Gems Educational Childcare was whispered to me many times when I started looking for the next bit in my wee one’s journey for Childcare in Queenstown.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When I started looking I did what most people do and asked my mates. I also “ummmed” and “aaarrred” about the seemingly complicated process of what they offer (it’s not difficult at all) and location dependant.<\/span><\/p>\n Wren was nearly ten months old, I wanted somewhere I could leave her and feel absolutely ensured that she was happy (happy baby= happy parental) and somewhere where their values and ways of working sat well with mine: *cue stage left* Gems<\/span><\/a> Educational Childcare.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/queenstownlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/103-GEMS-Kowhai.jpg” alt=”Why I chose Gems Educational Childcare” title_text=”103 – GEMS – Kowhai” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”]<\/p>\n She also loves food. Alot. So could they offer her food at the same rate I could (to be honest I couldn\u2019t keep up)? The first thing Gems Educational Childcare staff and my partner and I bonded over was their love of good food<\/span><\/a> and full bellies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I had a few m\u0101m\u0101 friends who I trusted and the same name kept popping up “Gems”.<\/span><\/p>\n Jane : “I want somewhere where they have a primary caregiver”<\/span><\/p>\n Friend: “Gems”<\/span><\/p>\n Jane: “I want somewhere where play is the singularly most important thing in a child’s world”<\/span><\/p>\n Friend: “Gems”<\/span><\/p>\n Jane: “I want her to be encouraged to think for herself.

literally was like a beautiful cocoon of play, eating and friends (I wanted to stay there all day myself). She had a primary caregiver, who made sure we were informed of all the developments<\/a><\/span> and updates. There\u2019s also an epic system of educa (online system) where photos, stories and developments are uploaded by her primary caregiver to keep not only us informed but grandparents\/ friends\/ family who might be far away. So it feels like they\u2019re here and still in the loop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n At two she headed into \u2018The Hive<\/span><\/a>\u2019 where she now has more friends and is mobile! So many things to discover, climb on, run to and laugh at. Again a primary caregiver, Rachel, who we can connect with and discuss anything we have going on (or Wren is struggling with- icecream for breakfast?).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n We also loved the fact that we didn\u2019t have to make lunch boxes (and am dreading for school days and one of the reasons I chose R\u0101t\u0101: food provided).
