Papilio Early Learning Ashburton

Such a warm and caring environment for the children. A lot of knowledge and experience from the whole team.

Papilio Ashburton has such a great family feel. My child has been well looked after and always looks forward to going. It feels like a second home. We could ask for a better service.

Papillon Ashburton Centre has exceeded our expectations in every way. It's more than just an early learning center; it's a second home for our child. The staff, facility, and programs create an environment where our child feels loved, nurtured, and excited to learn. We couldn't be happier with our choice and would highly recommend Papillon to any parent seeking the best for their child's early years.

Thank you, Papillon Ashburton Centre, for taking such excellent care of our little butterfly and helping them spread their wings!:)

Papilio Ashburton provides a warm and welcoming environment, with well planned experiences linking to their life long lerning curriculum which aims to establish and set up children for their future. Highly recommend Papilio Ashburton

Team is lovely and attentive.
Great communication from the team and fun learning experiences with the Lifelong Learning Curriculum. Highly recommended Papilio Ashburton and their team.

The genuine care and commitment from the educators at Papilio Ashburton is exceptional. We really value their frequent and timely communication. Caitlin is a very professional centre manager and from the very beginning made sure our family wasn't treated as just a number. Highly recommend!

We loved the educators at Papilio Ashburton and our son attended for 18months as well as our twin daughters for 3 months. However the affinity group (owners of Papilio) put profit over children at all times. The recent price increase well above the average in the area and with no justification was the last straw for us and we left the centre. There is no consistency with centre management- 4 changes in the last year. Repeated promises for upgrades which have yet to take affect. Poor quality of food provided and no consideration for the ability of the children- (hard apples to children 10 months old). Despite repeated requests to talk to someone above the area manager to express concerns (prior to the price increase), these were all ignored. The educators are v loving and caring but they do not have a supportive employer.

The most amazing center i have ever been. I absolutely love the space here, the environment is very welcoming and warm. Centre is well equipped. They promote play based child centred learning. Team is very caring and patient and working professionally. I highly recommend to all the family to visit the centre.

I have had the pleasure of working at Papilio early learning Ashburton, as support staff, everyone within the centre were extremely welcoming and friendly, answering any questions I may have had, the programs and rooms within the centre are beautiful & well set out for the children to learn & play
The educators there are so caring and genuinely amazing with all of the children

Our daughter is in Nursery 1 and she’s been loving the attentions from the Educators at Papilio Ashburton. Judit, Suhanna and Sashika are wonderful and we can tell our daughter loves them. Additionally, the activities such as winter programs, etc are always something to look forward to.

The personal highlights for me are the Story Parks photos. At the end of every childcare day, we can’t wait to see the photos and share them with the grandparents overseas.

Would recommend Papilio to anyone.

Absolutely love this Centre. My daughter adores the staff and my daughter loves this centre. Definitely recommend.

The team at Ashburton Papilio are fantastic. They are warm and welcoming and have made our son's first childcare experience a very positive one. Highly recommend.

The team at Ashburton Papilio are simply amazing at what they do. Their genuine care and dedication to my child and my child's needs have been truly exemplary. I couldn't have asked for a more thoughtful, considered and incredibly joyous transition to childcare for my child. We are extremely pleased. Thank you and Kudos to you all!

This childcare centre is fantastic. The personalised attention and care shown to the children is evident across all rooms. Any query you have as a parent is responded to promptly and the daily updates are amazing. My son is happy there and loves his teachers. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Such a calm and welcoming place - since the day I went in for a tour I knew this was the right place for my daughter. The educators are warm and friendly, the atmosphere calming and clean - and most of all a very happy little girl.
Highly recommended for any families!

We have been sending our twins to Papilio Ashburton since they were only 6 month old. The educators have always been caring, warm, professional and reliable. Our twins love their days there, they learn, they play, and most importantly they are happy! Food there is yummy too, my daughter sometimes says uncle's (chef at Papilio Ashburton) pasta is yummier than mummy's, lol! We love to see they grow at Papilio Ashburton, and thank you to all the educators for all of the hard work they put in to make it such a great centre!

Fantastic childcare Center. All the educators are caring and loving. My daughter loved Papilio so as I.

Sending our daughter to Papilio early learning center Ashburton was the right choice and a good decision. The educators are very helpful; they guided us at every step and helped whenever we needed the most. Center manager Dani, always comes forward and helps. Our daughter has learnt a lot and we thank each and every educator at Papilio.
Thanks a lot for the support in this journey.

We love Papilio Ashburton! My son adores his educators and always wants to go and visit them. He’s well fed, the food is balanced and healthy, but not too much- he still gets yummy snacks! The communication is great and Dani the centre manager is always on hand to talk. It’s just a really great childcare.

Choosing Papilio Ashburton was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made.and that was over 4 years ago! Both our boys love it, and so do we. The staff are all amazing- so caring and also creative, they foster a lovely environment for curious minds.
