Here at MASH Out of School Care, we are always looking at innovative ways to improve our service and ensure that we are giving caregivers & children the care and service they need and want. We live by the ethos that we are not babysitters; we work hard to add value to children’s lives and equip our staff with the skills and knowledge to be able to provide social, emotional, academic and physical support to children. We are all about adding value to a child’s life and it is the pinnacle of everything we do!

With that in mind, we are currently working on improving our service further and we see academic research as fundamental to this, however, we recognise that research in the area of Out of School Care in New Zealand is limited. We are therefore, going to be conducted our own research; we want to know exactly what a Kiwi caregiver wants from an Out of School Care provider!

We have created a short survey which we want as many caregivers as possible to complete.

Anyone who completes the survey will be in with an opportunity to win one of two 7” tablets. The closing date for this is Friday 1st November.
