I have nothing but great things to say about Hand and Hand. My daughter absolutely loves going to school in the morning, she has never once cried when I drop her off. If anything she wakes up everyday excited to go to school. When I drop her off she is greeted with such love and kindness! Great work guys, you are all real life angels!

Our son went here for over a year and I can't say enough about how great they are! They treated him as one of their own and they definitely take the time to get to know every member of the family. It's very affordable and they have amazing activities for the kiddos!

Excellent!!! Took care of my child since he was fifteen months old. I left my child every day confident that my child was being loved and treated like part of the family. From researching other day care, I know that this day care goes above and beyond. Every aspect is specifically designed to engage and care for a child. Extremely clean and colorful. There are dedicated areas for reading, crafting, playing, eating, sleeping. Full of books, art supplies, toys, activities, inside and outside play areas and more. The meals are freshly made daily, and delicious. I cannot recommend this day care enough!

Brilliant school. My son loves the teachers they are so involved in the kids progress give a daily report. The manager of the day care as well keeps updates us updated about the school and students. Celebrate all the days and culture. The daycare is very inclusive. Love the atmosphere for my child's early experience. Focus on child's skill and development. Kudos to the team of Hand and hand

Since my kids started at Hand and Hand Early Learning Centre, I have noticed how far my kids have come with there; speech, ability to recognise letters, counting, writing there names, etc. All the cares do an exceptional job, I've never had a drama. My kids are quiet shy and stand off, but the cares can seem to bring the best out in them.

I can’t say enough how much I love Hand and Hand. My daughter is in the infant room and my big son was in the preschool room one year ago. The staff in infant room has been supportive of the care she needs from day one and has communicated with me very well. My daughter loves her teacher, Yao, and she goes right to her when we get there. It’s wonderful to feel like my baby is being loved when I am away. My son leant quite a lot words and numbers, I am so happy to see his academic level compared with his primary mates. I do appreciate your warm service Hand and Hand.

Very satisfied with the service. Our kid looks forward everyday to go to hand and hand. Teachers are very caring, warm, loving and professional at same time. They teach them social, emotional and curriculum too.

Highly recommend anyone looking for childcare services in Flatbush.

I would like to recommend Hand and Hand to ALL parents in the Flat Bush Community. Please visit them and feel it yourself. Hand and Hand teachers are so caring and knowledgeable. During my daughter's transition visits, both my daughter and our family were well supported. The manager is very lovely and welcoming. My daughter loves her Hand and Hand teachers. With their help, she is very independent and confident. She particularly enjoys the daily "school readiness program" as she is passionate about letters and numbers. Hand and Hand has lots of other activities that benefit my daughter's holistic development.
Thanks heaps Hand and Hand team.

Kia Ora Hand and Hand whanau,
It was suggested to me to share how I was feeling about X'n being so happy in his kindy.
For those that have heard our story and know X'nyx attended another kindy before Hand and Hand,
you'll get this. If you haven't, for a little context and only one of the many issues I had in the end, I figured
out X'n was being physically bullied daily and had been left to fend for himself. I would find bites and
marks on his body and always asked what happened and was never given any incident report, instead, I
was given excuses like 'rough play builds resilience and 'boys will be boys.
At times I was made to feel like I was babying my child but I couldn't shake the feeling that something
was wrong and the massive decline in X'ns mood and behavior indicated that something certainly wasn't
right. After a discussion with our Family G.P, I finally trusted that feeling, pulled him out, and after months
of healing X'n finally agreed that he was ready to find some new friends (kindy). I'll admit after everything
my little mate had endured, I'm sure you'll understand when I say, the bar was set pretty high.
You guys, the staff at Hand and Hand, you all have seriously not only met all of my expectations but
honestly, you've exceeded them. I have felt so safe leaving my son in your care. The professionalism
there is next level but what makes it outstanding for me personally is that it's all complemented with
caring and down-to-earth people. Every staff member I have shared our story with has shown
compassion. You've helped me navigate understanding some of the behaviors X'n has developed and a
step further, given me sound advice and ideas to try when coping with them. For the first time, I can get
him to sleep without him getting upset!
The staff has all made an effort to connect with X'n in a way that makes him feel comfortable. I witnessed
the moments where he wouldn't speak back and was moved when the teacher didn't push him or try and
force him to make eye contact but rather came back a few minutes later and tried again and again until
he very quietly spoke back. X'n had built little walls around him to keep himself safe and to see how
much consideration was taken when they gently pulled them back to connect with him meant so much to
me.
In the short time X'ns been there, he struggled with speaking up for himself and now can share when he
doesn't like something. When we arrive he is happy to run off and play not even bothered about me
leaving and has learned to sit with his friends during mat time and even started including himself in the
conversations. On every pick-up, without fail, I get updated on how his day was, what he ate, and all the
juicy fun stuff he enjoyed doing. These are gigantic steps forward for him and I believe wholeheartedly it
all comes down to the caring wairua, professionalism, and caliber of the staff that works there.
Honestly, you guys all should be super proud of the facility you run. Whoever chose the educators, you
should be chuffed in your choices, you quite literally have the best. Hand and Hand is by far the best
kindy I've come across and for my child specifically and that's coming from a parent with 6 kids who has
seen a few ECE centers. I could not be happier with my choice of center and who I now trust to educate
my bright, empathic, and much happier, human. You guys are giving my son the very best start he could
have and that means the world to me!
Thank you so much for all that you do!
Have a great week guys!
Trish.

Very happy with the service and it's sad to let go of such good environment that Amyra enjoys with you guys. Couldn't expect anything more.

Thank you so much :)
