So glad we chose Waiuku Learning Space for our baby to go to. From his first day at 10 months old he loved it. The teachers are all so awesome. We get daily updates (bottles, nap times, nappy changes) and photos every day of what they got up to. Their hours are so good considering we are full time working parents, and pricing is affordable too. I highly recommend Waiuku learning space for anyone looking for a daycare.

The best daycare in Waiuku! The owners and staff of waiuku learning space are super passionate and extra caring with our kids. The owners really work with the parents to provide a stress free financial and hours plan. They are super flexible and put families best interests first always! They treat every family as their own and I would hands down recommend them as the top daycare in Waiuku.

Our little guy loves going to ‘kindy’, which he goes to 2 days a week. I love the family feeling that the centre has. They made the transition process so easy when starting him there and then also moving to different a room when he turned a bit older. The teachers and owners are very easy to communicate with. Thanks for taking care of our little guy 💕

A great centre! The teachers are so friendly, kind, loving and care about all the children's development and learning! There are always lots of toys and room to run and play—a big outdoor area with real trees and grass for kids to explore. My daughter loves it here; She has a strong bond with her teachers. I wouldn't send my daughter anywhere else! Highly recommend the Waiuku learning space!

Couldn’t have found a better centre for my daughter. Such a warm, welcoming atmosphere and easy going place. Big outdoor area with lots to do. The teachers are amazing and so loving they treat all the children like family. Always fun activities, games, excitement every day. Our kids are so spoilt by WLS and I appreciate them for all they do. Highly recommend for all children from babies to preschool.

Thank you so much for having us at short notice this week. Jaylen seems to have really enjoyed himself this week and we are very pleased with how happy he has been coming home. We have noticed a considerable difference in his happiness. As first time parents it’s hard letting your baby go and returning to work but we are so happy to now be at WLS and be apart of this family through Jaylen’s development and learning. The teachers have been so lovely and welcoming and taken great care of Jaylen. I was so excited picking him up yesterday and getting to take home a piece of art he had made that day. It really made my whole week.
