Early Childcare: Kindercare
Kindercare provide exceptional early childcare and education, to ensure that each child is able to reach their full potential.
Looking for early childcare and education you can trust? Looking for an environment that will nurture your child through their formative early years, enabling them to reach their full potential?
Kindercare work in partnership with parents to provide outstanding early childcare and education to babies, toddlers and preschoolers.
Kindercare understands that parents will always know their child best, and therefore see the role of childcare providers as a partnership with you to provide the most loving, safe and experienced hands to care for your child when you can’t be there to care for them. Your involvement in life at Kindercare is not only valued, but actively encouraged.
The Kindercare journey began in January 1972, with just 3 staff and 12 children, and has grown steadily in response to ongoing requests from parents for additional centres. Today, Kindercare has centres in Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington and Hamilton.
Founder and Managing Director, Glennie Oborn’s background in education and an unwavering commitment to providing parents with a service that would enable them to return to paid employment, with peace of mind that their child was in good hands, were some of the key motivators for the establishment of Kindercare’s first centre in Milford. It has also guided Kindercare’s journey of growth ever since.
Kindercare is proud of and has confidence in their dedicated and professional teachers, who provide exceptional early childhood care and education to the children entrusted to them. Kindercare staff are selected for their commitment to children and for their ability to provide a service that reflects love, respect and an understanding of children. Their teachers are passionate about, and committed to, valuing children and keeping them Safe, Loved and Learning®.
Children are incredibly capable and the “Kindercare Way” is to value, appreciate and respect each child and to focus on developing their full potential in a supportive and loving early childcare environment. Kindercare also understand that the care and education of very young children cannot be seen as mutually exclusive. It takes a special person to see the world through the eyes of a child; the mystery, the fun, the wonder and the unknown. That’s why Kindercare’s world is designed for children.
Kindercare’s Excel Education program is all about Advancing Your Child’s Tomorrow, Today®. This carefully researched education program is a framework that enables their teachers to observe and document your child’s individual progress, interests and strengths.
From the moment you entrust your child to Kindercare, their professional early childhood educators acknowledge the privilege that lies in nurturing your child as they guide and support them on their journey of exploration and discovery of the world.
