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

“This little gem isn't just a kindy-it's a small community. Everything about it feels like another home. Our son thrived here under the care of the teachers, who all treated our son as their own. Loads of space for the kids to explore. Nature-based, calm, safe, welcoming and warm, Oromahoe kindy is the perfect place for children to grow, learn and develop. Cannot rate this kindergarten highly enough.”

“Such a welcoming and wonderful place to be! We love to have our son cared at this appreciative place. The teachers from Oromahoe Kindergarten are all so respectful and caring. They provide everything the little ones need to grow, a warm athmosphere, healthy, yummy food cooked with love, creating rituals, singing songs, exploring the spots in and around the kindergarten and so much more. I highly recommend this place!”

“This Steiner-style kindergarten is a gem. The teachers' passion and deep understanding of Steiner's philosophy created a nurturing environment for my two sons to thrive intellectually, emotionally, and creatively. My sons were happy and never said they don't want to go to the kindy. The kindergarten's focus was strongly on the community, not the business. It brought parents together through many community events. Having Oromahoe School on the other side of the road was also handy. I could drop my older son at the school and the younger son at the kindy on the same trip. I highly recommend this kindergarten to parents who want the best for their children.”

“This lovely kindergarten is an oasis and my two children have loved going. I feel it has set them up so well to both enjoy their childhood and grow into caring and insightful little people. An awesome community of parents and teachers have made this place feel like home and (I dare say) have helped me become a better parent. Thank you Oromahoe Kindergarten.”
