About Neemo Childcare 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 Neemo Childcare Centre, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“Neemo childcare in Hillcrest is a wonderful early learning centre which offers amazing experience for our little children along with their parents. I have memorable time in this centre as a parent and as a teacher. I highly recommend this centre to all parents who are looking for a safe learning environment for their little ones. The passion in teachers towards their teaching profession is commendable.”
“I would highly recommend Neemo daycare. My now 6yo son started there when he was a 1yo, and my 3yo son is currently there. The staff are friendly, dedicated, supportive, accomodating and caring. They treat my boys like their own. I have got to know their staff well over the last 5 years so I know my son is well looked after, loved and in a thriving environment. Thank you Neemo for all that you do for our family.”
“My girls Heidi and Maddie have been at Neemos since they were 1. They have both been so happy in the baby and toddler rooms, the teachers are all lovely and invest so much into the kids. The variety in the activities they put on for them is awesome. The support crew are all also very close to the kids and understand their comings and goings. The hours (7 to 6) give us the flexibility we need to drop early or late and pick up early or late. We feel so lucky to have the Neemos team looking out for our girls when we can't be ❤️”
“Neemo is a fantastic daycare. The Neemo teachers and management have become like family to us, so warm, friendly, approachable and supportive (not only of our child, but of the whole family unit). This really showed during the pandemic and when we experienced some family tragedies. Experienced and passionate, the team consistently provide quality, diverse learning opportunities, nutritious freshly-prepared food and clear, open communication. After 4 years of fun at Neemo, our daughter has grown in confidence and built a solid foundation of knowledge and skills that mean she will now excel in school. Thanks Neemo team! Keep up the awesome work! Kind regards, the Kleinsorge family.”
