At BestStart, we're leaders in the early childhood sector, making a difference while loving what we do. We provide high-quality early education and award-winning childcare for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. BestStart Pioneer is seeking a passionate Caregiver to join our energetic and tight-knit team, focusing on providing quality education to the children in our community.
At BestStart Pioneer, every day is treated as a new opportunity to connect, grow, and build on the immense curiosity that creates a life-long love of learning. We understand the importance of strong, healthy relationships between whānau, children, teachers, and the community. We work alongside families to ensure the best care and early education possible for your child.
We embrace open communication and foster trust through regular updates on your child's development, creating a warm, welcoming learning environment. We believe that every child is unique, with something valuable to offer. We guide children in uncovering their unique strengths, and in turn, they're constantly teaching us.
You'll notice it the moment you walk in the door. While respecting the past, we've developed the traditional model of childcare into a more holistic approach, encompassing care, education, inspiration, and connection. It's a home away from home and a supportive community for you and your family.
