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 Bridge Kids, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“Great centre with the most gorgeous rooms and staff”
“Our three year old daughter started here a few months ago - we couldn't be happier. Wonderful staff and great facilities. Every teacher is our daughters favourite. I particularly appreciate that they make a big effort to create a varied learning environment. Recommended.”
“This is the best daycare to send your little ones too. The staff there are so understanding and truly care for your children like they would their own. They do everything to help you as a parent and they will go out of their way to make your child feel welcome and cared for. The teachers are fully engaged and participating in activities with the kids all day long.”
