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

Parent Reviews
“Enrolled our bubba when he was 10months old (started visits and transitions at 8months) I am so glad someone recommended them to us the first visit went well compared to all other daycares we went too. My bubba is now 2 1/2 years old and thriving, well cared for and loved. He is so excited to go to "school" and tells us all about it at pick ups. All Thanks to the Little ranges whanau! ❤️❤️❤️”
“My daughter is an OG at Little Ranges and I can honestly say sending her here was the best decision. Being a first time mum I was anxious about putting my daughter in childcare and being away from her but the wonderful teachers here put my mind at ease. My daughter is thriving in so many ways. Little Ranges provides a safe and nurturing environment as well as being equipped with everything my daughter needs to learn, explore and have fun. The teachers have created an awesome environment for my daughter to be in, I honestly wouldn’t think twice about sending her anywhere else. Little Ranges is like home away from home.”
“My little toddler absolutely loves coming to Little Ranges daycare! She is THRIVING under their care. The attention and genuine love they give her everyday has transformed our little 1 year old and we are so so grateful we found them! A bit of a back story is we moved her from another daycare (one of the most well known ones in Henderson Heights) because I noticed she’s just not as happy as she used to be, it just wasn’t the right fit. So I was sooo pleased that ever since she started going to Little Ranges she has FLOURISHED! Love the team at little ranges thank you for loving our girl! If you are looking for a team who will truly be your partner in raising your child, look no further than Little ranges :) 10 star all the way!!”
“Since I enrolled both my kids (son) 6 months and (daughter) 19 months to Little ranges, i could not have been more content and happier with each and every milestones they have been achieving. The team they have are very supportive and kind through the struggles I’ve had being a single mum of two. You can definitely trust the staff to provide care and attention the kids in their care, My children have both grown so much in their communication skills, social skills, and learning abilities. I really needed my children to feel nurtured and they have continued to grow as I have always felt this from the teachers and management. I really value this place as my child's second home and have no hesitation to recommend it to any families looking for a place to support them with childcare. ❤️”
“I stumbled on this gem and popped in to be nosey cause I'm an ECE teacher myself. It is stunning! A beautiful little centre, just opening up, only 20 children and there will be a minimum of 4 staff. The outside area you just don't see very often in childcare centre's anymore. If I was going to have another baby I would love for them to attend this centre, you just feel the welcoming energy as you walk in.”
