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 People, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“We absolutely love this daycare! The teachers are amazing. So caring, patient, and genuinely invested in the kids’ happiness and learning. The food is also really good. My daughter has been going here since she was 9 months old and she always comes home happy and content. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in such a nurturing and positive environment. Highly recommend!”

“Little People has provided exceptional care for my baby since she was 7 months old. My little one has eczema and a cow’s milk allergy, which can be challenging to manage, but the staff here have been absolutely fantastic. They are thorough with applying her creams as needed which help greatly in managing her flare up. They also accommodate her routine from home, making the transition seamless and comforting for her. The team is attentive, compassionate, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure she’s comfortable and happy. Every time I pick her up, she comes home happy and content, which says so much about the nurturing environment they provide. I feel so confident leaving her in their care, knowing she’s in such capable hands. Highly recommend this center to any parent looking for a reliable and loving childcare environment!”

“My son has gone here since he was 1.5 and he’s now 4! There’s no one I trust more with my son and every staff member is so passionate about kids. The daycare is always well kept and I am always amazed with all the new things that they teach the children. Couldn’t have picked a better centre and I recommend it more to anyone.”

“All the teachers are amazing and are very hands on with the children, there’s so many different cultures and they cater to them all making everyone feel more than welcomed and embracing not only the children but the parents also. Playtime, learning time, singing time, sleep time all go hand in hand and all three of our children have taken away many of these great skills and have taught us things at home that we also encourage and apply. Such a great centre for children to develop learning skills⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“When I was looking for a daycare for my son couple of years ago, I spoke with other parents and ECE teachers about what to look out for. The main things I was told to check were whether the teachers were fully trained and what the staff turnover rate was. Little People ticked those boxes as the teachers were fully trained, looked happy to be there and the staff turnover rate was low. Most of the information I found on their website and the rest were observed during the initial visit to the daycare. It didn’t take long for me to realise that I’d made the right decision. My son has been at Little People for almost couple of years now and it’s truly the best place for him. He’s happy, always excited to go there and absolutely adores his teachers. The teachers are friendly, caring, professional and attentive to his needs and have gone the extra mile to support his development. I highly recommend Little People to anyone on the hunt for a daycare. The experience as a parent has been an absolute dream and I’m grateful for all that they have done for my son. They’ve done a fabulous job of creating a safe, inclusive, creative and fun space for children to grow and be themselves.”
