BestStart Newton

"Newton Best Start Daycare has exceeded all our expectations! From the moment we enrolled Vianna, we felt welcomed and supported. The facility is clean, bright, and well-equipped, and the educators are absolutely fantastic. Nita and her team create a warm and nurturing environment where Vianna feels safe and loved. We've seen significant positive changes in her social skills, confidence, and overall development. The daily updates and photos are a wonderful touch, and we appreciate the open communication. We are so thankful to have found such a wonderful daycare for Vianna!"

"One of the most profound strengths of this centre is the partnership and collaborative approach it takes with whānau. There is an open, ongoing dialogue between parents and Kaiako, with regular opportunities for whānau to provide input into their tamariki’s learning and development. The centre actively seeks and values whānau contributions, whether it’s in the form of cultural traditions, language support, or shared concerns (or my Mother coming to visit for a session of singing and dancing). It truly feels like a partnership where whānau and Kaiako work together for their tamariki’s well-being and growth. I really appreciated the way in which our little one’s transition could occur at our own pace with strong communication and an inviting approach which made us feel welcome and ‘at home’ from day one."

"Dedicated teachers who genuinely interact with, love and care for the kids."

"As a parent, I couldn't be happier with the care and education my daughter receives at BestStart Newton. The staff are exceptionally friendly and professional, creating a nurturing environment where my child feels safe and valued. The curriculum is engaging and well-structured, and I appreciate the emphasis on both academic and social development. Communication with parents is top-notch, and I always feel informed and involved in my child's progress. The facilities are clean, modern, and well-equipped. Overall, BestStart Newton has exceeded my expectations and has become a second family for us. Highly recommended!"

"As parents, we are incredibly grateful for the unwavering support we receive from BestStart. Being a new mum, I was initially hesitant about leaving my son in daycare, unsure of how he would adjust. However, from our very first time, my husband and I were welcomed by Nita and gently introduced our son to the infant area, allowing him to explore at his own pace. The genuine kindness from the entire team quickly put us at ease. To our delight, our son showed immediate interest and comfort, which reassured us that we had made the right choice. The transition was smooth, and each day since has only reinforced our confidence in this wonderful centre. The teachers include Komal, Nisha, Talita, and Shivani (sorry if I missed out on any other names) are exceptionally caring, treating our child with love, patience, and attention that truly warms our hearts. Nita’s confidence and leadership stood out, making our decision to stay with BestStart an easy one. We also treasure the thoughtful videos and photos we receive from Nita, capturing our son's joyful moments and milestones. The nurturing environment at BestStart is perfect for our toddler’s development, and knowing he is in such capable hands is an immense relief. Thank you, Nita and the entire team, for your dedication and care — we couldn’t have asked for a better place for our son to grow and thrive."
