Our daily rhythm follows your child’s lead, with time for play, group activities, meal times and rest if needed. Our 'room of rest' also has beautiful high quality eco linens provided for each child. We also support children with their toileting needs in a respectful way.

We enjoy regular walks to the local park, events, celebrations & spending time with whānau in the Teina room. We also have a van pick up (from 7.45am) and drop of service for your convenience..

We are guided by our termly focus ,which is underpinned by the interests of the group and individual learning goals.

Our Teina Room is designed totmeet the learning and developmental needs of our youngest tamariki. The indoor and outdoor space has well-appointed viewing angles to ensure the care and safety of each child whilst in play.

Our teaching team have been carefully selected due to their devotion for providing specialised care for the ever changing needs of our youngest tamariki. Respectful interactions and open communication between the child, teacher and whānau is of utmost importance.

We believe that nutrition is the foundation of a healthy, happy child. We provide nutrient dense, whole-food meals that are prepared lovingly in the our kitchen by our passionate cook. The meals are prepared using local-where-possible produce, including seasonal fruits, vegetables and whole foods. We can cater to any dietary needs your child may have.

Kia Ora, my name is Anita and I have been working in the Early Childhood sector since 2010 and I have just recently completed my Bachelor of Teaching (ECE). I have experience with all age groups but am very passionate about babies.

I believe that all tamariki need the time and space to learn and develop at their own pace and I am eager to support them towards their learning journey.

Kia Ora , I am Mohanan Koodathinkal Kunjappan living in Napier currently working as a fully Registered Teacher at Rockmybaby Napier Centre.

I started my teaching career 40 years before and continued as an inspiring teacher to children across all ages and stages of learning from university to early childhood!

I graduated from New Zealand Tertiary College Auckland in Early Childhood Education along with Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Education from other universities in India.

I have my wife and two children- a boy and a girl living in New Zealand with their own families formed. I always love to teach and learn new knowledge along with traditional knowledge. Also interested in Maori language.

I am Clare Vette, wife to David and mother to 3 boys - Tyler, Levi and Finlay.  I love gardening and getting out in nature, being active and enjoying the adventures Hawkes Bay has to offer.  We have 2 dogs who enjoy walks and visiting the beaches, though one is getting older and can’t handle the energy of the other!

I have lived and worked here in Napier for my whole teaching career, having graduated in 2008 with my Diploma in ECE I have worked in a diverse range of environments and developed a clear philosophy that has relationships at the heart of everything.  I  love seeing natural play and learning unfold, and supporting our young learners to be social, expressive and confident, and always to have fun along the learning journey.

I look forward to getting to know everyone and settling into this wonderful new space.

Me mahi tahi tatou mo te oranga o te katoa

We should work together for the well being of everyone.

Coming soon…
