Little Magpies Childcare Centre 24 Leyland Street, Onekawa, Napier, Hawke's Bay 4110

Welcome to Little Magpies Childcare Centre, located at 24 Leyland Street in Napier, New Zealand. We are an establishment that focuses on providing a supportive and challenging environment for children, where their individual needs are acknowledged and recognized.

At Little Magpies, we believe in offering quality childcare to ensure that children develop all the skills they need for a successful start in life. We understand that childcare services are not just drop-off locations for working parents, but rather important places for children to engage in social and educational activities. These activities help them develop confidence, social skills, language abilities, communication skills, and school readiness.

Situated in Onekawa, Napier, we offer both Centre and Home Based Childcare, giving families the choice for their child's learning. We value learning and encourage children to explore nature, be creative, and have fun. Our dedicated educarers form safe and secure relationships with the children in their care, ensuring a consistent routine and nurturing environment.

We actively seek out the learning aspirations of whānau Māori (Māori families) and work in partnership with them to provide the best learning experiences for their tamariki (children). Our well-considered environment responds to the diverse interests and needs of children, and our kaiako (teachers) are supported to take on leadership roles and implement initiatives to improve outcomes for children.

Strategic and annual planning provide clear expectations and guidelines for quality teaching practice and curriculum delivery. We also have individual learning plans that support consistent and deliberate teaching strategies to progress children's learning. Infants and toddlers are well supported in a calm and nurturing environment, with a wide range of sensory experiences to promote curiosity and exploration.

We believe in fostering strong collaborative relationships between teachers, children, parents, and whānau to promote a sense of belonging. Our service philosophy and vision are highly evident in practice, ensuring that every child feels valued and supported.

Don't just take our word for it, here are some testimonials from satisfied parents: "Would highly recommend Little Magpies Childcare Centre. There's never-ending activities and wholesome meals.
