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 Years - Rotokauri LTD, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Its so sweet. 🥲 all my children will go through here. Grateful for those who love my son while me and his papa have other commitments ❤️”

“My two children have both been attending twinkle toes for almost a year now ( both being in different rooms, which is divided into their age groups. Kiwi room for my son Wade who is 2 . And room Tui for my daughter Aries who is 1) and honestly Twinkle Toes Rotokauri is such an amazing early childcare center !!!! They are so awesome in so many different and diverse ways. I love how multicultural they are as a center!! My babies growth and exploration into different cultures and practices has been so awesome, they have grown so much and definately learnt so much about themselves and others since attending "Twinkle toes Rotokauri". Not only has the center been attentive and caring for my children but also to myself as a parent. They have been very supportive and consistent with making sure our transition and journey into the " twinkle toes community" has been a smooth process for our family as whole. From providing transport to and from the center, right down to providing nutrious meals throughout the day, even a detailed 'child and parent App" called Educa which allows you to be apart of your child's growth and progress at the center!! And of course providing exciting, eventful and playful experiences for the kids to be able to learn whilst being in an environment that is very beneficial and comforting for them!! They have definitely done a top notch job as a center to welcome us all and and still continue to cater to various different needs, as we all know how fast and quick things in our personal lives can change, but always making sure our children are always supported right through their journey of life. And twinkle toes has done so much and more to make sure that we have been supported in regards to my kids education and personal situation :) big thank you and shout out to nilesh and twinkle toes team for making this all possible and being consistent with us, we cannot be more happier to consider ourselves apart of the twinkle toes whanau ☺️”
