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 Li'l Champs Educare, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“I have been sending my Daughter here at "Lil Champs - Blockhouse Bay" since 2 years now and I feel very proud to say that the teachers have worked very hard to build a great confidence in her and that nowadays, she likes doing almost all her daily things independently by herself, which makes us (the parents) feel very happy and proud. Thank you to all the teachers and applaud to you, as you are doing a great job in raising the "Lil champs"”
“I think five stars is not enough, the whole team is doing a great job, everyone has their own clear division of labor, everyone works together to take care of the children. Today, when I came home from work and saw the gift of Mother's Day and cookies from Jackson, I was so touched. I am very happy that I sent Jackson to lil Champs Childcare and I am very grateful to the limpcap manager and teachers for their hard work. Thank you so so so much guys!”
