The relationships that we build with both children and their wider family are the foundation for each child’s learning journey with us. Our curriculum (Te Whaariki) will include aspirations which parents have for their little ones and we welcome parent input into our programme. All children at Mamma Bear will be trusted and respected to be the initiators of their learning and will be guided with supportive teachers every step of the way, developing true confident learners who have a strong sense of self. We believe in fostering children’s independence and we do this by allowing children time and opportunities to explore and solve problems themselves. We will create a consistent and predictable environment for our children which will make them feel secure. Our daily rituals will give children a sense of ownership over their day and will support them to feel safe and secure in our home away from home. We are proud to be a community-based service, offering high-quality education and care at a low cost, in order to support our local community.
