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 Little Earth Montessori Remuera, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“My son has been attending LERM for a couple of years now, and I can’t say enough good things about the staff and the environment. From day one, they made him (and us!) feel so welcome and comfortable. Every morning, he’s excited to go, which speaks volumes about how much he enjoys being there. The caregivers are warm, attentive, and truly seem to care about each child’s well-being and development. They keep us updated with photos and notes, which is such a nice touch. The activities are fun, educational, and age-appropriate, and I’ve already noticed so much growth in his social skills and confidence. The facility is always clean, safe, and well-organized, and the communication from the team is excellent. As a parent, it gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such great hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a daycare that feels like a second home!”

“An absolute hidden gem! This preschool has been a true blessing for our family. My son has made incredible progress—he's learned to write, count, and his behavior has improved so much. My younger child is thriving in the baby room, loving the nurturing environment and delicious, wholesome food. The staff have been so welcoming and supportive, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Hands down, the best preschool we’ve come across!”

The Montessori runs on a time table which make the children's day full of activities. Highly recommend this Montessori.”

“Little Earth has a very family feel. It's a small facility which means you get to know all the teachers and there's lots of opportunity for the kids to interact across the age groups. Providing homemade lunches is a huge plus! It's also the only Montessori daycare in Auckland I've come across starting from 0 years, meaning you don't need to switch daycares at 2 yo in order to get the Montessori approach.”
