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

Parent Reviews
“Impressions Childcare has been amazing for our family! Our two boys absolutely love going there — every day is fun, engaging, and full of activities that really support their growth. The staff are wonderful: warm, patient, and genuinely caring. You can tell they’re passionate about what they do. The centre is really well set up with a great mix of learning spaces and play areas, and it has a real family feel from the moment you walk in. Everything is very child-focused, and we always feel confident the boys are in a safe, positive environment. Highly recommend Impressions Childcare to any parents looking for a place that feels like a second home for their kids!”
