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

“Early Impressions is literally a hidden gem in Johnsonville!! It's so easy to walk right by, however I urge parents looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their children, to pop-in and see all it has to offer. The teachers are experienced, dedicated, supportive, all inclusive, creative, and genuinely care about children's well-being. There are a variety of activities and planned trips to look forward to, as well as music playing most days. Above all, our child has been happy here and always looks forward to attending.”
“Having worked and had my children go to this fantastic well resourced center. I would rate this center as one in a million. The staff a kind, caring, wonderful, bunch of ladies, that take pride in all aspect of child development, catering for each child's individual abilities. I can not rate this center highly enough.”
