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 Uxbridge Early Learning Centre, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“We're so thankful to have been part of Uxbridge Kindy, I know we treasure the memories there and our daughter does too! It has been her happy and safe haven, to explore and learn. Many of the fundamental and foundational skills of her early learning has been created here. Thank you for doing your best in providing this for her. We have been blessed by this! We are gutted we can't be a part of it now as moving to Gulf Harbour. But we know there's great to come in both our journeys! Will miss the smiles and warmth, close knit community you teachers help make for the parents ❤️ Wishing you all the best this year! Keep up the amazing work. You're all doing a wonderful job for the children. Best kindy ever.”

“This place is absolutely amazing! Caring, loving and professional teachers, spacious, beautiful and clean spaces plus a wonderful garden with playground, massive sandpit, and water play areas. Our little one jumps out of happiness every time he goes to Uxbridge. He's been very well looked after and has learned a lot. Very grateful for all the hard work and passion the staff puts into the kids and the community.”
