The most down to Earth, loving, caring, welcoming and helpful lot of teachers. My daughter is picky with her environment and people but she absolutely loved it here, loved her teachers and all the friends she made over the years! She’s now graduated kindy and off to big school. I’m so grateful we found Little Gems, we’re going to miss everyone so much! Thank you all for all the love you showered our baby with! Love always from Korey-Leigh and her whole family xoxo

I am very happy with the quality of care and education that Little Gems provides for my child. The staff are friendly, professional, and passionate about their work. They create a warm and welcoming environment where children can learn and grow through play and exploration. The centre is well-equipped with a variety of resources and activities that cater to the different needs and interests of the children. The centre also follows the Te Whāriki curriculum, which supports the holistic development of the child. I appreciate the regular communication and feedback that the centre gives me about my child's progress and wellbeing. I highly recommend Little Gems to anyone looking for a nurturing and stimulating childcare service.
