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 Kindercare Learning Centres - Paraparaumu, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“I have had a child at Kindercare Paraparaumu for 2.5 years and have been impressed with the care he has received over this time. The staff are knowledgeable for each age group, helpful, caring and happy to accommodate each child’s individual needs. The centre itself is clean and modern with a nice outdoor play area.”
“Our little one has jumped straight into her Kindercare journey this year and we could not love the centre more! She is so supported, and loves her daycare days! There is excellent communication, fantastic learning plans and overall great vibes from this centre and we are so glad that we chose to send our little one here!”
“Kindercare Paraparaumu is one of the best centres on the Kapiti Coast! My almost three year old loves attending everyday. She has made many valuable friendships with her peers by learning from her awesome teachers. We walk into an environment every morning that is welcoming and has a feeling of being part of a family dynamic. I love how the classroom is always set up ready for a fun day of learning based on the childrens interests. My child is always so engaged in the activities on offer that she is happy for me to leave. I love that the centre has amazing cooks that create my child the most nutritious vegetarian meals each day as this has helped with introducing her to new varieties of vegetables that she might normally reject at home because she sees her peers eating them too.”
“We highly recommend Kindercare Paraparaumu to anyone who is looking for quality ECE. Our minds are at ease knowing our little man is in such safe hands. Many thanks KCP Malakai's mum and dad”
“What an amazing experience Kindercare has been. Nurturing our cherub for a few years and now gearing up to move into "big kid school". I can't think highly enough for the teachers she has had at Kindercare.”
