Children's entertainment in New Zealand

“I got to wear a hat when it was my last day”

“Highly recommend Little Explorers Preschool. Our child loves it there. Fantastic facility, amazing outdoor space for the children to play which is what attracted us here originally. Great staff and a very community oriented small center.”

“Busy Bees is a wonderful family friendly environment for your child to grow and develop. We have enjoyed the experience very much and have enrolled our second child. He is a very busy almost 2 year old and he loves it. He runs into the Center and is always greeted by the smiling friendly staff. They do not hesitate to go above and beyond if you have a problem. They are very solution focused and deliver a high standard of care and education. Each child has a primary care giver but all of the staff deliver cuddles smiles and love as required. We get a summary of the day on pick up and regular updates via Story Park complete with photos. I recommend Busy Bees as the place to be and thank them for the care and love they have shown our family.”

“Highly recommend Lollipops Pukekohe to any family looking for a supportive and enriching preschool environment! We’ve had an amazing experience at Lollipops Pukekohe! The program is thoughtfully designed to encourage learning through play, and our child has really thrived. The staff are warm, caring, and highly professional. The facilities are fantastic, and there are lots of stimulating activities to keep the children engaged. We also appreciate the open communication between the staff and parents, making it easy to stay connected with our child's progress.”

“North Beach Playcentre has been such an amazing place for our whanau. My children have so much fun and have become confident, capable and ready to face challenges. I love the sense of community and having them in an Early childhood education where I am actively involved in their learning. We also love that all three of our children could play together in the same space.”

“amazing kindy.. the staff are really great and look after kids really well. you guys are awesome.. Monica the twin will gonna miss you and all of the staff there :) thank you very much..”

“We absolutely love the ECE centre our children attend! The teachers are friendly and always create a warm, welcoming environment. The outdoor space is fantastic, providing plenty of room for the kids to play and explore. Plus, the creative activities they organise are both fun and educational.”

“The children are happy, busy and content. The teachers are doing an amazing job of providing excellent care and education. Love this centre!”

“Melody is the best and such a great childcare centre. Very friendly and kind staff who really look after and genuinely care for the kids.”

“My daughter has been attending this childcare for approx 4 months now and it has been the happiest 4 months ever! She absolutely loves it here. All the teachers are incredibly skilled, patient, kind, dedicated and loving with all the children. It’s a very outdoorsy and creative childcare centre which is what we love the most. I would highly recommend enrolling your child.”

“I can't recommend CELC more highly. I have been blown away by the centre and the team who make it so special. My two children have blossomed during their time at CELC. The teachers are kind, caring and intentionally foster a safe, calm, stimulating environment for the children. There are fun new activities daily, the children are taught in a way which fosters a love of learning, and they learn not only information about how the world works but also about self-care, relationship skills and emotion regulation. The centre has exceeded my expectations. 5* and thank you so much CELC team!”

“Great to have something besides kids playgrounds. Off course these are also very important to the community.. But this fitness are, located on 2 corners of the park.. Provides very good opportunities for a decent upper body workout using your own weight. Also you could do jogs/runs from one corner to the other corner to have a cardio component as well. Ready to pump?”

“I visit a Feldenkrais practitioner there, Nicky Woodward, who does spectacular, so thorough, work for me there in helping me recover from some strokes that I had. She is helping me reconnect my brain to my body. She is so wonderful.”

“Beautiful co-working space. I love work here. The decor is so cool and everyone is so friendly and kind. I would highly recommend”

“Kas is such a beautiful lady who carries such great energy with her. This place is a actual santurary. Would highly reccomend the nest to anyone wanting to practice yoga/Get their kids engaged in the nature school holiday programme.”

“Great learning play environment for children and a team of passionate teachers that really care for there children”

“The teachers at BestStart Puketaha are nothing short of incredible. They have become our village that have supported us in raising our daughter since she was a baby. They put in so much care and love into our family, and have become so in tune with her and what she needs. As she heads off to school next week we are really sad to close this chapter but know that she has had the absolute best preparation for this next phase and beyond because of the journey she has had a Puketaha.”

“Amazing staff, i could not speak highly enough about the team. My children have grown in confidence, and they are so happy to be dropped off!!”

“Great bunch of people and very welcoming”

“Amazing kindy with very welcoming and nurturing staff”

“Had to go to Christchurch a day early than planned. And booked here last minute. The service and communication was amazing. The rooms is fantastic. The bathroom and shower great. Beds are so comfortable and a great night sleep. Would definitely recommend booking here”

“Thoroughly enjoyed baby massage with my 2 month old! Great environment and Alex was an awesome facilitator :) thanks so much!”

“Could not be more impressed with the staff here at Nottingham Ave. Their commitment to all children is incredible and are like family to us now. Highly recommend!”

“Friendly and professional team. The coaches are great at pushing you to achieve your best each workout and are incredibly supportive of you wherever you are in your fitness journey.”

“I can’t recommend Moana enough! I call her the baby whisperer as my son warmed to her instantly and just adores her. She has very low ratios in her care so your child gets undivided attention for the majority of their time with her. She goes above and beyond for your whanau and uses a lot of Te reo Māori in conversation with your little one which is amazing if that’s something you’re wanting. Moana is fantastic at caring, entertaining and looking after children as she is patient and kind but most importantly it’s her passion! Your child will feel super comfortable in her presence and in a home based setting. I wouldn’t trust anyone more than I trust Moana to look after my child. 10/10 Moana you’re a rockstar!”

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

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