Facilities

West Auckland Day Care Centre is located in Waitakere, West Auckland. A completely fenced childcare facility with a large well-maintained park, front and backyard facilities, spacious playing rooms, and complete with a wide range of outdoor toys and a large sandpit. Both indoor and outdoor toys are regularly sanitised and updated.

The centre's wide park gives children enough shade to enjoy the outdoor environment. On rainy days, we play in the spacious indoor rooms and covered outdoor playgrounds where we do our arts and crafts, dress-ups, storytimes, dance, birthday parties, and many other fun and exciting events.

Our Philosophy 

Our philosophy is to provide a safe, challenging, nurturing and positive atmosphere and space for all children, regardless of gender, race, or skill, so that children can learn through active exploration while being healthy and protected. The individual early learning needs of children are met in a supportive and sensitive manner to enhance warm interactions with adults and peers.

Our Vision

• We assume that all children are individuals with their own talents and abilities.
• We promote our concept of "kid's comfort zone" and endeavour to build a daycare with an awesome learning environment in which children feel safe, secure, and happy while learning and adapting to the unique needs and desires of each child.
• We recognize that in order to make both children and their parents feel relaxed, we must always have a welcoming, stable, healthy, and well-supervised early learning centre.
• We agree that the stage of development of a child is special and that there must be opportunities for the child to grow socially, emotionally, mentally, physically, creatively, and spiritually.

These are achieved through a balance of early learning, stimulation, and nurturing.

School Programmes

The services are focused on the strengths and needs of children, as defined by observations made by both teachers and parents and staff. Emphasis is put on building self-esteem, self-respect, responsibility, and a sense of belonging in every person, while interest is encouraged as per the evolving curriculum.

West Auckland Day Care Centre provides a loving environment, secure and positive atmosphere for children, while at the same time promoting their welfare and well being, learning and development while encouraging environmental consciousness. West Auckland Day Care Centre gives children an appreciation of nature, care of animals, and the rural climate, as well as an appreciation of their peers and friends.

Client Testimonial

"Our little man just loves going to West Auckland Day Care Centre. He's having so much fun, and the teacher is not only kind and gentle with the kids, but she's going to teach them things like brushing their teeth, potting training, etc. That's amazing. Having only four kids at one time means they've become great friends, and the kids just love each other. Highly recommended daycare school!" - Morgana
