Meet Our Director

Our Director Aimee has been working in Early Childhood and Development for over 15 years. She has over 10 years experience as a teacher and five years as an Early Intervention Teacher for a government agency. Aimee has completed multiple qualifications in early childhood and values continued education. She received the prestigious Linking Minds Scholarship which allowed her to travel to Wales to follow her interest in bi-cultural learning and learn about how this impacts child development. Aimee’s areas of interest include atypically developing children, bi-cultural practices, the relationship between children and nature, and simplicity parenting.

Aimee bought Kiwi Educare in 2020 to create a safe and nurturing environment for tamariki which would benefit from her experience and unique skill set. Her vision for the centre is to provide a fun, playful atmosphere which also fosters child growth and development. Aimee is married with four children and loves the great outdoors.

What our clients say

The Kiwi Educare team are friendly, caring, and do a great job looking after my son. He started at the centre at 18 months old and loves spending time there – playing in the sandpit, dancing to music and learning new things. As a family we love the effort that goes into the special activities organised around themes such as Matariki, Olympics and Mother’s Day and how we are invited to take part. Highly recommended as a safe, happy place for your little one.
- Rachel McRae
Both my daughter and son absolutely love kiwi educare, its been amazing to watch them thrive and grow over the years. The teachers are loving and nuturing and have provided a great preschool education and fun.
- Emily
I highly recommend Kiwi Educare as being a smaller centre it means teachers have that one on one quality interaction with children. For example when my kids first attended the daycare they were very reserved and shy but with the great support from all teachers my kids are now social butterflies who have grown into confident and independent children. As a parent I cannot thank the teachers enough for showing and giving my children their love and attention.
- Karli and William
Kiwi Educare has been the most amazing centre for our family.We wanted to say thank you so much for taking care of our baby son. You guys have made having to go back to work and leave our baby so much easier. We feel at ease knowing he is having so much fun at daycare. He is always learning new things and being challenged. The staff and teachers are all lovely and so caring. We love that you are open early enough for an easy drop off and open late enough for those later work days when needed. Nothing is ever a problem. We feel like we have gained a second family so we truly thank you for all your hard work.
- Love the Thom Family
Right from our first visit, Kiwi Educare helped us feel so comfortable with the thought of someone else taking care of our son (which as a first time parent can be quite daunting!). All of the teachers were so warm and friendly and we very quickly made to feel part of the Kiwi Educare family. We love the regular updates we get on the Educa app of our son’s learning progress and growth and they were open to accommodating our cloth nappy needs as well which a lot of other centres said no to. I really can’t say enough how much we love this centre for our boy. Looking forward to many more years of our children being part of this wonderful whanau.
