Waimahia Centre
Hours: 7.30am—6pm
Phone: 268 8040
We are open during the School Holidays and close for 2 weeks over the Christmas.
Our Location
We are in the recent Waimahia Development, right next to the playground. Our main entrance and parking is off Kuurae Cres.
Early Discoveries Waimahia is a purpose-built centre for children from 5 months to 6 years olds. Our large, open-plan centre opens out onto a spacious contained play area, with a separate area for our younger tamariki.
With modern families needing to work, we offer a full day care service with hours from 7:30am to 6:00pm. We're so excited to be able to have a new centre in this wonderful new community.
Visit us!
You can arrange to our centre on the contact page, and if your children attend our centre, you can pop in for a visit anytime.
ERO Report - coming soon!
Our first ERO report is pending and will be available soon. Delays are due to the COVID-19 lockdown.
