Why Nurture? Our simple values speak for themselves - we are passionate about our children, people and our environment. These values underpin our teaching teams’ daily practice and curriculum delivery.

 
 
 
 

With centres in Avondale, Onehunga and Red Beach, our experienced team is more than happy to arrange a tour around our modern facilities. We pride ourselves on delivering quality results to those in our care, every time.

We value our children, we value our people.

When you enter a Nurture Early Learning Centre you will also feel the value that has been placed on providing our families with generous spaces to engage with and move within. At Nurture we strive to create meaningful learning spaces that our teachers are proud to take ownership of, and that our families will treat as a second home.

A Nurture Early Learning Centre offers several unique spaces which expand our children's environment during their time here. Our 10 years serving community families has highlighted to us the importance of offering these unique areas allowing smaller groups to come together for meals in the kitchen Cafe or special time in our upstairs learning space we call the Treetops. We value our Cafe as a place of life and relationships where we seek to make eating a positive experience, inspire kindness and nurture conscience. We celebrate it as a place to explore our various cultures and embrace togetherness.

“He kai kei aku ringaringa” (“I can eat my food with my own hands”). Here, we can offer our children opportunities for self-empowerment and support their development as competent and confident eaters. We believe that nutrition education happens through play and investigation by utilising each child's natural curiosity to explore, thus reconnecting them with the food we eat and how it gets to their plate. In our large Treetops space, children can engage in deeper learning opportunities and investigations, extend their creativity in the separate art atelier, or participate in our Moving Smart Program, or story yoga sessions. 

The Nurture outdoors space is designed to reflect nature and provide enough open-ended opportunities for our teachers to create different learning environments and physical challenges to keep our children inspired and engaged.

Moving Smart is an internationally recognised movement based program that uses movement to help develop school readiness in our children. Our Nurture teachers are trained and accredited teachers of the Moving Smart program.
