We truly couldn’t be happier with City Kids. Our two little ones (2 and 4) both attend, and it has been such a fantastic experience for our whole family. The team has created a wonderful environment where our children feel safe, secure, and genuinely cared for. They take the time to understand their personalities, and we’ve watched both of ours grow in confidence because of it. The centre is bright, clean, and full of thoughtful, engaging activities. We love that the children head out on regular adventures, from cable car trips, to football lessons and visits to local museums and libraries. There is a fantastic onsite chef and the central location is great for us as we work in the city. We feel so lucky to have found this special place.
We have had a wonderful experience with this daycare for our daughter. The teachers are warm, caring, and genuinely invested in the children. We receive regular updates about our daughter’s progress, which gives us great peace of mind. They also provide meals, allowing her to try different foods she may not have at home. Another highlight is the opportunity to connect with other families through the daycare’s organised events and family gatherings. Highly recommend!
From the very first visit, we felt a sense of belonging and trust. What could have been a daunting transition was made smooth and full of aroha by the incredible teachers and staff. City Kids has been our village — nurturing, guiding, and celebrating our boys every step of the way. The care, the community, the celebrations of culture, the encouragement of creativity and confidence — every part of this journey has been a gift. To any parents or whānau considering City Kids: I cannot recommend this centre enough. If you have the opportunity to send your children here, take it. They are everything you’d hope for in early childhood education — caring, dedicated, inclusive, and genuinely impressive. We leave with full hearts and deep gratitude for the foundation City Kids has provided.
