Welcome to Kidicorp, NZ's largest private provider of top quality childcare, Montessori, baby care, pre-school and kindergarten services.

We operate well-known brands like Edukids, Kids to Five, First Steps, Montessori, Community Kindergartens, Early Years and Top Kids.

We are committed to the '3 P's' of quality pre-school: people ( qualified teachers and competent caring staff) programme (extending children's learning, letting children work in different parts of the centre doing what they enjoy, purposeful play and an over-arching learning model "Te Whaariki the early childhood curricula) , and place (quiet areas, exciting outdoor fun, child appropriate environments).

As one of our parents said, "It's great to go back to work and know my children are in safe hands, having fun and learning".

At our child care centres you will find people who enjoy working with children. You will find happy children involved in their activities and expertly guided by our qualified teachers.

What all our daycare centres have in common is a nurturing attitude and commitment to ensuring each child is cared for and supported in a warm, friendly and positive environment. We have excellent qualified teacher to children ratios, quality equipment and toys and impressive learning environments.

We work with children in age groupings because we feel this is best for learning. Our centres have clear goals for each age group so that appropriate learning programmes are planned based on early childhood theory and practice.

We are very proud of our quality environments and stable teaching teams. This means children bond with teachers, bonding has been shown to be critical to the well-being and development of children in all age-groups under five. It is a critical quality indicator if you need childcare for your baby. Our teachers know about baby brain development and how to stimulate children and develop their learning potential.
