Quality childcare and early education

We are proud that our Te Atatu centre holds a ‘well placed’ 3 year ERO review.

Ko te manu e kai ana i te miro nōnā te ngāhere. Ko te manu e kai ana i te mātauranga nōnā te ao

The bird that consumes the miro owns the forest. The bird that consumes knowledge owns the world​

At Kimberley Childcare Te Atatu, we firmly believe that every tamaiti (child) is a unique taonga (treasure), cloaked in whakapapa (descent/ancestry). We seek to nurture them in a fun, loving and caring environment – a whare (home) away from home.

​We are a multicultural centre that respects the diverse cultures, languages and identity of all and celebrates that everyone is a taonga (gift/treasure).

About Kimberley Childcare

We have two unique centres in Auckland. Our Greenlane centre is ranked in the top five percent of Auckland Childcares and is in a handy location near the Greenlane Roundabout, Countdown and McDonalds. Our Te Atatu centre is perfectly situated in Te Atatu South, near Countdown with an under twos and a preschool building well set out to cater to your child’s needs.

Our kaiako (teachers) stand firm on the saying, “Mā te huruhuru, ka rere te manu.” “Adorn the bird with feathers so it may soar.”

The bird’s feathers resemble the tamariki (children) being supported, nurtured, loved and cared for by strong, knowledgeable kaiako (teachers). This allows tamariki (children) to learn new skills as they are given qualities in life and learning that enable them to soar high in their new journey at Kimberley Childcare and for their future.​

Our focus is helping each individual with their potential through growing in a healthy mix of educational and recreational activities.

​Te Whāriki (the curriculum) makes a bold impact on the tamariki’s (children’s) learning and development helping them to grow confidently and competently from birth.
