Magic Garden Early Education Centre 174 Carlisle Road, Northcross, Auckland 0632

"Thank you Magic Garden for providing exceptional care for our son. The teachers here are all amazing, professional and super passionate about their work. The facilities are also superb with lots of great and age appropriate activities for the kids. The meals provided are also fantastic might I add. We are sad to go, and know our son will surely miss his time here. Thank you to all the staff from the bottom of our hearts."

"Magic Garden is a fabulous Centre with caring qualified staff and a one of the loveliest environments with so many activities to engaged and inspired the children’s learning. The children are always happy and actively participating when I visit."

"Both of my children have attended Magic Garden, and over the last 8 years we have had the most wonderful experience. Everyone in the centre is warm and welcoming and we feel part of a family. The teachers are fantastic and provide loving and thoughtful care in all three rooms. I would strongly recommend Magic Garden to anyone thinking of a childcare centre. We feel very sad to be saying goodbye."

"If you know someone in this area with a toddler, the chances are you've already heard of Magic Garden - it's a bit of a legend and deservedly so. There's a huge waiting list, which tells you all you need to know, but just in case you're still debating whether or not to join that list here's why it's awesome: 1) The staff are smart, experienced, creative and seem to be really energized by their work. 2) The kids LOVE IT. Our girl attended for over three years and she ran up that ramp every time, eager to say hello to the teachers and find out what was happening that day. 3) Kids actually get educated here and develop communication, resilience, responsibility and other early life skills in a way that's fun and engaging. We still meet up with other parents and we've all noticed that kids leaving Magic Garden are well equipped for primary school, the experience of schooling is already familiar to them so they can concentrate on making new friends instead. 4) The teachers have real empathy for the kids and also the parents, recognizing that sometimes parents appreciate a chat and sometimes they just have to drop their kids and go. 5) The Magic Garden environment is really...errr...magical, with lots of little nooks and spaces, each one offering opportunities to spark the kid's imaginations or a secluded space to have that important conversation about Lego. 6) There's a big emphasis in playing and learning outside whenever possible. Each part of the centre has age-appropriate stuff for the kids to do outside. If you're a new parent you've got loads of choices to make, hopefully this review takes some stress out of one of those choices."

"I have to say we love Magic Garden! The staff are all so friendly and they really do care about your kids. I love that they are also there for you as parents and want you and your children to have the best possible experience. If you are looking for a caring, supportive and amazing experience for your kids Magic Garden must be looked at."
