Our Families Stories

    We adore you so much and we appreciate all the care, commitment and fun you have contributed to both Lucas & Lanah's education. You are one in a million. - Lisa and Rob Yeardley

  • Hi Childspace team, I wanted to write to you as a parent (rather than a brother/ex colleague) and say with heart-felt thanks how much we appreciate what you do and who you are. Watching Milo smiling on the stage, beaming as he spelt out L-O-V-E, and witnessing his genuine passion and respect for “te reo” as he called all aspects of Maori culture. Hearing Fraser speak about ‘why’ Childspace exists was beautiful, and I spoke to several parents who felt genuine gratitude for the love and passion offered to their children. You guys do an amazing job and to see the way my boy has grown in 12 months time is so magic. I know most ECE centres do a ‘party’ rather than a ‘show’ form Christmas, but please know the time and effort you give to your Xmas celebration is well worth it to us. Special mention to Budi and Shweeta – their first Christmas concert and they looked liked seasoned pros on the stage and their smiles have helped Milo to find his too a little more often  Thanks again, Morgan Thomas

Childspace is a family business in the truest sense…

Childspace opened its doors 1988, when a passionate educator and loving and devoted mother wanted to provide more for her children and the community of Birkenhead. While Fraser was already attending primary school, his younger brother Morgan was one of the first to reap the benefits of the exceptional centre their mother had created.

Fast-forward 20 years, and despite achieving success in their own fields of design and PR, both Fraser and Morgan had an inherent pull towards teaching. They both completed their Graduate Diploma in Teaching ECE and joined their mother Neena as part of the Childspace teaching team.

10 years later, as Neena approached a well-deserved retirement, and Morgan set his sights on returning to studies, Fraser the current Centre Manager was the prime candidate to ensure the philosophy and magic of Childspace would live on.

January 2016 marked an exciting new chapter in our family’s story, and the legacy of Childspace, as the dynamic husband and wife team of Fraser and Claire took ownership under the name Childspace Preschool. Childspace had truly gone full circle with Fraser the passionate educator, and Claire a loving and devoted mother, determined to provide the most amazing preschool experiences for their own children and community.
