About Our Care
The Kindercare Advantage comes to life at our centre through ou local curriculum priorities: relationships between tamariki, whānau and Kaiako, fostering and promoting social and emotional competency, and recognising and celebrating the strong cultural identity of each child. Childcare at our centre is thoughtfully designed to meet the aspirations of whānau and cater to the unique needs of each child. For infants and children aged up to to 2 years, we emphasise responsive care by integrating Head, Heart & Hands, fostering mindful caregiving and teaching. Our Kaiako develop personal, affectionate relationships with tamariki, creating a nurturing environment.
As children grow and transition through our centre, our Rangiora preschool ensures a seamless pathway to school and kura. We offer age-appropriate activities for toddlers, and preschoolers, with a strong focus on outdoor exploration, in line with our centre’s values. Our comprehensive curriculum supports social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development through initiatives such as You Can Do It!, Smart Steps, Digital Technology Integration (for children over three), and environmental care.
In partnership with whānau, we provide a supportive environment where children can thrive. Through careful observation of each child’s learning and interests, we gain valuable insights that help us design purposeful environments. Our holistic approach considers the social, emotional, physical, and cultural needs of children, guiding them throughout their journey at Kindercare Rangiora to become life-long learners.
We value open communication and are keen to understand your family’s childcare needs, along with any important details about your whānau. Our team is well-equipped to provide individualised care for children with diverse needs, working closely with you as their parents. By understanding your family, we can offer a tailored approach to your child’s care, learning, and fees, to support their growth.
