Highly recommend Best Start Totara Park. Teachers and staff are welcoming and friendly. Communication is fantastic and they always go the extra mile. Centre is always warm and inviting. Always plenty of activities to explore for the children! It's hard to get my child to leave at the end of the day as she is so happy there! Thanks for being so amazing!

BestStart Totara Park has a beautiful family feel — it truly is a home away from home for our tamariki. I feel so confident leaving my daughter there, knowing she’s in a warm, secure, and enriching learning environment. The outdoor area is fantastic, with sheltered spaces that allow the children to enjoy fresh air and play even during the winter months. The teachers are not only excellent and caring, but the centre also hosts lovely family events throughout the year. A big thank you to everyone for the love, effort, and dedication you put into caring for our tamariki!

We have had our three kids come through Best Start Totara Park with our youngest due to move onto school knowing he will miss it as his siblings did when they moved on.

We have enjoyed our time here with the support from the teachers over the years teaching and working with our family to get the best out of them by building confidence and importance of values.
Helping them achieve goals along the way and preparing them for school.

It has been an awesome journey for our  family where we have been able to have a better understanding of other cultures and celebrate this along the way.
