We are a New Zealand-owned charity with preschools, kindergarten (kindy), Montessori, and early-childhood home-based services nationwide.
BestStart has over 260 early childhood centers from Whangarei to Invercargill. All our centers use the New Zealand curriculum Te Whāriki, preparing children for their formal education at school. Our trained teachers support children to belong, thrive, and achieve through the world-recognized philosophy of learning through play.
Our commitment to every parent ensures every child is cared for and supported in a warm, friendly and positive environment. We have excellent staff-to-child ratios, with qualified and caring teachers, quality equipment, toys and a safe and attractive learning environment.
