Where the wairua of every child is nurtured

We take care of little bodies and minds here at BestStart Coast Boulevard. We know if a child eats well and exercises regularly that they’re more likely to be a happy, healthy adult. We’ll make sure your child has lots of opportunities to take care of their physical and mental health. They can take scoot around our large outdoor area or take a minute to relax with yoga.

Our teachers are experts at bringing our children’s imaginations to life through play. From going on bear hunts to building giant skyscrapers; every moment is a teaching moment. We also recognise the need for your child to take risks and explore and are great at finding the balance with bits of quiet time during the day to help them recharge.

We want to make sure all our children feel like they belong. We celebrate culture and diversity, welcoming all to our centre whanau. Our team will support your child in every adventure they set their mind to and develop experiences to build skills, interests and the ability to be a successful part of a group.

Your baby will be cared for by passionate teachers who specialise in working with this age group.  Our well resourced indoor areas, combined with a spacious well shaded outdoor area designed for younger children, offer them plenty of opportunity to explore and grow at their own pace.

Our learning space for two to five-year-olds is separated into three indoor settings with a combined outdoor area.  This ensures opportunities for older and younger children to mix and mingle, as well as providing heaps of space to be physically active and engaged in the outdoor programme.

Our programme is nurturing, respectful and guided by individual needs and interests.  Our teachers will work with you, whānau and the wider community to provide an environment that helps each child succeed.

By following your child’s cues, we’re able to encourage learning experiences across a variety of areas, which in turn supports them to become ready for school.

Sustainability is a budding focus at BestStart Coast Boulevard, supported by our well planted outdoor area.  The beginnings of recycling, gardening and a worm farm are helping our youngest build skills for the future.

We care about our community and we’ve been getting to know our local Primary Schools and exploring the local walks to the sand dunes and parks.

kind words from our parents

Clodagh Sutton

We had the difficult task of deciding to move our daughter from her old daycare. But what a great decision to move to Beststart Coast Boulevard! Our daughter is so happy there & even talks about going on her days off. The center is a beautiful and calm space with a huge outdoor area which was really important to us. I'm especially impressed with the communication, open, friendly, honest & fun. It seams they are really building a lovely community here & i cant recommend it enough. 5 stars for location, staff, layout & equipment.

We have been so happy with moving our daughter to BestStart Coast Boulevard. The teachers are so caring and have made the transition really easy. My daughter loves the teachers and is loving all the toys and the activities provided. One of the big bonuses for me is not having to battle the Mount traffic in the morning anymore as it’s a quick 2 minutes down the road instead of a 30min round trip

Natasha

I’m so grateful for the patience, enthusiasm and passion you all show. The centre has a sense of calm and warmth. The teachers are so accommodating of children’s differences and don’t let this hold them back. You are helping to set the children up for a lifetime of success.

My daughter has been at BestStart Coast Boulevard for around six months. I was concerned that it might take a while for her to transition (from her last preschool) but this was not the case at all. The wonderful teachers went above and beyond to make her feel safe and secure with lots of cuddles and fun activities. BestStart Coast Boulevard is a wonderfully resourced centre with amazing teachers, which I highly recommend”.

Parent

Simply it’s just awesome how they care for children and keep them engaged with new things . Especially Sharn, Kaya , Nicole , Debbie and all of them are big part of my daughters growth. I feel so relaxed every drop off.

Parent

Staff are all very friendly, meals are well prepared, rooms standards are well cleaned and maintained, updates and communication are always informed well. My children are very happy here.

Parent

I can't fault the centre in any way. From a warm and welcoming reception - Sanela is wonderful. To caring and friendly teachers , my children absolutely love them and I could not be more thankful. I could not have made a better choice to send my little ones to Coast Boulevard. Your team is absolutely amazing and there is not a single thing or person I could fault.

Parent

It’s more like family to me here. Sharn is so amazing always there whenever I need emotional support. Rosie and all other staff been taking so much care like it’s their own kids and Angela is like grand mum for my daughter . Raising her is big task without family in NZ but BestStart Coast Boulevard makes it much easier for me
