About Kiddie Academy Early Learning 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 Kiddie Academy Early Learning Centre, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“We bought our first home in Pukekhoe last year, my daughter was 4 year old and very well settled in her pervious day care, after looking around lots of day care in Pukekhoe we decided to choose kiddie Academy and this was the best decision. She loved it, great teachers and management. Teacher even help 4 year old to learn writing like kind of school ready program which is really helpful. They always organize events like mother day tea fathers day breakfast, Matariki(hope I am spelling right). It gives whanau chance to involve and get to know other families as well. My daughter is in school now but my little one still here in kiddie Academy. Kiddie Academy is a home away from home.”
“We've been fortunate to be part of the Kiddie Academy family and I cannot recommend them enough. My son comes home every day smiling, happy, singing away on our drive home. The teachers are very approacable, friendly and always ready to help and go the extra mile. The classrooms are kept really clean, they get delicious lunch and the learning activities are brilliant. If you're looking for a daycare in Pukekohe where your child will be well looked after, this is it! 💗”
