Testimonials

Exceptional! The staff provide excellent care, support, and endless fun experiences. My daughter started at 6mths old and I credit these teachers as part of the village that helps to raise her! Active Explorers Hokitika are incredibly invested in the positive growth of every child. If you are looking for childcare on the West Coast go in and meet Caitlin and the dedicated team, you're sure to be impressed!

All the staff at Active Explorers Nelson Street have created wonderful memories for our children. They have nurtured, inspired and created a safe space for all children to take risks in their learning and development. The teachers are committed to building relationships with the children and their families. Thank you for everything you have done for us and our family. 

We are grateful for all that Active Explorers Nelson Street has done to support our children and our family. Staff go above and beyond to care for and learn alongside all tamariki where play and learning is engaging. Our children have developed life-long attributes such as confidence, creativity, independence and to be inquisitive problem-solvers. It is such a positive community to be a part of and we are thankful for their commitment and efforts

Our experience with Active Explorers over the past 4 years has been nothing short of amazing! The teachers are incredibly caring and nurturing, creating a warm and supportive environment for both of our little ones. My children have thrived in their care, as it is such a safe and stimulating space for exploration and learning. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of preschool! Thanks AE team

The centre and all the staff are like family to our kids. Everyone genuinely cares about the children, putting their best interests at heart. The staff are there for the families too when they need some support, which I've really appreciated. The centre is full of colour, children having fun and is an inviting place to explore, which I’m really proud of. We’d be lost without the centre and the team! 

Thank you again for creating such a fantastic environment for our tamariki. Ou child absolutely loves coming to Active Explorers, and we are constantly surprised with the new skills, songs and sayings which she comes home with. We are so grateful for all of the incredible kaiako at the centre who foster our little lady’s learning, and growth into a kind, caring and helpful member of the community. 

On behalf of myself and Robbie, I’d like to extend our heartfelt appreciation for being very accommodating and for all the help you and the rest of the teachers have extended to our wee family.

 Active Explorers Airport has done an amazing job looking after my kids while I’m at work. They go on many outings and do a lot of arts and crafts and dress up days which is a fantastic educational opportunity for my kids. Regular photos of my kids are posted on the app Storypark so I get to see a few candid moments. I am grateful that I don’t need to worry after dropping them off in the morning

Choosing a daycare for our little one was very stressful, but choosing Active Explorers Airport was the best decision we made for our 4 months old daughter. She started attending 2 weeks ago and since then she has truly grown so much being a part of such a loving and caring team. The Little Kiwi teachers have been wonderful not only at caring for Marley, but also at supporting us as we go through this big transition. We are so lucky to have them in our life and to be able to leave our daughter in such capable and loving hands on a daily basis. We highly recommend Active Explorers Airport to any parents looking for the perfect safe place for their children.

For a first time mum I was so nervous about putting my little boy into full time care at only 5 months old, the ladies in the little kiwis room were amazing really put my mind at ease from day one and enabled me to return to work relaxed that he was in great hands. They are so friendly and know days when he needs a few more cuddles. The ladies helped me so much with tips and tricks for sleeping and feeding, teething etc and I luv hearing what the lil guy has been up to when I pick him up in the arvo, such a great team! Thank you so much.
