Little Seed Early Learning Centre 42 Reelick Avenue, Pakuranga, Auckland 2010

"It really feels like you are dropping the kids off to a trusted family member. I love the nature based mission here. I sent my triplet boys to this daycare, and I was so very glad I did. The teachers are a wonderful asset. Saved money on nappies AND the food is delicious. Highly recommend."

"Our daughter, has attended Little seed for just over a year now and absolutely loves it! I went to quote a few centres before choosing this one, Eco friendly, Nutritious home made meals, reusable nappies provided, herb gardens & fruit trees, and a great teacher to child ratio. We know our daughter is thriving here, and we would highly recommend."

"Fantastic high quality daycare with lovely caring teachers and a great ratio of teachers to kids. They serve up nutritious delicious food and their focus on sustainability is wonderful. Highly recommend"

"We couldn't have been happier with our experience at Little Seed and feel so grateful that this was our daughter's first experience of daycare. When we moved abroad we were gutted to have to leave Little Seed. Our daughter started at 8 months and with the love, support and guidance of all the staff she developed multiple skills quickly; she became confident in socialising, playing, reading, and walking whilst she was there. We loved the fact that Little Seed take children's health seriously and they don't use any chemicals unnecessarily. The use of their own cloth nappies was a lifesaver and the food - lovingly prepared by Maria was amazing. We were always jealous of her lunch! We loved the environment. The bespoke wooden toys and games are all carefully chosen and there is a lot of thought and care into how children learn but whilst being environmentally careful. Our daughter used to jump up and down when we told her she was going to 'school' which made us taking her there everyday so much easier. She made beautiful friends and we were always treated like family. We were fully consulted in all decisions about her, no matter how small. Our daughter received only the very best care and genuine love and we are so grateful to you all. The staff are incredible... They always make time for you and adore all of the children they look after. You receive lots of communication about your child's day through the app and regular stories about their recent development. If you're considering sending your child to Little Seed, don't think twice. If you're lucky enough to get them there you won't regret it."

"We chose this childcare centre in part because we like that they have a focus on health and sustainability. They provide reusable nappies and home-made refined sugar-free meals, which takes a lot of stress out of getting ready in the morning. My son loves going to daycare, and it as lovely to see and hear about the activities the children enjoy every day through the Educare website. The staff are friendly and the communication with parents is excellent. Great teacher-to-child ratio means we know our baby is getting lots of cuddles and attention."
