Ko ngā mahi katoa hei tiaki, hei whāngai, hei whakatipu tamariki, me te aro ki te whanaketanga o ōna taha katoa, taha tinana, taha wairua, taha whānau, taha hinengaro.
All of the work involved in caring for, nurturing and raising children, focussing on all the dimensions of physical, spiritual, social and cognitive development.
poipoi - to nurture
whakatupu tamariki
I āta rangahauhia ngā mahi poipoi tamariki i te wā o ngā tīpuna, mei kore e kitea he tikanga hei āwhina i ngā mātua o ēnei rā nei.
Kāore i tua atu i taua whānau rā ki te poipoi tamariki.
He mahi mutunga kore te poipoi tamariki, ao mai, pō mai.
