About Us
Twenty Years of Quality Child Care, Education and Community Connection
The Kidz World story began over twenty years ago with a singular focus: to establish a higher standard for early childhood education in the Rotorua community. From the opening of our very first childcare centre on Rutland Street, our commitment has been to blend the warmth and nurturing of a secure environment with a forward-thinking, research-based curriculum. This dedication to excellence has allowed us to establish a firm and lasting presence across the community.
Our Three Early Childhood Centres
Today, with three strong centres we continue to uphold that founding principle. We remain deeply committed to empowering every child to become a confident, curious, and successful learner, ensuring our high-quality program is accessible and enduring for Rotorua families.
