With an aim to provide affordable and high quality education in a safe, caring and homely environment to the children and families of the community, Little Hands childcare has started its operation at 20 Middlemore Crescent, Papatoetoe, next to the Middlemore Hospital.

Little Hands childcare is a nurturing, safe and educational childcare and early learning centre where the qualified, experienced and dedicated staff are committed to provide not only your kids a family environment, but also the families an opportunity to strengthen the bridge between their work and family life.

Children are encouraged to learn at their own pace in a challenging environment that allows them to explore, make new discoveries, grow, thrive and reach their full potential within the child centred programme following Te-Whaariki curriculum. The childcare further guides the children to become confident and capable citizens of the society and value their culture and individuality, thus contributing to in their holistic development.

Mr Manmohan Bhatia of the Little Hands Childcare says, “Our philosophy at Little Hands childcare and early learning centre is that we believe children learn through playing and this arises from their daily life experiences. We believe today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders and we see children as powerful, capable, confident and independent learners. As they say that a healthy mind lives in a healthy body. So we provide fresh cooked nutritional meals to the children at our childcare.”

A special programme—transition to school—is also run by the childcare that is designed to help children get ready for higher schooling.

Little hands childcare is offering free 30 hours’ sessions for three to five years old and other special offers are available for 0–3 year olds. The childcare has an open door policy and staff is available answer any queries that you may have anytime between 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday on 092799946 or contact Sunaina Bhatia 0211212735.
