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

Parent Reviews
“Our son has been at Lollipops Lynfield since he was 5 months old and we have always enjoyed being part of the whanau there. Victoria, Candace, Sana and Yarlini were wonderful in the baby room - always encouraging him and keeping us informed. The transition to the Kiwi room was done with compassion and kindness, and he has fit into the new room well thanks to Sandra, Pricilla, Mythlie, Lavita and all the others! Thanks to them our boy is being extended and encouraged to be more independent and form some lovely friendships.”
“It's probably the best childcare center in the area. It's clean, tidy and provide a safe environment for children. Time to time they have amazing programs with 3rd parties where children can gain unforgettable experience. Special thanks goes to Leyla, Sandra, Lovita and Maithali and other team members for taking care of the children like their own. Cheers!”
“Our son started at lollipops Lynfield a month before he turned one. It’s a dreadful experience for any parent when they first drop off their kid but the team at Lollipops Lynfield was so understanding and kind and helped with this transition in a amazingly kind and thoughtful way-we can’t speak more highly of them. A year later -Our son loves going here and we trust the team and couldn’t ask for more.”
“My baby boy absolutely enjoyed the care and learning at Lollipops Lynfield. From 6-month old till now nearly two, he has developed so fast with all the enriched learning experiences that teachers have provided. He loves the meal so much that teachers always make sure he has enough of it! 😉 The staff and teachers are always sharing his stories with lots of happy photos. Hands down to Lollipops Lynfield! 👍”
“We are absolutely thrilled with our experience at Lollipops Lynfield! As first-time parents, this was our first experience with daycare, and it couldn’t have been better. The teachers, management, and everyone we’ve met and interacted with have been incredible. They’re caring, professional, and genuinely attentive to the children’s needs. Our daughter is always happy and engaged, and it’s clear that she’s in a safe, nurturing environment. We couldn’t be happier and feel so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for her! Highly recommend!”
