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 Go Bananas Childcare Target Rd, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“I am so glad to have enrolled my son to go bananas target road. Appreciate the teachers as they all were able to settle my son very soon. He likes to go to school because of them. Especially I want to thank Amritha teacher (center manager) , Teacher Ragini and Teacher Ronil.”

“My kids really enjoy being in the school because they have various activities every day. The teachers are very supportive especially when your kids are having tantrums and having difficulties leaving them in the morning time. The play area and their room are so spacious that children could have their own space”

“My niece has been going to this day care since it started . I strongly believe that they provide safe and congenial environment for the children's healthy growth and development. The teachers are lovely, friendly, trustworthy and know their job perfectly. The management is very approachable and supportive to the teachers and parents. I am totally satisfied with the service because my sister and her family is very happy there. The center provides a nutritious and balanced food for every child's well- being. I have recommended the service to my family and friends who are very happy and satisfied as well. I give a five star to the center as a whole.”

“Just read the comment made by somebody last night. This is outrageous. My child will be three and she is going there from last one year. We are absolutely happy with the services provided by Go banana target road childcare. I have recommended this day care to so many of my friends and they loving it in there too. Children are well looked after and I have seen learning happening throughout the day and during pickup and drop-offs. Food is freshly prepared throughout the day and is highly nutritious. Staff is amazing, always happy, welcoming, warm and positive so could see they have very strong relationships with the children. Management is very approachable and easy to speak to. Highly recommended”

“My 2 kids have been going to Target road centre for almost a year. My son kind of started here from 4 months. He was well looked after and my daughter I can't thank the team enough for the efforts they put in when there were some concerns regarding her development. I had all the support from teachers and management. I would recommend the centre to all.”
