About Hand and Hand - Childcare Centre

Hand and Hand is an early learning centre at 30 Manchester Drive in Flat Bush, Auckland, for babies, toddlers and preschool children. It describes its building as modern and purpose-built, with equipment and resources chosen to spark exploration. The outdoor playgrounds have age-appropriate challenges for each stage of development, along with space for children to play as they choose.

Its learning programme follows Te Whāriki, the New Zealand early childhood curriculum, and is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, with activities built around each child's interests. Teachers attend regular professional development. Parents who have written reviews say the staff are warm and attentive, that there is a good mix of structured activities and free play, and that there are sensory play stations and hands-on materials. They also praise the regular updates and progress reports sent home.
