Day Care in Hamilton

Wanting day care that is clean and tidy? A child-led approach? Manners? Respect? Education? A preschool that values independence? When your child attends our Montessori, you can expect a warm, nurturing and peaceful, mixed age environment that fosters a love of learning. Encouraging these skills helps your child to become a responsible member of their community. You can find us on Brooklyn Road in Claudelands, and also near the hospital on Tawa St with long hours to suit working families.

Along with Te Whariki (The New Zealand Early Childhood Curriculum), The Reggio Emilia approach shapes our philosophy. We are active in establishing and maintaining solid relationships with the children, their whanau and the local Hamilton community. At Busy Bees Hamilton East, full-time and part-time enrolment options are available to suit the differing needs of whanau. Book a tour to visit our Hamilton daycare centre today.

At Avalon Childcare, we value respectful practice and align our values and teaching alongside Emmi Pikler and Madga Gerber. We respect the children in all aspects of their being, and learning, providing them with resources that will stimulate their imagination, and thirst for discovering themselves with all their senses. We strive for the children to be independent, focused, and caring towards others, themselves, and the environment. The following quote from Magda Gerber reflects our centre. "Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write, or count. It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child. Earlier is not better".
