Our Centre

Our passionate and loyal staff take pride in creating an environment that is a home away from home.

Watch our video to take a tour:

Since 1971 Greenlane Childcare Centre has provided a home away from home, where children can learn, be loved and have fun. We are licensed for 48 children aged 3 months to 5 years old.

Our Centre is located in the heart of Greenlane, between Great South Road and Cornwall Park, which we visit often!

Set in a leafy residential street we are near great transport links – the train station, major bus routes, and the motorway.

Nurture the seed and it will blossom

Our kaiako (teachers) believe in creating an enriching environment where children are encouraged to develop confidence in themselves and their play, and to have perceptions of themselves as explorers who research, enquire and experiment with the world around them. As kaiako we believe in noticing an individual child’s interests and responding to these in meaningful ways.

Under Twos

We have created a space where our youngest can explore, be curious and problem solve in a natural environment.

We have low teacher to child ratios that ensures we have meaningful relationships with all our children. We value children’s individual needs and whanau aspirations; this is included into our routines and curriculum.

Our focus is for all children to feel loved, have their physical and emotional needs met and to learn through play and exploration. Our aim for this room is for it to be an extension of your home, where your children can learn and grow alongside each other, and we can work in partnership with you to provide the best learning outcomes for your children.
