We are here to make your life easier

We know that parenting is the most rewarding and also the most demanding job you’ll most likely ever have. Many of us require childcare to go to work or get through our 'to-do' lists each day. Here at Strawberry Garden we aim to make life easier for you.

We provide part time and full time childcare that you can trust. We care for children from 4 months to school age and take the stress out of your day by giving you the assurance that your child is being nurtured and supported by the very best heart-centered teachers.

Centre Founder - Tina Kennedy

Hi, I'm Tina Kennedy - mother of six children aged from 21 months to 22 years old. I'm a qualified experienced early childhood teacher and manager with 20 years experience teaching, managing and reviewing the quality in many Auckland and Hawkes Bay childcare centres.

I've almost always been a working mother and deeply understand the importance of having high quality childcare that you can trust and depend upon.

In 2016 my family and I relocated back to Napier and settled into the beautiful Bayview area. We started looking for childcare for our youngest daughter Olivia and found it a real challenge to find suitable local childcare for her. Having established a number of quality early childhood centres I decided to open a centre that would provide exceptional care for my youngest two children and help other families in our community looking for the same.

I am proud to have high standards and am always asking myself "would this be good enough for my own children?" and when employing staff I always assess if I would trust this teacher implicitly with my own child.  I know you'll agree that the team we have employed at Strawberry Garden are exceptional first class teachers.

I want what you want: consistent loving care and attention for my child AND a preschool education that will enable them to feel confident and capable when they move onto school. I welcome you to message or phone anytime with questions you may have about Strawberry Garden Childcare.

We employ a team of qualified heart-centered teachers who are deeply committed to the principles of love, kindness and respect in all that we do. When you visit we will introduce you to our wonderful team
