### null review (5/5)

We’ve been apart of this centre since 2017 and have had all 3 of my kids attend this daycare with my youngest still attending.

We’ve grown to know each teacher especially the ones who have been there since we made the centre home in 2017. I’ve never had to worry about any of my children because the care at best start Manurewa is amazing, they’re very gentle and have helped so much with my kids learning.

We’ll be sad to say goodbye to them forever once my youngest turns 5, but I’ll be forever grateful for this centre for welcoming us and being apart of my children’s education journey.

The teachers are very caring and nurturing. Both my children are very much settled and enjoy attending daycare. They are very much well cared for by the teachers. Phoebe, Theresa and all the teachers do such a great job! Thank you

We love how BSMC always champion celebrating diversity and the uniqueness of every culture in beautiful Aotearoa 🙌🏾❤️ Thank you for valuing our children’s cultural identities and helping our kids learn them importance of celebrating diversity in Aotearoa.  At BSMC my kids learn so many things, like the importance of Manaakitanga 💞 empathy is a very important value and I appreciate everything they are doing to implement these values at BSMC 🙏🏾

I’m so grateful for the wonderful educators at BestStart Manurewa central.The entire staff are warm, welcoming and always up for a chat about how the kids are doing. Over 2 years ago since my youngest of 7 kids started at 4months old together with my now 4 year old.  We are so happy to see the development of our babies through the daycare’s implementation of learn through play, incorporating various cultures,  teaching them the importance of diversity and kindness, the teachings are endless and I’m so grateful 🙏🏾 Visits to the elderly residents at the nearby retirement home are amazing experiences, which nurture community spirit and empathy - values that are very important to us as a family and I’m glad to see that BSMC help to reinforce this. Amazing trips to the Auckland Zoo & Butterfly creek are so much fun, but a real highlight is the centre’s Matariki celebration night.

I can go on and on!But it doesn’t cover what a great centre it really is and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a local daycare centre for their children to go in & have a chat with Phoebe who is an AMAZING centre manager 100% recommend!
