At Caterpillar Kids, we believe every child is unique, capable, and full of potential. As Dr. Seuss reminds us, “A person’s a person no matter how small.”
This philosophy guides everything we do.

We are a close-knit, family-focused centre dedicated to creating warm, nurturing, and responsive relationships with children and their whānau. Our teaching team is made up of passionate, highly skilled professionals committed to supporting each child’s learning journey through meaningful, play-based experiences.

Every day, children thrive in environments designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and confidence. From our rich outdoor spaces to our engaging indoor learning areas, we encourage exploration, discovery, and imagination.

We embrace the values of Respect, Care, Discovery, and Joy, and these shine through in our daily practice. With home-cooked meals prepared fresh each day, a strong sense of belonging, and a focus on building trusting relationships, Caterpillar Kids is a place where children feel safe, supported, and inspired.

Proudly privately owned and operated, we are committed to fostering a community where children are empowered to be themselves, learn in their own way, and grow into confident, capable young learners
