Our Centre Manager
I am Shannon Docherty and I’ve worked in leadership for over eight years, five of those being as a Centre Manager. My partner and I live in Helensville with our three beautiful boys and being a parent myself only deepens my commitment to creating safe, respectful and joyful spaces for tamariki to grow. I lead with heart and what matters most to me is that every child feels seen, every whānau feels welcome, and every teacher feels supported to shine.
I’m looking forward to meeting you!

Parent Feedback
We absolutely love All About Children- Apollo Drive! The teachers are incredible – always warm, friendly, and genuinely invested in the kids’ wellbeing. Both of our children attend and absolutely love going to “school” each day. It’s such a comfort knowing they’re in a caring, nurturing, and fun environment. We’ve seen them thrive and grow so much thanks to the amazing team. We would highly recommend All About Children to any parents considering childcare.
We enrolled our son at this daycare when he was just 8 months old, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, the teachers have been incredibly caring, attentive, and patient. Our little one is always happy and excited to go each day, and it’s clear he feels safe and loved there. We are so grateful for the warm and nurturing environment they provide!
We absolutely love All About Children- Apollo Drive! Our son started a couple of months ago and had a bit of a tough transition, since he had mostly been around adults and wasn’t used to being with other kids. But the wonderful team at the preschool welcomed him with so much care and patience. He has blossomed in such a short time! He absolutely loves the 5-star food menu, and every day he comes home happy after playing and learning with his lovely teachers and new friends. We’re so grateful to have found such a nurturing and positive environment for him!!
