Editorial policy

Sourcing

Every amount, rate, rule or date must trace to a primary source with a link and an "as of" date. Unverifiable claims are not published.

No fabrication

We do not invent authors, parent reviews, testimonials, ratings or "we tested it" claims. Example figures are labelled as illustrative and use no real names or real children.

Health and child safety

We provide general information, never medical advice, and we defer to HealthHub, the Ministry of Health and your doctor on anything to do with a child's health or development. We do not rank or name a "best" preschool, because the right choice depends on each family.

Independence

Comparisons and figures are never changed by commercial relationships. Where a page carries affiliate links, it says so; the data shown does not depend on them.

Corrections & updates

We fix errors when found or reported, and date every change. See How we research & update.
