About Blooming Stars Childcare
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 Blooming Stars Childcare, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“Very good management and staffs.. highly recommended”
“Blooming star is the best childcare I have experienced. My son never liked to go to childcare but since he is enrolled in blooming stars he always wants to go himself. I am very satisfied with his overall development and the credit goes to the wonderful team. Its home away from home 🏠. Thanks blooming star ⭐️”
“Enrolling my child at Blooming stars childcare centre is one of the best decision I have made. Within few days, I could see very positive changes in my child. His social competence as well as learning and development enhanced so well. The bunch of ladies (kaiako) are very caring and have positive attitude towards children's learning and growth. Thank you Blooming stars for having as as part of your whānau. Ngā mihi”
