EarlyON Child and Family Centres

As of January 2018, children and families in the Wellington service delivery area have access to enhanced programmes and services through EarlyON Child and Family Centres.

EarlyON Child and Family Centres provide opportunities for children from birth to 6 years of age to participate in play-based programmes, and support parents and caregivers in their roles. These centres will offer safe and welcoming environments open to all families, with qualified professionals and quality programmes. Families and caregivers will be able to find support, advice, make personal connections and access a network of resources.
