BestStart Raureka

Here at BestStart Raureka, we believe that every child belongs in an environment that is warm, safe, friendly and inclusive, where they can develop meaningful friendships and learn at their own pace.

We inspire our children to develop important skills such as self-regulation, confidence and to express themselves emotionally and creatively. Our childcare centre is well established within the community and provides affordable, award-winning care and education for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years old.

We incorporate matauranga Maaori (Maaori world view) in our centre to foster respect for the environment and to promote a sense of belonging. This bicultural approach nurtures curiosity, mindfulness, and connection - encouraging tamariki to see themselves as part of a living, interdependent world.

We are situated on a large back section, away from the hustle and bustle of the main road with safe off-street parking. Our environments have been carefully designed by our teachers to cater for all our young learners.
