Buckle My Shoe Early Learning Centre

Even though Buckle My Shoe is the only daycare centre we have been apart of, I can not imagine there would be a better one out there.Our daughter (now 3) has been at Buckle My Shoe since 8 months old and there has never been a day she has not wanted to go.The staff are all unbelievable. Caring, professional and so supportive of not only our daughter and her progress, but the entire Buckle My Shoe community. It really does feel like one big happy family.We have 6 month old twin boys and they will 110% be a part of the Buckle My Shoe whanau.Can not recommend them enough

I could never ask for a better centre for my daughter! I am very happy with every single person working at Buckle My Shoe. They are always friendly and helpful. Since I decided to choose Buckle My Shoe for my daughter,when I was abroad, their service was excellent. I am amazed with how involved they are with the kids developments. They treat every child to feel important.They truly are amazing!

Due to a previous centre not meeting our expectations we found ourselves looking for a new centre for our daughter.Upon our visit to Buckle my shoe we found that they ticked all the boxes, welcoming staff, location, easy access, on site parking, security gates, an amazing outdoor area as well as a spacious indoor space.Our daughter has autism and I couldn't recommend enough how patient, caring and accommodating all staff on site are. They have all gone the extra mile to assist her needs, making her feel welcome and most importantly inclusive. They have done an amazing job to bring our daughter from solitary play and interaction to peer play and being amongst song and dance.They have an abundance of resources and activities to cater for every child's needs and interest and letting each child express themselves through creative art or dress up imagery play and even group baking.They keep us up to date on our daughters progress and development through conversations at pick up and drop off as well as regular updates on Storypark.We couldn't be more happier getting our daughter into Buckle my shoe.

Our 2year old joined Buckle my Shoe in Oct 2019. Before he officially started he had many visits which was awesome. We really wanted to prepare our wee man, especially knowing his personality. He needed gradual exposure to help him feel comfortable in a new environment. He has since absolutely thrived & really enjoyed daycare which has been amazing! Being a smaller centre is an absolute bonus. The staff are so mindful of the children’s needs which is so important & helps as parents to know they are so well looked after. We couldn’t recommend more highly Buckle my Shoe, they have become like family it’s so lovely! Plus working at the hospital it’s literally a 2min drive making it so easy!

Shreena is a lovely manager and owner. Staff are lovely and very caring with kids. We have enjoyed the experience we have had with our daughter being here. She comes home singing and dancing and always has smiles on her face going in to daycare every day. It’s been very welcoming and such a personalised experience being here. We have made great relationships here and transitioning our daughter was much easier knowing she is in great, diligent and caring hands.

Sending our son to Buckle my Shoe was the best decision ever! He, and we, love it there. The staff are amazing, so caring, fun, creative and engaged with our boy. The centre is small, clean and full of opportunities for indoor and outdoor play and learning, water play and messy play! Can’t recommend BMS highly enough. Thanks team for having us part of the crew.

Buckle my shoe has been the best decision to send my daughter too, we love the small centre. My daughter absolutely loves the staff & children, the excitement on her face when she gets out of the car every morning says it all. The team are sooo friendly, caring & supportive. As from day dot both team & parents have been so welcoming, my daughter gets sooo much attention it’s like our extended family. We would highly recommend buckle my shoes.
