Let the uniqueness of the child guide our work

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 has been providing quality care and education for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years old. We are positioned 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.

Kind words from parents

"Tu meke Raureka, I love that my children are in a positive learning environment where tuakana/teina -whanau relationships are encouraged. I feel content as a mum that my babies are well taken care of and that the values we hold as a whanau are implemented through the early childhood education. Top effort teachers!! You do an amazing job and don’t get the recognition often enough. Keep up the meke mahi."
Parent
"The kaiako are so loving and friendly to my daughter and whanau. They genuinely care about my daughter as if she were their own child. They provide daily feedback about her learning and day to day care and routines."
Parent
"Awesome staff and facilities and a great atmosphere for children to learn and have fun and especially just being able to enjoy being kids . That itself makes it an absolute wonderful place for them to be themselves and to grow at the same time."
