A welcoming place for all

Nestled in a peaceful neighbourhood in Paraparaumu, Educare Kāpiti is more than just an early childhood centre; it’s a haven where tamariki feel safe, loved, and free to explore their world. We know commuting can be a challenge for whānau (families), and being close to a local school and train station helps ease that burden while allowing you to avoid heavy traffic.

Our dedicated kaiako (teachers) strive to build genuine connections with both tamariki and their whānau, making it a priority to be present and responsive to your needs.

A space for discovery

When you step into Educare Kāpiti, you’ll feel the warmth of our community. Tamariki are supported to play with confidence, independence and curiosity. Each day flows at a gentle pace, where children can follow their interests and take quiet moments as they need them.

Our outdoor space is truly special, featuring vegetable gardens, fruit trees, and natural areas that encourage tamariki to dig, pick, and enjoy the wonders of nature. Whether it’s the soft grass or the shade of our maple trees, our outdoor childcare area is a beloved spot for all.

Personalised learning journeys

At Educare Kāpiti, we understand each child is unique, and our passionate team of kaiako is dedicated to nurturing that individuality. We believe it’s important for tamariki to feel known and supported as they learn through play and curiosity, key elements of their early childhood education journey.

In our infant and toddler space, we create a calm and responsive environment that fosters strong attachments and gentle routines tailored to each pēpi (baby). We want whānau to feel connected to their child’s learning journey through thoughtful teaching, meaningful learning stories, and assessments that reflect progress and celebrate each achievement.

We are committed to embracing and promoting meaningful bicultural practices to enrich the experiences of all tamariki and their families.
