They are so lovely, caring and friendly. I feel at ease leaving my daughter in their care as I know she is well looked after. It has a really lovely feel to it as soon as you walk in, it's very family friendly and open so the teachers have full visibility of all of the children, all the time. It's a great learning environment and there are so many fun activities and things for your children to do. It also has an awesome outdoor area! But I think what really makes this a great preschool is the teachers, every single one of them has had a helping hand in settling my daughter as she transitions into her first preschool. They are always so positive and happy and really want the best for your child/children. I highly recommend Pukeko Preschool Mangere East to anyone looking for an excellent preschool for their children. ### null review (5/5) The staff are very lovely, open-hearted and happy bubbly people. It is very easy to communicate with them. They take so much pride in their job teaching our babies but mostly showing love to our tamariki's. You may judge it's look from the outside, thinking it's not a place for your child because it's not modern looking like other daycare centres, but i can definitely assure you it is just perfect as it is. Its safe, its fun for our kids and its just like you've never left home. What I love most about this preschool is that there are no judgements at all. If you are a parent who feels like your child may be judge for whatever reasons, Pukeko Preschool Mangere East is the place to be. As a mama who has an autistic boy, you could understand the feelings and anxiety when finding a daycare who would accept your child. But In saying this, I am happy with my decision in bringing him here to pukeko preschool, im also happy that my son is happy in this environment. ### null review (5/5) I love this daycare center ! From my sister, to my niece and now my daughter, each experience better than the last ! My daughter who is a very active, energetic and often times easily distracted child, is constantly learning new things and retaining so much information since starting here. They have a great daily routine that helps us keep her on schedule. Their indoor as well as outdoor setup is amazing, mostly handmade and crafted out of recycled goods. Last but not least the phenomenal teachers that make up this school ! They are incredibly welcoming, friendly and caring ! My daughter is safe, so loved and has absolutely flourished since being here ! I would highly recommend this location to anyone !
