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?

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 Pitter Patter Childcare, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“Pitter Patter Dominion road is amazing! They were very supportive when I first sent my daughter here, with regular photo updates. The teachers are not only supportive but friendly, very accommodating , they keep you updated especially after the weekend when in the morning my Aleena cries, they will send me a photo of her smiling face. I would highly recommend, sending your child here! It is also tidy and clean always. The way they educate the children is great, lots of fun activities.”

“As new immigrants to New Zealand, we were quite stressed about how our two-year-old son would manage without us in daycare, especially since both of us work full-time. It was our first time leaving him in a care center, but Pitter Patter has been absolutely amazing. The staff are wonderful and handle our son with such care and attention. He’s learning so much every day, and we no longer worry about his meals, sleep, or how he’s adjusting in a new country. Pitter Patter has truly made this transition easier for our family....”

“I cannot recommend Pitter Patter Childcare Centre, Dominion Road highly enough! From the moment we enrolled our child, we’ve been impressed by the warm, safe and nurturing environment. The staff have always been incredibly attentive and truly care about each child's development. My child has blossomed here, engaging in a variety of enriching activities that promote creativity, social skills, and early learning. The communication with parents have always been excellent, keeping us informed about our child's progress and daily experiences. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, providing a safe space for play and exploration. I always felt confident and relaxed knowing my child is in such capable hands. If you're looking for a place where your child will thrive, Pitter Patter is the perfect choice!”
