We couldn’t be happier with Whanau Day Nursery. The staff are incredibly caring, supportive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Our son has absolutely thrived here and is always so happy and confident at pick-up. The time, care, and attention the team gives him is fantastic, and we feel so lucky that he attends such a great nursery!
Katrina F.Couldn't be happier - the team are so lovely and do such a great job! Thank you 🙂
Jess C.Abbie and the team do such an amazing job running this nursery. My daughter started back in November and is so happy to go in each day. The building is much more spacious than many of the other nurseries we visited, and every week the team go above and beyond putting on themed learning and fun activities. I couldn't recommend it more! The only downside for us is the head office team who could definitely improve in communication however, keeping it 5 stars as the important part is the staff and experience in the nursery.
