Nau Mai,
At Kindercare Lower Hutt, we believe that because each child is unique in their strengths, interests, and needs, our approach to their care, learning, and teaching should reflect this. You’ll find exactly that when you visit our centre.
Our centre provides a calm, warm, homely, and inclusive atmosphere where tamariki can develop secure attachments, participate freely, and take risks in their learning. Our whānau tell us that it’s the safe, nurturing environment that evokes a ‘good feeling’. That matters to us, and we’re confident you’ll feel the same. Our responsive relationships and culturally rich environments are designed to facilitate meaningful learning, embrace diversity, and minimise barriers to participation while respecting the cultural heritage of Aotearoa.
Our team consider it a privilege to be part of the early years of a child’s life and an absolute delight to work alongside tamariki as they learn, grow, and thrive. So, if you’re looking for something that’s just a little different and offers just a little more for your baby, toddler, or preschooler, why don’t you come and see us?
Our team would love to meet you, spend some time with you, and show you around our beautiful centre. You’ll soon discover that it has been lovingly and thoughtfully created for tamariki.
Arohanui,
The team at Kindercare Lower Hutt -
Why Choose Our Centre
Values-led culture
We pride ourselves in values such as whānau, honesty, respect, kindness, love, caring for others, fun, empathy and integrity. These are foundational values to the mahi that we do in developing each child’s full potential in partnership with parents.

Because we’re big on catering to a child’s individual needs, you’ll find this especially notable in our room for children under two years old. We have personalised routines for each child, tailored to their growing needs using our Head, Heart Hands approach.
Generous annual leave
Our Annual Leave Policy eases the pressure on families during those times when your child is sick, or away from the centre on holiday.
Experienced teaching team
We have a high ratio of qualified Kaiako, all of whom are rich in experience and diverse in skills.

About Our Care
“It’s hard to put into words how grateful we are for the care you’ve given our child. Watching him grow into the confident, curious little boy he is today has been so special, and we know you’ve played a big part in that. You’ve encouraged his confidence, helped him build great friendships, and nurtured his love of learning (especially maths!).
There are so many little moments that made our experience special too, the reassurance when some earlier drop-offs were tough, the amazing flexibility of squeezing him in when we needed it, and the genuine care and affection everyone has always shown him. Knowing that he is somewhere he was safe, happy and loved made such a difference… you’ve set the bar incredibly high. Thank you for helping him become the little person he is today. We couldn’t have asked for a better start to his learning journey, and we’ll always be grateful.”
– Ali and SamSince 2007, we have been an integral part of the community, offering a dynamic and engaging learning program that fosters innovative thinking, discovery, and curiosity. Our convenient location on Connolly Street is just minutes away from public transport, making it ideal for parents with daily commutes.
Furthermore, one of the benefits of our centre is our culturally diverse team. If English is not your child’s first language, among our team, Kaiako speak multiple languages, which we believe allows us to facilitate a smooth transition into our daycare centre.
So we welcome you to visit us if you’re looking for childcare options to suit your family. Experience the Kindercare difference; we know you and your child will love it here!
