Children's entertainment in New Zealand

“The Children's Cnr is such an amazing school and by far the best! My eldest daughter went through so many transitions in her short life and the teachers helped her through. The environment is a calm place allowing my daughter the best possible learning experience. He ability to communicate, interact, problem solve and self help skills has increased dramatically since attending this school.”

“Our daughter has been at KCC for a little over a year and it has been the absolute best thing for her! She has made great friends with children and teachers alike and it has been amazing for her overall confidence and growth.”

“A wonderful childcare provider in Silverstream Upper Hutt. The key focus at Children First is to provide a safe and friendly environment so pre- school children can learn. Children first do this very well with excellent staff who really care about their students' outcomes. All meals are provided and are healthy to provide a balanced morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea”

“Highly recommend ✅ always feel confident my son is being well cared for.”

“I have 3 children currently attending and the kids love it there. They are all treated as individuals and they're learning and growing so much. The centre provides meals that offer a good range of foods and healthy! There is open communication with teachers and center director and the teachers genuinely care for the kids and make amazing connections. We love it.”

“My son has been in New Shoots Sandhurst for almost 3 years. From Pipi as a baby, now in Taniwha as a young man :) His brother will soon be joining him there to start his journey. I can attest to the great management of Meg and the devotion of all the teachers. Even though we have moved away, we won’t move him out of the centre because he loves it sooo much. Thanks team!”

“A great team of carers dedicated to lookong after your child A great ambience and environment.”

“Both my boys are here. Pleased I chose it.”

“I have had the privilege of both of my children attending Montessori Children's House for their preschool years (3-6). Both children left Montessori for primary school with amazing foundations in reading, writing and maths. Not only this, but the environment and opportunities that Montessori provides to be creative, sporty and to explore nature and science, has been instrumental in allowing my children to become well rounded and ready for the world. The facilities are fantastic and the teaching team and management are supportive, kind and caring. The children and I found it very difficult to leave when it came time for primary school.”

“My daughter has been with NewShoots Whenuapai for the last three years and she’s absolutely loved it. The teachers are all so friendly and provide so much love and care. My daughter has really enjoyed the delicious variety of food and we love how healthy it is. The managers and receptionists are also amazing as they’ve always been so good with their communication and super supportive for our family. Overall we have loved our time at NewShoots and highly recommend this centre”

“My son started at All about Children right after he turned 1 & his transition was so hard as all transitions are. But shortly after that he settled in so well in the under 2’s room. He is thriving and has learnt & continues to learn so much !! I am extremely grateful for this centre that has provided a home outside his home for him to grow in the most positive way possible !! Kaiako Heather manages the under 2’s room & she is a wahine Toa, loving, kind, wise, comforting all while being firm to teach our babies healthy & positive emotions. Being a new mother you never know what centres is the best for your child & are sometimes unsure if you can trust these centres. Over time I have learnt day after day why I made the right decision to enroll my boy into All about children Avondale. AAC also provides a booklet for your child and they update it with what bubba has had for morning tea, lunch & arvo snack. Along with the nappies they have used. They also leave notes on how your child has progressed during the day. The friendly Kaiako’s never stop working hard for our leaders of the future. Knowing that the team at AAC is providing our babies with a nurturing upbringing outside of home is such a great feeling. I never stress once I’ve dropped my son to daycare because I can trust he’s being taken care of by AAC kaiako’s If you are thinking about bringing your child to All about children specifically Avondale branch. Book a tour & see what they are all about you won’t regret it. I will Gladly refer my family & friends in the area to this centre for sure !! 100% the best decision I’ve made !!”

“Absolutely love this daycare, lovely staff, beautiful grounds and a homely atmosphere.”

“My child has been going to this centre since 11 months old, currently in the Kindy room (Forest Kindy Program). An absolutely fantastic centre, my child has enjoyed every step of the way through with excellent learning and development opportunities for her. The Forest Kindy Program has been one of the highlights during her time there, being able to get out in nature - she calls it her forest adventures! Thank you so much to all the teachers and staff she has engaged with along the journey, all so caring the supportive. I particularly enjoy getting the updates on the app of her learning and experiences.”

“My daughter got her hand fractured and we rushed to this hospital. Their service was excellent right from assessment till X-ray and post X-ray discussion. Special thanks to Eleanor Shepherd was excellent situation handling and communication skills. She was really professional”

“We initially chose All About Children Naenae because it was a smaller centre and had a nice large outdoor space compared to our previous centre. It was OK when we started but we did have a few doubts that we had made the right move. Since the new centre management has come in it feels more organised and structured and we feel really happy with our decision. The staff have been awesome especially over the COVID-19 lockdown and the communication has been excellent.”

“We visited a lot of daycares in the area and chose the YMCA because we loved the community feel. The kids are always out and about, taking part in activities and visiting places like the gym, library and park. Our daughter took some time settling in but the teachers have been wonderful with her and now she has really found her feet and has made some great friends. We love the Y :)”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough good things about BestStart Wattle Downs Day Care! The staff is incredibly nurturing and dedicated, creating a warm and engaging environment for the kids. My child has thrived both socially and academically since starting here. The facilities are clean, well-maintained, and full of stimulating activities that encourage creativity and exploration. I appreciate the strong communication from the teachers, who provide regular updates on my child’s progress. It's clear they genuinely care about each child’s development. I highly recommend BestStart Wattle Downs to any parent looking for a safe and loving place for their little ones!”

“We could not have asked for more! No one left the dance floor, everyone laughed, sang there hearts out and the smiles filled the room highly recommend xxx”

“We have had the pleasure of crossing paths with JP a few times but we finally got to work closely together for the IKEA Opening. JP is absolutely fantastic and really got the crowd working and people laughing. He's got a marvellously funny energy and brought so much magic and joy to the people waiting in queue, and then roamed about instore with his lights. Would highly recommend you grab him while he's available as a magician, circus performer, balloon artist- basically a jack of all trades for your next event!! Can't wait to work together again JP- you made the long hours sooooooo fun and jept us entertained too!!”

“Both of my daughters have attended Dreamers Nest, and I’ve been really impressed with the experience. My eldest was well prepared for school after her time there, and the transition was smooth. My younger daughter is currently enrolled and thriving. The teachers are warm, attentive, and genuinely care about each child’s development. Dreamers Nest creates a nurturing, engaging environment with the right mix of play, learning, and emotional support.”
