Pokeno childcare is the best daycare from my experience with my daughter. Its an excellent place for kids to learn, grow, explore, make relationships and get ready for school.
Their teachers are really helpful, caring and supportive.  They help to build confidence among kids for school and work on each and every aspirations to help them grow and explore.
I love the activities organized by childcare to explore other cultures and languages.

I have two children at Pōkeno Child Care, a two year old who absolutely loves the daycare and a four year old who has developed in his confidence with the support from the teachers.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Pokeno Child Care. Choosing a daycare is never an easy decision, but the team at Pōkeno Child Care has made it clear that I made the right choice.

The staff is truly exceptional — attentive, nurturing, and highly engaged with every child. It’s evident that they genuinely love what they do. They take the time to get to know each child’s personality, needs, and milestones, and they create an environment where kids feel safe, loved, and excited to learn.

The daily activities are thoughtfully planned and developmentally appropriate, blending play with learning in a way that keeps the kids both entertained and stimulated.  I’ve seen noticeable growth in social skills, communication, and confidence since joining.

Communication with parents is also a standout feature. We receive regular updates, photos, and progress reports, which gives us peace of mind and makes us feel like true partners in our child’s development.

The facility is clean, organized, and filled with age-appropriate toys and learning materials. Safety is clearly a top priority, and it shows in every aspect of the center’s operation.

If you’re looking for a daycare where your child will be loved, supported, and given every opportunity to thrive, look no further than Pōkeno Child Care. I am beyond grateful

Amazing Childcare Centre with the friendliest staff! All teachers are incredible and create such a safe, welcoming environment. we felt completely at ease leaving our child in their care. My Son took some time to settle in, but staff went above and beyond to support him and help him adjust. You all truly feel like part of a family here. We’re so grateful for the love and dedication they show every day. The centre is always clean, tidy, and so welcoming.
