31 Kidiwise
“Kidiwise is the best daycare around! Our friends in other areas are so jealous of what our son gets up too! It’s not about being the top looking with fake trees its about kids being kids, creating, building, exploring their own native bush weekly! Pony rides, hatching chickens and swimming in the spa! We can’t recommend kidiwise enough we love the imagination it lets our son have and the teachers who support him.”

32 BestStart Judea
“We are so grateful for the wonderful environment at BestStart. Our daughter has grown so much in confidence since starting here—she’s building friendships, enjoying a wide variety of activities, and most importantly, feels a real sense of belonging. The teachers are warm, patient, and encouraging, and it’s clear how much they genuinely care about the children. We can see every day how much our daughter enjoys coming to daycare, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing she is not only having fun but also learning important skills along the way. Thank you to the entire BestStart team for the love, effort, and positivity you bring—it truly makes such a difference. We couldn’t be prouder of child and more thankful for the supportive environment she’s surrounded by.”

43 Above and Beyond Education & Care Centre Tauriko
“Absolutely Outstanding! I cannot speak highly enough of Above & Beyond Castle Tauriko. My son attends this centre, and from day one, the care, love, and support he has received has blown me away. Sam and the entire team of teachers are simply incredible — warm, nurturing, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth and happiness. Even though we don’t live or work in the area, we continue to travel to the Castle every day because nothing else compares. The way they care for my son gives me total peace of mind — I know he’s not only safe but thriving in their hands. The environment is fun, enriching, and full of heart, and the connection the staff create with families is something truly special. I’m also so thankful that Above and beyond worked with me and held my sons place in the daycare while I searched for a new job once I was made redundant, they went literally above and beyond for me and my son and I love going to pick up my son and see the teachers and see how happy my boy is Thank you so much for everything”

45 Kids on Nineteen
“I have had two children attend Kids on 19, with one still currently attending. The teachers are some of the most genuine people you will meet, who go over and above to meet the needs of the children attending and wider whanau. They have been the subject of some very unfair and misguided media critique, fueled by people with their own separate agendas. I am a very safety conscious person and if I had any concerns about my children attending whatsoever I would move them. I would not hesitate to recommend Kids on 19 to any parent looking for a wonderful centre.”
