“One of the best feelings in the world is knowing your presence and absence both mean something to someone”

Your child will love us!

We live for the great outdoors. It is all about puddle hunting, mud hunting, hill sliding, and exploring. Actually, it’s anything that’s creates awesome memories and is full of thrills, spills and FUN!
No Cotton Wool Kids is totally committed to developing children through child led play.
But we also understand that the hardest thing for any parent is taking the first step into looking at childcare. Whether childcare is a need or a want, the whole process is often an emotional journey. We’ve been there and totally get it.
That is why we work alongside you and guide you through the whole process, every step of the way.
Your family becomes our family and that is how we like it.

A couple of other bonuses are
• We provide the 20 hours ECE per week for children when they turn the big 3! *
• Plus, we accept WINZ subsidies and help you with the whole application process. * Sometimes parents aren’t even sure if they may be eligible for subsidies but that’s okay… we will even look into that for you too. BONUS!
• You get photo’s and stories about what awesome memories your child has been creating. And updates about the valuable learnings they have had while having a blast.
