It is our fundamental belief that children learn best when they learn at their own pace and in their own way. In our small family sized groups, children can follow their own rhythms and routines and be who they are. Family is the basis of the community. Strong foundations build strong family, strong f

What a fab morning 🥰

We spent the morning with Kiddz Homebased Childcare whānau, and it was such a beautiful session! We loved that the adults and kids were all singing along with us! It was like a choir 🥰
We jumped, spun and danced! The tamariki did a great job with the poi and loved throwing the snowballs!
We brought the twinkling star material out for Tirama which was a beautiful way to end the session.

Thank you for the beautiful welcome sign too! Colorful and creative!

And a shout to one of our favourite little helpers, our niece Salote, who is really just a part of the team! She knows every action and all the words and she's only 2 1/2!

We're excited to be back to classes next week with some fun animal themed songs! We're sold out of full term spots, but we do have some casual spots left 🙌🏾

Mānawatia a Matariki ✨🌟

As we celebrate Matariki, we take time to reflect on the importance of connection, whānau, and the communities that surround and support us.

Matariki reminds us to look back with gratitude, celebrate the present, and look forward with hope. These values are woven into the heart of what we do at Kiddz, nurturing relationships, creating a sense of belonging, and supporting our tamariki to grow and thrive within caring, connected environments.

In early childhood, we know that children learn best when they feel safe, valued, and connected. Through our relationships with tamariki, whānau, and our amazing educators, we create a community where children can explore, discover, and develop a strong sense of who they are.

Today we celebrate the beautiful connections that make our Kiddz whānau so special. Thank you to all our educators, children, and families for being part of our journey.

Wishing you and your whānau a peaceful and meaningful Matariki.

✨ Matariki Celebration ✨

Yesterday, we gathered for a very special hapori at All Saints Church in Burwood to celebrate Matariki.

The space was filled with the soft glow of twinkly lights, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere for tamariki and whānau to connect, create, and celebrate. We shared stories in our cosy corners and teepees, decorated star biscuits, made poi, and enjoyed a truly special music session with our very lovely and much-loved Julie Wylie.

It was such a joy to see everyone come together to honour Matariki, a time for reflection, connection, remembrance, and looking forward with hope.

Ngā mihi nui to everyone who joined us and helped make this celebration so special. ✨⭐️🖤

✨ Mānawatia a Matariki ✨

As Matariki rises, we pause to remember, celebrate, and look to the future.

Across our homebased communities, our educators have created meaningful experiences for tamariki to explore, reflect, and connect.

Through stories, art, nature, kai, and moments of wonder, our tamariki are learning about the stars, our traditions, and the importance of whānau, gratitude, and hope.

Thank you to our incredible educators for nurturing curiosity, fostering connection, and helping our tamariki shine brightly, just like the stars of Matariki.

Remembering the past.
Celebrating the present.
Looking forward to the future.

Ngā mihi o Matariki. ✨

Wishing you and your whānau a season filled with aroha, connection, and light 💫
