Te Atatu South Childcare Centre

About

Fun and friendly early childhood centre serving in the community for over 20 years.

Story

Our Centre is family based and privately owned. We are big enough to provide a wide range of experiences to develop your child's potential, but small enough to know each and every child, and their family. Our Centre has been operated by the same management team since opening.

Our Centre caters for children from babies to school age. Though licensed for 50 children, on average we have 10 under 2's and 35 2 to 5 year olds. We have 3 separate learning environments divided by gates, not doors, so siblings are able to see each other throughout the day if they wish.
We have a strong, dedicated teaching team that have been together for a number of years. Our teachers are experienced in behavioural management and our teachers have experience with children who have special needs.
We employ a full time cook who provides morning and afternoon tea as well as a nutritious healthy cooked lunch containing one starch, one protein, and at least four vegetables. Special diets are easily catered for whether it is for medical or cultural reasons. Children who are over 4 have lunch box days which helps them prepare for eating independently at school.
