Smiley Faces Educare

I've had one of my boys go through Smiley Faces and we loved every bit of it. They have a programme for 4yr olds that prep them for an easy transition into primary. It gave my son a great foundation in early learning and he started primary with confidence. I've put my two younger boys into smiley faces because we had the best experience with my eldest. Staff are always welcoming and help you tick off goals you want your kids to achieve and support early learning and so far my boys have aced it with the help of staff. So we're truly grateful for our smiley faces family.

From day one, Smiley Faces has felt like an extension of our own whānau. The staff are incredibly kind, warm, and are genuinely invested in the happiness and growth of each and every child. Our son has absolutely thrived since starting here. His confidence, social skills, and learning have come such a long way, and he surprises us every day with something new he’s picked up. Our absolute favourite thing about Smiley Faces is how beautifully they celebrate diversity and other cultures. They put so much thought into teaching the kids about different traditions, festivals, and backgrounds, making sure every child feels included, seen, and valued. It’s wonderful seeing our little one grow up in such an inclusive environment. ​ ​If you are looking for a nurturing, safe, and positive environment where your child will truly flourish, we cannot recommend Smiley Faces enough. We are so incredibly grateful for the amazing team there!

Our two children have been attending since 2023 and we've been so grateful!The team is caring and very supportive, always treat the children and families with kindness and respect. As a multicultural family, we especially appreciate how the centre embraces different cultures and teaches children to respect and celebrate diversity. It truly feels like we are raising our children alongside the team. Thank you for creating such a safe, happy, and nurturing place for our kids. Choosing this centre has been one of the best decisions we have made for our family.
