Child space in Hamilton

“I don't have children here but have been a close neighbour since 1999. It has always been busy, with frequent improvements and the people attending have been friendly. I've posted a more recent photo to show how the mural has brightened up the place.”

“Absolutely one of the bests my kids have been to. Love the care and attention they give to each and every child.”

“My daughter has been at HOW Busy Bees Lakewood in Cambridge for the past 2.5 years. She absolutely loves it. So much messy play and the outside areas are so much fun. She runs to her room full speed every morning. Can’t speak highly enough of the staff! Also the food looks and smells amazing with a great variety. We will definitely be sending our son when his daycare journey starts.”

“Great atmosphere, very attentive with children and provides a bilingual component which is great.”

“Friendly preschool in lovely rural area, right next to Tauwhare school.”

“One of the best kindy in Hamilton. My son really enjoyed his learning journey. Each and every teacher were helpful and supportive and made his foundation to school really strong. Highly recommended ⭐️ ⭐️”

“Our kids truly love this kindy. I really value my children feeling they can do things on their own, and are encouraged to do so. It has the most amazing outdoor area for the kids to explore, and are actively encouraged to test their abilities by the teachers. My children come back so proud of the 'creations' they have made each day, and I know that as much as they have used the hot glue gun themselves, it was in a safe and supervised environment. It's so rewarding seeing at home how much they have progressed in academic areas like puzzles or recognising letters. But also in the ways they interact with others and problem-solving through their frustrations.”

“The teachers at Grasshoppers are amazing. The kids have a wonderful outdoor space to explore. Highly recommend.”

“i love that there is so much great outdoor space and lovely teachers.”

“We honestly couldn’t be happier with the care that we get here for our son. He has been there now for over a year and across two of the rooms at the centre (Koru and Tawa). He was at another centre previously and would have an absolute melt down every time he was dropped off. We just thought it was normal, until we started at The Park! I now hardly even get a good bye when dropping him off! All the Kaiako at the centre have been great to deal with. They know his quirks, and greet us by name every time we come in. Special dietary needs (as he was dairy intolerant) are all catered for, and they work to make sure there is good variety and monitor their actual eating, even for this fussy fella! There are activities nearly every day that help develop his motor skills, but also life skills! At just over 2 years-old now, his new favourite activity is to ‘I Cook’ and set up at the kitchen counter every dinner time to help get the family meals sorted. They also have access to a local play ground and large greens behind the facility (hence The Park) that they regularly go on excursions with the kids out in their Centre Sun Hats, and always provide notifications via the facilities app when they are heading out, a much appreciated update. We get some of the most amazing stories about his daily adventures through the app, and my family overseas are all signed up so they can stay up to date with how he is developing. So in summary, their waiting list to get in speaks volumes to the service they provide. Thank you to all of staff that that help care for him every day!”

“Our son loves going to daycare, he has been going Rototuna Early Education since 14 months old and is now nearly 3. Staff are nice and friendly and the centre has a great outdoor area for the kids to play in.”

“Montessori School House has great, friendly and dedicated staff, who have a true passion for what they do and it comes across in the way the staff care and educate the children in their care. The center is set up well to provide the perfect environment to enable the children to learn and develop to their best potential.”

“I want to thank Wendy on Tuesday and the young man on Sunday that helped me with professionalism and politeness on a mix up of cat food price. It's people like you that makes the shopping experience enjoyable wanting to return to your store. Thank you”
