Home based childcare Wellington
Connecting tamariki, whānau and educators across Wellington
Here at Home Grown Kids Wellington, Educators, Nannies, tamariki and Whānau using our services experience opportunities such as fortnightly playgroups at 3 different locations around Wellington – KoroKoro, Tawa and Manakau.
We organise and facilitate x2 monthly trips in the Wellington region, these range from local parks and playgrounds, bush walks, forest excursions, bike parks, Playland and the gym. These activities are enjoyed by all!
We run Toddler Tuesday at the Johnsonville mall once a month which consists of a craft, face painter and Playdough exploration. This is for Whānau and Educators to join and supports our community connections.
Our Educators are one tight knit Whanau and we welcome everyone with open arms. Our Educators enjoy getting together weekly to organise their own excursions as a team. There are a range of ways we communicate with our Home Grown Kids whanau ranging from a messenger group, newsletters, Storypark, facebook and more .
Our Visiting Teacher team run ads on Facebook for Educators needing to find new care children. This works so well and we often have a bunch of enquiries come through this. VT’s are on hand to help with parent visits and supporting Educators to enrol families if needed.
We support our families by offering a personalised and nurturing environment where each child can thrive and feel valued. Our Educators work closely with families to ensure that every tamaiti receives the care and attention they deserve.
In addition, we celebrate cultural diversity and encourage the sharing of traditions and customs within our community. This enriches the experiences of our tamariki and fosters a sense of belonging and respect for all.
Our commitment to a holistic approach means that we focus not only on educational development but also on the emotional and social well-being of each child. By building strong relationships with Whānau and maintaining open lines of communication, we create a supportive network that benefits everyone involved.
Through our dedicated efforts and community spirit, Home Grown Kids Wellington continues to be a place where children can grow, learn, and play in a safe and nurturing environment. We are proud to be a part of each family’s journey and look forward to many more adventures together.
