Infants
We understand that infants need regular, gentle moments of care throughout the day. From the very moment your baby enters our care, we hold each milestone close to our hearts. Our team is committed to providing a nurturing environment that fosters strong connections, trust, and loving relationships.
Here’s what life at our centre might look like for your pēpi, or infant:
-
Kaiako working in partnership with whānau to support your child’s familiar rhythms and rituals at the centre, where possible. -
Our key teacher approach helps build trusted relationships, so your child feels safe, secure and supported throughout their day. -
Uninterrupted, unhurried moments for your child to explore and learn throughout their day. -
Plenty of sensory interactions with a rich blend of experiences to taste, touch, feel, and see, igniting curiosity and creativity. -
A care and learning environment centred around movement, recognising that all learning begins with movement. -
Everyday moments that celebrate relationships, connection, enthusiasm, and aroha.
Let’s cherish every moment of your baby’s care and learning journey together.
Frequently asked questions
We recommend gentle transition visits and a gradual settling-in approach.
Short visits that build familiarity and trust can make the first weeks easier for both babies and whānau. Your centre team will help plan visits that suit your baby and your family. These settling visits also include time spent with Kaiako who will become your child’s key Teacher to foster a rich attachment with your baby and you as a whānau unit.
