MARC ELC is a safe, supportive and caring learning environment.  My son has attended since 5 months old and as a new parent their care towards babies and feeding Mums is excellent.  I’m so thankful to have found a place where my child is excited to go to, sad to leave, happy when he’s there and lovingly cared for.  The approach of the centre and staff promotes play based learning, and encourages qualities such as empathy and kindness in the children.

Their flexibility and support for parents is also very much appreciated.  The best possible start in life for our tamariki.

Edited review: my son went to MARC since he was 2 years old, and only left for Primary school at the age of 5. Those 3 years were a valuable time in his childhood when he had his best friends, best teachers, and sweetest memories. I could not ask for more from the MARC team - they had all the compassion, patience, and love to offer my child. Our background culture was Asian - which is quite different from Kiwi's style and to be honest, we were a little nervous about our child's settling in this new environment. However, Meg and her team had done an amazing job and comfort us. No cultural shock or any hassles for us at all. Highly recommended!

Finding a day care for our daughter could have been the hardest thing I have ever done as a parent. However, as my niece went to MARC before having to enroll her, it was the easiest.
Enrolling Uma at MARC when she was just 9 months was one of the best decisions I have made as a parent. Now she is 3 years old and every morning I drop her I know there's no place she'd rather be.
That has to say something about not only the quality of education and values she has received but also how confident I am in their ability to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the most important person in my life.
I can’t say enough good things about MARC and their teachers. We are forever grateful for what they do.
