Kids Cave Early Learning - Te Rapa

100% would not recommend. I only had my child enrolled for a short period of time. My beautiful outgoing daughter that wanted to be friends with any kid quickly turned into a sheltered shy girl that would curl into me at the site of another kid. I was paying for this place to care for my girl while I worked yet was getting phone calls to pick her up in an hour of starting my shift. Frequently I would go in and find 1-2 teachers (if lucky) for 13 + kids. One day a little girl was even screaming at the door and a teacher no where in sight. With diligence as I am not qualified in ece I got down to this girl's level and gave her some comfort and took her to a teacher that I had to go find! In short, I paid for care despite having to take unpaid leave from work to care for my own child. My child was not happy at all. Not enough teachers to actually look after your child. After a discussion with the directors I was left with sorry you feel that way". If you really care about your childs wellbeing when your not around - do not send here."

Our son has been here a year now and loves it. He is so well looked after by Hayley, Mia and all of the wonderful staff. He is always happy and has progressed so much by being here. He is fully toilet trained and his speech is amazing for a 2year old.I love that he has very healthy and nutritious meals provided everyday. He’s also loved helping in the making of food for special occasions.They have beautiful spacious rooms and fabulous outdoor area.He looks forward to going everyday. And we get a full report of what he has been up to when we collect him in the afternoon.I would definitely recommend Kids Cave.

We've been involved with this centre since 2015 and we've never had any trouble. My son was adored and cared for and now my daughter is getting the exact same support. The teachers always make sure we know what's happening with our kids and share lots of funny stories. Most importantly, my kids are always having loads of fun when I pick them up! The hours are great, the price is fantastic, and I'm jealous of the yummy nutritious food my kids get there! After being with Kids Cave, my son easily transitioned to school with confidence. Thank you Kids Cave for helping me raise my family xx

My son has been enrolled here for about 1 month now and he is soo happy and genuinely loves it here, The teachers are very caring and they are willing to reinforce our parenting techniques.

My son has been here for a few weeks and loves it. The team are friendly and my bub loves being dropped off with them. They support our home routines which makes the transition from home to kindy much easier

My daughter loves attending The Kids Cave. She has great bonds with all the teachers. The centre is always doing fun & interactive activities with the children. I know she is safe & well looked after. Highly recommended

My two grandchildren attend this child care centre. They are happy, engaged with the teachers and love going there every day. I love going to pick them or just dropping in to read them some stories. Being with them in this environment shows me how much they enjoy being there. thank you

I have 2 boys aged 2 and 4 at this centre. I have experienced the teachers communicating with me on how they are supporting my sons social skills on being ready for school. I like how they have so many opportunities where they practice caring for eachother and acknowledging each others feelings. Which my family feel is a big value to have in life. The homely meals are great to have and I know they are being well fed there. There is good outdoor areas in all the rooms with real grass!! And vege gardens where I see the children have been learning how to look after them!
