BestStart Te Atatu Peninsula

Our centre is a place where tamariki are nurtured with aroha, guided by the values of whanaungatanga, and supported on their unique learning journeys. In our Pēpi room, gentle and caring kaiako create a peaceful, loving environment that feels like home. Our toddler space encourages natural curiosity, allowing tamariki to explore and grow through play. In our preschool, they become confident, capable learners—little scientists preparing for their next step into kura.

We are proud to be an inclusive centre, welcoming all tamariki and celebrating the richness of diversity. Our passionate kaiako are dedicated to supporting children with additional needs, creating a space where every child feels seen, valued, and empowered to thrive.

Nutritious kai, prepared with care from scratch by our wonderful in-house cook, supports the wellbeing of our tamariki. At the heart of our kaupapa is connection—through celebrations, cultural events, and everyday interactions, we strengthen our ties with whānau and the wider community. This deep sense of belonging and shared journey is what makes our centre truly special.
