diverse range of students from all the Croatian kids from West Auckland to boarders from all over the region. Lots of locals kids from Ponsonby, Grey Lynn and Pt Chev .The brothers were very strict and a caning was a distinct probability if you played up .”

“I would recommend this preschool without hesitation. My son has absolutely thrived here, and our family will be forever grateful for the warmth, care, and dedication of the teachers. The nurturing environment has supported his growth in so many ways, and we couldn’t have asked for a better start to his learning journey”

“My son loves going to Active Explorer Central Park! Educators are very kind and caring, regular updates with photos and daily updates on children's activity book have built my confidence in this centre and trust pretty quickly. My son asks me every day to take him there, he has so much fun! He surprises me with new social skills every time and has made lovely bunch of little friends that make a party every time they see him come. When I drop him off he doesn't even want to waive good bye and when I pick him he wants to stay around!”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“I'm just so impressed with the service and care that we are getting from this centre. My daughter is a very introverted girl who was very shy to teachers and kids, and she just needed extra time to get use to the environment and the new people around her when first enrolled, but I really appreciate the teachers that they never give up on my girl, they keep encouraging my daughter to participate, try new things, and see her grow, letting her know that she's safe in this centre and that she's always welcomed. Every piece of work they do at the centre is so meaningful helping my daughter to learn and grow. Whenever I go pick her up now she's always not willing to leave and that she would share a lot with me on the way home about what she has done for the day. I really cant appreciate more, thank you so much to all the teachers. I would definately recommend this centre to those that are still trying to look for a daycare.”

“These guys were my savior! What an awesome experience, I’m super grateful for your help Renee, 10/10 customer service, you came to our rescue we ran out of water and made sure we got our water delivered faster to make sure we didn’t have to go without water for long! You have a new customer out of us.”

“I have been a long-time customer of Paladin and have consistently been impressed with the exceptional quality of their gear. Orders always arrive on time, and the products are reliable and well-made. I highly recommend Paladin to individuals, sports teams, and clubs seeking high-quality athletic apparel and equipment.”

“My two daughters have been practicing in Neverland over two years. We love this place. Nice environment and friendly staffs. And the end of year show is fantastic. We will definitely continue our dance journey in Neverland.”

“My son joined piano level 1 sessions for ten classes. He will come home and teach me how to play. He shows his interests in it. I am happy about the service here at Able Music Studio and would love to continue learning piano here.”

“Had a great experience renting from Megan at Lion Rock Surf Shop! She was really helpful in picking what board I should be using. Couldn’t recommend her enough and made my last day in NZ unforgettable!”

“Our daughter has been going here since she was about 3 and a half months. It was a very big decision for us and we are glad we chose this place. It is out of the way for us now, but we are continuing here because she is very happy and enjoys and learns with her wonderful teachers and friends. Would highly recommend Beststart Parnell :)”
