At BestStart Peachgrove we believe in creating trusting relationships with our families!

At BestStart Peachgrove we develop partnerships with families. We are small centre with a maximum of 36 children, which allows us to nurture strong connections with all of our whānau and tamariki. These relationships allow us to understand what is important for each family and child, ensuring we can individualize learning and support their growth.

In Claudelands, on a quiet suburban street you will find us hidden down a long driveway. We are classic community nursery and preschool with a lot of heart. We are proud to be growing our future generation.

Our Team

kind words from our parents

Parent

The family atmosphere is fantastic. My Son still loves to come in to see all his friends before and after school and my Daughter is so happy she never wants to come home. Our family likes that it is a smaller centre so it is a lot more personal.

Parent

I have had 2 children at this beautiful centre. I was very impressed with the care and education we received. The teachers are very passionate and it is evident they love what they do. They go above and beyond to meet the needs and learning goals of each child. They really take the time out to get to know your whole whaanau. We love the bi-cultural learning they provide. We absolutely loved that our children were able to start off their learning experience off in such an amazing loving and supportive environment.

Parent

My slow to warm up to people and places son has been guided with responsive and compassionate interactions and opportunities from the BestStart Peachgrove teachers. He went from a boy who cried and cried to one who confidently leaves my side daily. I enjoy hearing all his stories about what he does daily and love how the staff are committed to bringing him out of his shell a little bit more each day.

Parent

BestStart Peachgrove has nurtured my youngest son, who has a very strong personality, with love and boundaries to ensure he develops uniquely as an individual. I leave him daily knowing he will; be well looked after and challenged to be the best he can be.

Parent

The staff at BestStart Peachgrove have been very supportive. My oldest son has additional needs and the staff have handled these with sensitivity and grace. they regularly communicate and update me with how his day has gone and share any achievements as well as concerns. Thoroughly recommend this centre to anyone!

Parent

My son had been at BestStart Peachgrove since he was two years old until he moved on to school. Over this time we have watched him grow into this confident and capable child. His personality has been nurtured and loved. His natural born leadership skills have been embraced and utilized within the centre to allow him the opportunity to support others and channel his energy into a positive place. Thank you to the amazing kaiako that have loved our boy and made our whanau feel so involved and cared for!
