A little about us

​We are located in the heart of Belleknowes.  We have parks and Roslyn shopping centre nearby for children to explore on ​walking excursions. Our Koru Group regularly visit the town belt for their bush walks as part of the Town Belt Kaitiaki.

We are a well established early childcare centre that has provided education and care for the last 30 years in Dunedin. As a mixed age centre we value the different learning styles each child brings to our centre.

We are licensed for 35 children from 0-5 years. We are a not for profit community and stand alone who work alongside our board of trustees.

We encourage strong  positive relationships between kaiako, children and whanau. At Otago Childcare Centre it is a place where we encourage our children to learn, connect, flourish.
