Loved by Auckland families
★★★★★
It was such a natural and easy transition, it really felt like I was just dropping my children at their Auntie's house.
★★★★★
I was very happy with how well my child settled with her Kuddles educator. She enjoyed the one-on-one attention and the variety of learning resources, right through to preparing for school.
★★★★★
I cannot thank Kuddles enough for my child's educator who has been outstanding. A big thank you for the wonderful service and environments you provide.
Educators you can trust
Meet Robyn
Robyn is one of our much-loved educators and has been with Kuddles for over ten years. Based in rural Wellsford, she offers childcare in a wonderfully unique setting, where children help feed and care for animals on her property and can learn Te Reo Maori along the way.
Like all our home-based educators, Robyn is dedicated to giving children the very best care to help them grow.
