At Keiki Butler, we aim to make morning drop-offs calm and positive for both children and families. When you arrive, you’ll bring your child to their room and speak with their educators, who will support a happy and calm start to the day. Each room will follow a routine at drop off such as placing bags away, putting nappies into baskets or unpacking drink bottles for the trolley. Children are encouraged to take part in these routines, helping them build independence and a sense of belonging. We also invite parents to take a few minutes to settle their child and share any important updates with the educators.

For added security, Keiki Butler uses a pin code entry system to maintain a safe and secure environment for every child. You will be provided with your own unique pin code as part of the enrolment process, and you will use this each day to gain access to your service. Families also sign children in and out via our secure Xplor app, ensuring accurate attendance records and smooth communication.
