BestStart Te Atatu Road

Our infants space is a warm, peaceful haven where pēpi are embraced with aroha and respect. Guided by the values of manaakitanga and whanaungatanga, our kaiako build strong, responsive relationships with each child and their whānau.

We provide a nurturing environment that supports emotional security, sensory exploration, and early communication. Every moment is an opportunity to foster trust, belonging, and the foundations of confident learning.

In our toddlers space, curious minds and busy bodies are celebrated! Tamariki are encouraged to explore, express, and connect through play, movement, and meaningful interactions.

With tuakana-teina and rangatiratanga at the heart of our approach, we support growing independence while fostering empathy and collaboration. Our inclusive environment empowers toddlers to develop their identity, resilience, and a strong sense of belonging within their learning community.

Our preschool space is a vibrant, dynamic environment where tamariki are supported to become confident learners and leaders. With a strong focus on Set For School, we nurture essential skills such as communication, problem-solving, self-regulation, and social competence.

Through the lens of rangatiratanga and tuakana-teina, children are empowered to take ownership of their learning, support their peers, and engage in rich, purposeful experiences. We honour each child’s journey and prepare them to transition into school with confidence and joy.
