“This centre has a truly special place in our lives. Our child eagerly looks forward to going each day, and has even asked us several times to enrol him for longer days because he loves his friends and teachers so much. The teacher-to-child ratio is excellent, and the children are encouraged to explore play in the ways that suit them best. Every teacher we’ve met has been exceptionally caring, friendly, and genuinely invested in my child’s growth. We’ve seen incredible development in our child’s confidence, vocabulary, EQ, and IQ since joining the centre. We couldn’t be happier, and we definitely recommend this daycare to any whānau looking for a nurturing and supportive environment.”

“As an international student, enrolling my 2-year-old son at Massey Daycare was one of the best decisions I’ve made. He quickly adjusted to the new environment thanks to the caring and loving teachers. I’ve noticed many positive changes in him since he started. The teachers genuinely care for each child and engage them in thoughtful, creative activities. It’s also a very safe and secure place. I highly recommend Massey Daycare to any parent looking for a supportive and nurturing environment for their child.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care our children receive at this centre. The staff are exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to each child’s wellbeing and development. Both of our kids absolutely love it here, and it’s easy to see why. The facilities are outstanding, with beautifully designed indoor spaces and a covered outdoor area that allows for year-round outdoor play, even in winter. The environment is safe, engaging, and clearly created with children’s needs in mind. Every teacher is caring, professional, and focused on helping each child thrive. We feel incredibly fortunate to be part of such a nurturing and supportive community.”
