Sugartree Lane Preschool Auckland CBD Values Kindness Creativity

Our values are at the heart of everything we do and shape the environment we create for our tamariki and whānau.

We believe in nurturing a space where children feel safe to express themselves, explore their ideas, and build meaningful connections.

Our Centre

Located in the heart of Auckland City, our childcare centre has two dedicated learning spaces: the Huhu Room, supporting infants through to 3-year-olds, and the Pūriri Room, designed for 3 to 5-year-olds preparing for school.

Each space follows a balanced daily rhythm of free play, group mat times, meals, and quiet reflection, with activities woven in to support social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. Find out more in our

Enrolment Process

We want every whānau to feel welcomed and supported. Our enrolment process is simple, warm, and designed around your tamariki’s needs.

1. Come and Visit
Parents can
book a time to visit our centre, meet our kaiako, and walk through the learning spaces. This is a chance to ask questions and see if our childcare in Auckland City feels right for your family.

2. Enrolment Form
If you’d like to join, the next step is filling out our
enrolment form. Our team will be there to guide you through the details.

3. Transition Period
Together, we set a start date for a gentle transition. Whānau are welcome to visit as many times as needed, staying alongside their child until they feel confident and settled.

4. Independent Days
When your tamariki is ready, they will begin staying by themselves, supported by our caring team.

We know choosing a daycare near you is an important decision. Our approach ensures that every child and their whānau feel a strong sense of belonging from the very beginning.
