“Seven years. That’s how long Bloom has been part of our family, and now that my son has finished daycare, it feels surreal to say goodbye. To Fiona, Olivia (our incredible manager), Sharleen, Marieke, Sonya, Sarah, Lucy, Shaleece, Vanessa—and anyone I may have missed—I can’t begin to describe how grateful I am. Bloom has been the absolute best place to entrust my children, and the love, care, and support you’ve given us over the years means everything. Fiona, you’ve been like a nana to my kids. Vanessa, I’ll never forget how you helped me toilet train Victoria. Olivia, you were there to help me give Victoria her first bottle at 11 months old. Sonya, you’ve been an incredible educator for my son. And Lucy—Luce—Stefan adores you. Every single one of you brilliant women has played such a special role in our lives. Thank you for not just looking after my babies, but for supporting our whole family. We will miss you all so much!”

The staff are amazing and such knowledgeable, caring and fun people who see children as the unique super beings they are. They not only welcome the children to the kindergarten but they also welcome the families and whanau and take time to get to know us all and have us share in our child’s exploratio of the world around them, learning and development. My children both have thrived from their days here and we love it for our family too!”

“Papamoa kindergarten has been great for my son. He has learnt so much and has a great relationship with all of the staff. I struggled with toilet training my son even though I had started him early, once I started to make some progress I let the kindy teachers know and they maintained his toileting even with him being difficult. He was toilet trained within the next few months. We also had trouble with him going through a hitting phase but with the support, understanding and help of the kindy teachers it didn't become a bigger issue and soon died down. I always feel very comfortable hanging around the kindy when picking him up and being right next to the primary school, I feel as though I'll have no trouble transitioning my son when he turns 5. I'm so grateful to have chosen Papamoa kindergarten for my boy.”
