Preschool

We are so happy to have joined the Learning Links Taupo whanau. My little one has never been the easiest at morning drop offs but at Learning Links she is always greeted by huge smiles and loving arms. I really appreciate the extra care taken to settle her in each morning and am always able to discuss her day in detail with her teachers at pick up. We love all the different areas for play and learning in the centre, especially the beautiful vege gardens outside!

We love our days at best start pioneer. All staff have great communication and a genuine care for the growth of the children.

Loving teachers who look after the children like their own. They always take the time to chat and regularly update online portfolio. Highly recommend!

Best childcare centre, my daughter learned alot from here. Thank you so much jennie and her team for your best efforts.

An amazing learning environment with brilliant teachers. My eldest loved it here, totally recommend!

Our son spent 2 wonderful years at this beautiful kindy, I highly recommend it. Beautiful surroundings for your tamariki to spend their day in. Child led rhythms in each day provide a calm environment for the children to thrive. (note 'child led' is not the children just doing whatever they want all day, rather the teachers will focus on the needs of the child within the activity at the time).Sending your child to a Steiner kindy is such a great way for them to start their love of learning.

Such a lovely place for the tamariki to attend. My daughter loves it and falls asleep telling me about her day, her wonderful carers and of course the peers she plays with. The kids all learn independence, fun and belonging here.

5 reasons why we chose Little Moa’s:1. They were the only day care that answered the phone when we were searching around. All others went to voicemail or requested to send an email. My immediate thought was that they were all understaffed and that if I wanted to know how my daughter was doing during the day, Little Moa’s would be the only one to reassure me.2. Since our first visit, there wasn’t one time we stepped in there that we weren’t made to feel special. All educators are warm and the ratio exceeds expectations. They have great ERO reviews too as I did my homework before enrolling.3. They have a great online system where they privately post photos and stories of our daughter. I’m a foreigner so for my family in Brazil to be able to see what she’s up to is just a great plus!4. They were the only day care in the neighbourhood that had a flexible rate for everyday part time. All the others had day rates only, doesn’t matter how many hours you keep your child in there.5. And finally, the strongest reason why we stuck with them: our daughter is 12 months and is now grabbing her jacket in the morning to run to the door because she just can’t wait to get to Little Moa’s and play with her friends. She’s always beaming with happiness when she’s there and this makes me so comfortable and secure.Thank you Little Moa’s for the outstanding service so far!

My baby has been in the learning tree for almost 4 months, she started at 10 months old. She is a sensitive girl so I was so worried about the transition from home to day care. But the teachers in little bunnies were so patient and gave her lots of attention and supports. She is happy to go there everyday now, and enjoyed the time playing with her friends outside. During festivals teachers would take photos for her and make special cards to take home, photos are always lovely. Good meals provided every day. I am happy that I made a good choice :)

My daughter had been going here since she was crawling and has just transitioned into school. Her new teacher is so overwhelmed by how advanced her Literacy and numbers. Not to mention sharing and being independent. If your looking for a loving whanau like environment and excellent educational experiences come to feathers. Stop looking this is your answer!
