Hill Street Early Childhood Centre

Hill Street Early Childhood Centre is a non-profit early childhood service providing quality education and childcare in Thorndon—an inner-city suburb of Wellington, New Zealand. 

As a non-profit group the centre is owned and governed by the families whose children attend. We cater for 25 children, from 10-months to school-age. All of our teachers are fully qualified and registered, and we have very high teacher: child ratios.

At Hill Street ECC we understand that your child needs a secure and stimulating environment in which to grow and learn. Our centre provides a warm, nurturing, multi-cultural community where your child can develop into a happy and confident learner. 

Children have access to Hill Street’s large, natural outdoor play area throughout the day. We provide your children with healthy, home-cooked meals. We take full advantage of our city location by offering regular excursions to nearby parks, gardens, libraries, art galleries, and museums. 

Children are enrolled on a full-time basis. Having a small, close-knit group of children helps create a warm family environment and is one of the unique strengths of our centre. Because we are a non-profit charitable organisation, 100% of your fees go directly toward running and maintaining the centre.
