School in Auckland

“I've been lucky to to call Mariposa Kids my home for the last 12 years and counting! We are a close knit team, who will go the extra mile for our children and their families. If you are looking for a home away from home, look no further Mariposa is where you want to be. Highly Recommend”

“My daughter loves to stay in palms preschool. She really had fun playing with her friends. It’s a nice daycare, they had heaps of activities for the children where my daughter improves her self esteem. For 6 months of stay, She learns a lot like her communication skills. She is now confident in communicating to other people around her and also for being independent. I was so amazed watching my daughter growing, She really improves a lot. For me as a mother, choosing the nice daycare for your child is important since it will be their second home. I was also amazed the teachers, very passionate in teaching not only in education but also the good values. It is highly recommended.”

“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!”

“A clean and tidy center where you want to send your kids. The most important thing to about this center is that the teachers are very supportive of your child’s need in terms of knowledge enrichment. The center has loads of activities included in their curriculum to educate kids about front line workers, festivals, diversity, and other important dates. The center is diverse culturally and neurodiverse too. That being said, they listen to parents and note the goals for your child and work towards accomplishing those goals. Definitely recommend and one of the best centers in south Auckland.”

“Moved to Pukekohe about 4 months ago, visited more than 5 daycares and Pukekohe Early Learning Centre is the one that I wanted to enrol immediately without any hesitation. The centre provides different nutritional meals every day. Lots of different activities and visits and walks. The teachers there are so nice and patient with children. They care every single one of them and look for the children’s interest and find out the best way of development for them. This is also the reason my child got so easy to transit and fit into the new environment. There is always feedback from the teacher to surprise me with how much my child can do without mum and dad! Now my child has lots of new friends and always looking forward to going to preschool!”

“We have our 2 boys attend KLC and they have been cared for extremely well. The staff are incredibly caring, ensuring each child gets genuine attention and a strong foundation in learning. KLC is definitely not your usual ECE, our boy is now off to Primary and KLC has done a tremendous job in setting him up for a great start to his schooling.”

“Kind attitude, all ages, elder the child more serious the approach.”

“The best kindy! We absolutely love the teachers and the atmosphere. We looked at several daycares and have zero regrets choosing Harbour View. Highlights: there is real grass, an amazing outdoor area, a huge room full of puzzles, and caring teachers who really get to know your child. Our child is thriving and growing in so many ways. We cannot say enough good things - thank you for being the best home away from home.”

“Awesome place. Teaches fundamental life skills to be successful in the ring and in life!”

“My child has been attending Pascals Albany for three years and absolutely loves it. The centre's welcoming environment and caring teachers are truly noteworthy. It's amazing how they treat us like family and inform us about my child's progress daily. I highly recommend Pascals Albany to anyone looking for a nurturing and supportive childhood centre.”

“I just wanted to come on here and give my feedback on Kidz Connect otahu as my son attends this day care. I want to start off by saying that I was so hesitant to send my son school so I stayed home with him for 2 years knowing that he was a shy reserved boy and thought he would be more comfortable at home with me (mum). It took me a lot of courage to finally enroll him and was abit scared how he would be since this was his first ever time being away from me hahaha. I do not regret one bit enrolling him into kidz connect, it took him a while to warm up to everyone but thank you to moa toddlers teachers for helping him prep for Huia pre school. For making him come out of his shell and finding his own voice, everyone there have made myself and my boy feel so welcomed and comfortable to the point he is happy to come to school everyday and that is a big change from my boy. Even from the amazing receptionist Val who always greets everyone who walks through the doors and making my boy feel comfortable before walking into class is what every parent want/needs. The best decision I’ve made for my son. Thank you kidz connect”

“Forever grateful to the Gillies team especially - Sara, Nape, Celine, Nithy, Leigh and Thelma. For consistency, accommodating, and compassion. My daughter has flourished and grown over the 4 years she has been a student at BestStart. It has been her home away from home and she has spent more time with this team then some of her own relatives. She has never complained or raised any concerns.”

“A very good dance studio. Great floor, though the far left corner is a bit patched. The interior looks and feel posh. The mirror is huge. A very great place to learn & practice your dance.”

“Our Son, Cohen is 11 and for over 3years now Georgi (Debrov) has helped with his technique and style, which has also helped increase his stage confidence. Cohen already had natural ability, having been playing since he was 3 however Georgi has been able to help him learn different genres especially Jazz. Georgi is a very cool music teacher and so kind & patient with his approach - Cohen really looks forward to his weekly drum sessions and understands the importance of reading his music sheets (it really is another language) Thank you so much Georgi!”

“It's an amazing place to learn boxing skills or sort of skills if you want to learn boxing but TBO is the Best”

“Teachers at kelly's preschool care for kids as if their own family. My kid is always excited and happy to go to kindy.”

“Really happy with this place! Loads of parking and it's not right by the main road, so dropping off and picking up isn't a hassle with fewer cars around. They don't cram in too many kids, so each child gets plenty of attention from the teachers. The staff are great with the little ones. Plus, there's a huge space for the kids to play and learn, with both indoor and outdoor gardens. My child come a long way here – from shy to super confident by the time she hit primary school. Couldn't be happier! It's not too expensive compared to others with meals included. A BIG THANK YOU PLC!!!”

“My daughter (almost 2 years old) loves going to daycare! She gets to experience things she may not always get to do at home and has made so many friends. The staff are all very friendly.”

“Great staff and support environment. Both our daughters have enjoyed attending beststart papatoetoe over the past years. They have learned a lot and made great relationships with peers and teachers”

“Fantastic place for kids and big kids to learn a range of dance styles. Inclusive, energetic and super fun environment for everyone!”

“Very good music school and fantastic people”

“Amazing, Friendly and fun teachers. All three of my children attend/attended Kindercare Rewa and have all been under great care. Our eldest has just moved onto Primary School, however she still talks about her Preschool teachers. Which demonstrates the closeness and genuine relationships she had built with her teachers at Kindercare. I couldn’t recommend them more, they are supportive and caring of our kids and very welcoming of us parents. Thank you Kindercare for always creating a fun and safe environment for our kids to thrive in everyday.”

“Hands down. The best daycare you could send your children to. I am so glad I pulled my daughter out of her previous one and brought her here. The drive is definitely worth it. ALL the teachers are amazing, friendly and welcoming. Hurricane has made our journey here so easy!! Everyone here feels like family & I am sad my girl has now left. Thank you for loving her like your own and making it her second home. She has learnt so much and has been well prepared for school. I appreciate you all!”

“The Learning Corner is a warm welcoming daycare and we are 100% happy with their wonderful care. Each day we are greeted like family by both the lovely teachers and gorgeous kids. The sugar-free policy puts us at ease knowing our son is going to get good healthy (and yummy) meals each day, and he comes home buzzing about the things he has learnt during the day through their discussions and playing. Our boy has thrived there, and we have recommended The Learning Corner to many of our friends. Thanks guys – you’re awesome!”

“Cole is an amazing tutor and we have been fortunate to have him tutor our son for the past two years. He makes maths make sense. He is friendly and encouraging and our son has gone from fearing maths to enjoying his tutoring sessions.”

“I absolutely love the teachers and the environment. I feel like I am leaving my baby with motherly figures who are so awesome in what they do. I have seen my baby growing up and achieving his milestones. Love every teacher in the center who do their best to help my baby. Thank you so much. Highly recommended.”
