Bear Park Early Childcare Centre in Remuera is a purpose-built centre at 13/15 Dilworth Avenue, Remuera, Auckland. Its design is built around transparency, with glass walls, doors and windows so that children's learning can be seen by parents, teachers and other children. The centre has spacious outdoor areas, a central piazza that serves as its hub, a performing arts room and art ateliers for dance, drama, music and art. Parents have dedicated spaces to sit and talk with teachers. The building uses wood, natural and recycled materials and reflects the centre's bi-cultural heritage.
The programme draws on Reggio Emilia, the RIE approach developed by Dr Emmi Pikler, and Te Whāriki. Its Buddy System links children, parents and teachers. The centre has its own beehive and composting system, and children visit the nearby Ōhinerau (Mount Hobson) regularly. Parents quoted on the website praise the clear communication, the regular updates on their child's day, the support during transition to the centre, and the caring teachers.
