Kidditech Early Learning Centre
About the Business
Welcome to Kidditech Early Learning Centre, located at 21 Stourbridge Street, Christchurch, New Zealand. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, we take pride in providing a warm and inviting preschool environment where relationships are key. At Kidditech, everyone is cared for and respected, and feels valued as part of our community.
Our unique learning programme and environment are based on science and technology concepts, as well as project work that builds on children's interests and natural curiosity. As a husband and wife management team, we bring our skills and interests in early childhood teaching and engineering to our unique family-focused early learning centre.
In addition to the wide variety of hands-on experiences and learning provided for children within the day-to-day life of the centre, we are continually involved in projects. Our teachers work with the children to plan each termly project using everyone's ideas and theories. Through project group work, we offer focused time for children to explore activities, interests, and new experiences incorporating all areas of the curriculum.
We have seen the spark of curiosity ignite in our children through various projects, such as bugs and insects, dinosaurs, and many more. Our children learn in groups and as individuals in an environment rich in discovery and exploring a wide variety of activities, from science to music, baking, and gardening.
Play in nature is an important part of a child's development, and we prioritize providing opportunities for children to connect with the natural world. Baking and food preparation are messy, delicious, and fun activities that allow children to explore their creativity and develop important life skills.
Trips also form a valuable part of our project work, allowing children to expand their knowledge and experiences beyond the centre. We believe in providing a well-rounded education that extends beyond the classroom walls.
We are proud of our Net Promoter Score (NPS), a survey we use regularly to measure parent satisfaction with what we offer to our preschool children and their families. Our score reflects the high level of satisfaction our parents have with our centre, as we consistently exceed the industry average.
Our team of passionate and qualified teachers is dedicated to providing the best care and education for your child. We maintain great teacher-child ratios and prioritize the well-being of both children and teachers. Our low teacher turnover is a testament to the positive work environment we strive to create.
Positive relationships based on support, respect, and trust are at the core of the education and care we provide at Kidditech. We are committed to the holistic well-being, learning, and development of children, and we value the connectedness of whanau (family) and community.
With over a decade of experience in caring for and educating children, we understand the common questions parents have when looking for a preschool or care for their child. We are here to address those questions and provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for your child's growth and development.
Join us every 3rd Thursday of the month for a FREE hands-on activity for children under 5 from 10am to 12pm. We believe in providing opportunities for young children to explore and learn through play.
Thank you for considering Kidditech Early Learning Centre. We look forward to welcoming you and your child into our community.

Reviews
"We have struggled to find a preschool for my two children for the past year. Nothing could compare to kidditech and I only wish we started sooner! Lou and the team are very passionate about what they do and have great relationships with all the children which is so lovely to see everyday. My children are now thriving!! If you are in search of a preschool for your children look no further than kidditech!"
"I highly recommend Kidditech to any parents looking for a preschool in the area. Their small, caring, skilled team are absolutely fantastic - more of an extension of our family than teachers. Our children love the time spent at Kidditech, and have made tight friendships that have carried on to school in the case of our eldest. The Kidditech team are supportive and responsive to any issues that may be going on in our kids' lives and proactively work with us to ensure consistency between preschool and home. We trust them all completely and value their insights and advice. I honestly cannot speak more highly of Kidditech and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them in a heartbeat."
"Both my children have attended Kidditech and one still does. The staff are very welcoming and the children get such a good range of learning experiences before preparing for the transition to primary. We all love being part of the Kidditech whanau."
"Both of my children attended Kidditech and absolutely loved it. The teachers are so warm and welcoming. My children couldn't wait to get there, and never wanted to come home with me. They had a lot of fun outside in the summer playing in the sandpit and getting drenched under the sprinkler, just like you would at home. I love the opportunities for the children to head out on excursions, to the local park, library or around the corner to watch a house being built. The teachers treated my children like they were their own, giving them hugs when they needed it, and rolling around on the floor with them laughing and having fun. It was a very sad day when my youngest turned 5 and headed off to school."
"My son started at Kidditech when he was 2 purely because it was just down the road from where we lived. I could not have wished for a better preschool for him to go to. He is now 4 and absolutely loves the teachers and has made some great friends. Kidditech creates a great learning environment for kids. My son has become a very caring, inquisitive and expressive wee boy since he started at Kidditech. He always looks forward to going."
