Amanda’s Homebased Early Childhood Education has established itself firmly as a leading, quality homebased education option for parents in the greater Auckland area.


Amanda’s Homebased Early Childhood Education, which was established in 1999, provides homebased care for children aged 0-5. Their service is focused on education and care, and they boast a number of highly trained, experienced Educational Team Leaders.


“All of our Educators are expected to be in continual training and we encourage further recognised training, alongside professional development and in house training,” says Amanda McIntosh, Managing Director.

Amanda’s Homebased Early Childhood Education’s services include a pre-literacy programme and a “Readyness for School” programme, which focuses on preparing children for the classroom environment.


What sets Amanda’s Homebased Early Childhood Education apart from other childcare options are their values, high standards, experience and knowledge of the Early Childhood Education sector.


“Children do well with us,” Amanda says. “We know what we are doing and we provide the early childhood experience you want for your child.”

Children are cared for in their Educator’s homes and are provided with a safe, appropriate and stimulating play environment. The focus is on small group sizes to enhance children’s learning, with a one adult to four children ratio.  


“Parents value the service because of the home environment it provides and because of the small number of children cared for in each home,” said a 2008 ERO review.


Amanda’s Homebased Early Childhood Education offers affordable fees, including a second child discount. Some families may also be eligible for a WINZ Childcare subsidy.
