Learning Made Fun

With a focus on play-based education, we understand that children learn best when they are having fun.

Where Curiosity Meets Creativity

Nurturing Young Hearts and Minds

What we offer

At Trend Tots, we believe that the most meaningful learning happens through play, when children are joyful, curious, and free to explore the world around them.

Guided by our core values of Education, Fun, Wellbeing, Whānau, and Culture, we create a warm and inclusive environment where every child feels supported, connected, and inspired to grow.

  • Home-Based Early Learning

    At Trend Tots, we believe that the best early learning happens in environments that feel safe, warm, and familiar—just like home. Our home-based educators provide nurturing care and engaging learning experiences tailored to each child’s interests and stage of development.

    Children explore a rich variety of play-based activities designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and support all areas of growth. While the ideal setting for early development is often at home with parents, we understand that today’s family dynamics often require both parents to work.

    That’s why Trend Tots offers a natural, home-based childcare solution—one that blends the comfort of home with the benefits of high-quality early education. In this personalised setting, children receive the focused attention, responsive care, and strong relationships they need to thrive.

  • Small Groups of Children

    At Trend Tots, we believe that small groups make a big difference. That’s why our educators care for no more than four children at a time—ensuring each child receives focused, individualised attention in a calm and supportive environment.

    This low child-to-educator ratio creates the space for deeper relationships, responsive caregiving, and truly personalised learning experiences. Children feel seen, heard, and valued—key foundations for confidence, security, and healthy development.

    Smaller groups also mean less exposure to illness and more consistency in daily routines. With fewer children to care for, our educators can tune into each child’s unique interests, needs, and milestones—nurturing their growth at a pace that suits them best.

Why Choose Us

At Trend Tots, we are committed to offering more than just childcare—we provide a warm, enriching environment where every child feels valued, supported, and inspired to thrive.

Our boutique approach blends personalised care with meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that nurture curiosity, spark creativity, and foster a lifelong love of learning.

Here’s what makes Trend Tots truly special:

Our boutique centre ensures your child is never just a number. With smaller group sizes, our educators can truly get to know each child—their interests, strengths, and unique way of learning. This allows us to provide tailored support and experiences that help each child grow with confidence and joy.

Our passionate teaching team is made up of fully qualified, experienced professionals who genuinely love what they do. They build strong, trusting relationships with each child, creating a safe and emotionally supportive environment that encourages curiosity, resilience, and positive self-esteem.

At Trend Tots, play is not just fun—it’s foundational. Our curriculum is built around hands-on, inquiry-based learning that promotes problem-solving, creativity, collaboration, and a natural love of discovery. Children are free to follow their interests while building essential skills for life.

We believe the world is a rich classroom. Our regular excursions to parks, libraries, museums, and cultural centres give children meaningful opportunities to connect with the wider community, learn through real-life experiences, and build a sense of belonging and awareness of the world around them.

At Trend Tots, we are committed to inclusivity and providing tailored support for children with learning difficulties. Our experienced educators create individualized strategies to ensure every child has access to the tools and resources they need to succeed. We focus on building confidence and helping each child reach their full potential.

We see families as essential partners in each child’s learning journey. Through open, respectful communication and genuine collaboration, we work together to ensure consistency, trust, and shared goals. From daily updates to family events, we keep you involved and informed every step of the way.

Our indoor and outdoor spaces are carefully designed to encourage exploration, calm, and connection with nature. Children engage with natural materials, sensory-rich setups, and open-ended resources that inspire wonder, imagination, and environmental awareness.

As children prepare for the transition to school, we focus on developing the foundational skills they need to thrive. From early literacy and numeracy to independence, emotional regulation, and social confidence—our holistic approach ensures your child is ready for the next big step.
