Start an exciting new chapter in your child's life by enrolling The Y Early Learning Centres.
If your kid is 3+ years old, they are eligible for 20 hours of free care!
Our centres provide small, community-focused care where tamariki can explore, play, and grow in a warm and supportive environment with experienced educators.
Spaces are limited across our centres, so we encourage families to submit an enquiry early.
Early education is an important step in your child’s life. It could be preschool, kindergarten or an early learning centre – making the right choice is important for you and your family.
Prepare your child for a quality future through nourishment and strength in a safe, caring environment. The Y (formerly YMCA) supports skill, social, emotional and cognitive development through three core themes – nature, nurture and being active, which will allow your child to connect with themselves, their environment and their community.
