Centre Profile
Located at 19 Canaveral Drive, Mairangi Bay’s Lollipops Educare is a beautiful new purpose built centre where children are a unique part of a wonderful, family oriented environment. Staff are focused on nurturing and educating and have a genuine love of working with children. This devotion creates a happy, relaxed and positive atmosphere in which children thrive.
Babies, Toddlers and Preschoolers Areas
Our modern centre has a simple yet effective layout that is divided into three age groups making transitioning very easy for the children. Sleep rooms are kept at a comfortable temperature with heating and cooling systems and include sparkly ‘star’ lighting and soft sleepy music.
Hours
The centre operates between 7.30am and 6pm each week day. We are closed only on public and statutory holidays.
Getting to know each other
We have an open door policy and encourage parents/caregivers to spend time at the centre getting to know our educators and the routines that we incorporate into our programme, but for any new enquires it is advisable to make an appointment so that time can be spent with you showing you around our centre.
