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 Millie's House Connolly Street, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“We feel so grateful for Millie’s House and the amazing team who have cared for Ollie and Max since 2020. Through all the ups and downs, including the challenges of Covid, Bailey, Amy and the other wonderful kaiako have been such an important part of our boys’ lives from the time they turned 1 until leaving for their school years. Their kindness, patience, and genuine love for our boys has given us so much peace of mind as parents. It’s more than just a centre, they have been an extension of our family. Thank you for helping Ollie and Max grow, learn, and feel so supported over these years! We couldn’t have asked for better people to be by their side and are very sad to end this era 🥰”
“We’ve absolutely loved our time at Millie's House. The Kaiako (teachers) are so supportive and caring, and the environment is great, lots for the kids to do. Our son has thrived here. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend it to other families!”
“My first kid was at Millie’s for 4.5 years and I was so excited for my second to start earlier this year. The staff are wonderful and caring and the centre is lovely and has lots of space for the kids. I also love that I don’t have to worry about packing a lunchbox.”
“We have had kids at millies for 4 years now. The staff are lovely and caring and help your children progress. The kids are fed, healthy and happy and are stimulated by the curriculum. Management is good too, great comms, keeping families informed and valuing their contributions to policies and running of the centres.”
“Our 1 year old twins are at Millie's House and absolutely love it! Staff are very caring and great with the kids. They love playing in the big back yard and they provide awesome meals every day 🙂”
