The Nest is a purpose-built space designed to nurture the needs of tamariki from 3 months up to 3 and half years. Our Nest kaiako are qualified to recognise and meet the special learning and care requirements of our youngest children, in a safe and welcoming environment.
The Nest is run with optimum teacher to child ratios to ensure your little one always has an adult to help. All our equipment is designed to be safe and stimulating for children under 3 years and we have dedicated sleep areas and sleep times to create a calm and comfortable environment for your child to nap. We sit together for meals to support healthy eating habits, social skills and a sense of community.
We set aside long blocks of time for tamariki to fully engage in the activities of their choice, allowing them to enjoy deeper, richer and more powerful learning through play. We read the children’s cues to tell us when it’s time for refueling, or quiet time, so don't be surprised if you walk in and our rhythm doesn't look exactly like this.
What to pack in your child's bag
Each day your child will need to arrive with:
- Food for morning kai, lunch and afternoon kai in a lunch box
- Change of clothes, we love to get messy and wet while we learn!
- Nappies (for those not toilet-trained)
