I wish I could give more stars! The Blue Cottage is our child’s second home. It’s our village. Our child’s safe place, their comfort and where they can feel like their true self. Every morning, we are greeted with a mōrena and instant contact with at least one kaiako. We’re welcomed with questions about how our child is and how we (his parents) are doing too. All the staff are so easy to talk to, and the most loving, caring and beautiful humans. As two full time working parents, it is hard without any family support but The Blue Cottage team helps in ways that takes the pressure off and for that we cannot thank them enough. Any incident is reported to us instantly, the processes and policy is followed through thoroughly and the team always make sure to follow up with comms to make us feel secure in the protocols. We cannot rave about TBC enough and hope to be part of the whanau for many years to come ❤️ THANK YOU again TBC team 😊
Our family loves The Blue Cottage. It has a familial atmosphere. All details have been considered to ensure you feel safe, welcome, and that your child’s needs are being adhered to. The activities the teachers come up with are next to none. Jo and her team are exceptional communicators and you can bet they’ll work hard to accommodate you. 10/10 would recommend.
Blue cottage is amazing! The teachers are fantastic, and the centre is so charming. Our little boy had three fantastic years there. They go above and beyond with their whānau connections and celebrations. As well as having clear communication and great systems for the day to day. I would highly recommend this place.
