About Education & Care Service
Education & Care Services are mainstream early learning centres that offer full-day or part-day care with a structured curriculum, qualified teachers, and a focus on learning through play. They cater to families needing flexible childcare options and wanting a balanced approach that supports social, physical, and early academic development in a diverse environment.
What Is 20 Hours ECE funding?
20 Hours ECE is a government-funded initiative that helps reduce the cost of early childhood education for families with tamariki aged 3–5. Eligible children can receive up to 20 hours of funded care and education each week at participating services. Centres can set their own enrolment patterns and may ask for optional charges, but the funded hours themselves should be free of compulsory fees. If you are unsure how this works at Adventure Valley Childcare, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“I'm thoroughly impressed with the care and attention my daughters receives at Adventuer Valley Childcare. The staff are warm, engaging, and genuinely invested in the children's well-being and development. The center's environment is safe, clean, and stimulating, providing a wonderful space for kids to learn and grow. The educators are skilled at creating engaging activities that foster creativity, curiosity, and social skills. My elder daughter spent almost 2 years in this childcare and she loved being there and my little one started one month before my elder doughter's graduation party at the childcare. One thing that really stood out to me was my younger daughter's enthusiasm for childcare - she was keen to go even on weekends! Adventure Valley Childcare has truly been a second home to my children, providing them with a sense of security and belonging. The educators are passionate about their work, and it shows in the way they interact with the children. I'm so grateful to have found this wonderful childcare center, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring and supportive community for their child. The team does an excellent job, and I'm grateful to have found such a wonderful childcare center.”
“I enrolled my daughter at AVC a couple months before she turned 3. She is now 4 and a half and still absolutely thriving there. The teachers are so creative, kind and caring and treat every child as special, valued individuals. I was very nervous when first looking for a kindy for my daughter, trusting someone to take care of your child as you do is something you have to be certain about - these ladies and any relieving staff that have ever been at the centre have given me total trust and reassurance that my daughter is safe, loved and looked after. I am so grateful to each one of the staff and am blessed to have my daughter attend here. She has made so many amazing friends. AVC is a beautiful centre.”
“Lovely daycare centre. Awesome teachers, they are so helpful and always remember your name and say hello. Both my son and daughter go there and they have made some really cool friends. The kids enjoy themed days and dress up while learning. Im super happy for them to go there. Its a great place for kids!”
“Our daughter goes to this kura and she had trouble settling in the beginning. The staff were very professional, and loving towards my daughter. They were supportive for myself aswell, and all of this comforted my daughter and now she loves her days at Adventure Valley. Highly recommend this daycare to all...so happy.”
“Fantastic! Our 4 year old attended this lovely family orientated centre when we moved to the area in 2019. He loved his time here. The teachers were amazing, the centre was always so clean with wonderful indoor and outdoor areas. We have just now (Sept 22) enrolled our daughter and on arrival we’re delighted to be greeted by the same lovely teachers from 2019 and the same level of cleanliness. Highly recommend this centre!”
