We are a family of five living on the outskirts of Hamilton and are very excited to have realised the dream of opening an early childhood education centre having been involved in the industry for over ten years. Our family has a long association and real passion for education and we look forward to sharing this and our unique centre with pre-school children.

Having raised three children of our own and working in the early childhood education industry for several years, we’re pleased that Nicole will be there to support and work alongside our extremely talented and qualified staff and our fulltime Centre Manager, Carolyn Curgenven.

Mike will be in the background helping with business matters and ensuring the facilities and resources are continuously improving and kept up to speed with the demands of a busy centre. Our children are Michaela, Rachael and Daniel. Michaela is in her third year at Waikato University studying Human Resources & Industrial Relations. Rachael is a first year student at Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology studying towards a Bachelor's Degree in Medical Imaging. Daniel is in Year 12 at St Johns College who is a keen sportsman loving rowing and rugby to name a couple.

We always look forward to meeting prospective families and can’t wait for your child’s learning journey to begin at Little Sparrows.
