Welcome
Kia Ora

Nestled within the wonderful neighbourhood of Massey West (Auckland, NZ), Feathers is family-owned and operated by Narelle.

We will surround your tamariki with aroha and help them to learn, grow and explore. Our education is child-led and play-based.

Our amazing and long-standing Kaiako team are fun, caring and passionate about helping tamariki to become curious and life-long learners in a place they feel a true sense of belonging. A place that feels like home.

Our Spaces

Our Place

Our team have purposefully created spaces that allow children to safely explore and learn. Our tamariki love to spend time out in nature within our large, shaded outdoor play areas, which are always filled adventure and laughter.

Your child will have a primary kaiako that is dedicated to ensuring their day is nourishing and full of fun. Each day is designed to follow the routine you have at home with a sprinkling of indoor learning and outdoor exploration.

We also acknowledge and encourage parents and whanau participation in their child’s learning, by ongoing communication through documenting stories from home, joining in our Feathers Story Park, Facebook parent group, and welcoming their suggestions towards our curriculum.

Under Twos

Ngā Kakano (The Seed)

This is our nurturing under-twos space, it is an unhurried, calm and loving environment.

Our Ngā Kākano kaiako – Sonal, Nicola, Kiri, and Amy – work closely with you to follow your child’s rhythms for sleep, bottles, solids and play, so their day at Feathers feels like a natural extension of home.

Over Twos

Ngā Puawai (The Blossom)

This is our spacious, open-plan room for over-twos, where tamariki learn through play, exploration and lots of conversation.

Thoughtfully set-up areas invite children to build, paint, pretend, climb and enjoy the outdoors, supporting their growing independence, friendships and problem-solving skills.

Our kaiako notice what your child is curious about and plan rich learning experiences together with whānau.

Our Team

Meet our kaiako

We are fortunate to have an experienced kaiako team with over 20 years ECE experience, including many years at Feathers.

We endeavour to support and reach out to families from all cultures and ethnicities. Your child will be in a safe, nurturing and loving environment, where they will be welcomed and supported by qualified professional, caring teachers who will respond to your child’s emotional needs and to their individual development interests.

We value listening to each child with our ears, eyes, and heart, and offer children the opportunity to discover, explore, and be confident individuals with the right to be active participants in structuring their own learning.
