Wilton Playcentre

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Wellington, Wilton Playcentre has been a cherished cornerstone of our community for over four decades, offering more than just childcare - we're a place where dreams take root, friendships blossom, and curious minds grow. Since our founding in 1980, we've dedicated ourselves to the nurturing and education of young minds, fostering an environment that encourages exploration, creativity, and the spirit of discovery. Our approach to early childhood education is unique. We believe in child-led learning, a philosophy that empowers children to take charge of their own learning journey. Each day brings new opportunities for our little explorers as they immerse themselves in a rich tapestry of learning experiences. From the artistic delights of painting and musical play, to the joyous splashes of water play and the engineering marvels of construction play, every moment spent at Wilton Playcentre is brimming with possibilities. We proudly offer mixed-age sessions, creating a rich, multifaceted community where our children can learn from one another. Older siblings share their wisdom, while younger ones look up to the older kids as role models. This dynamic fosters a sense of camaraderie and mutual respect that extends beyond the classroom, shaping our children into empathetic and caring individuals. At Wilton Playcentre, we're not just preparing our children for kindergarten; we're equipping them with the skills, confidence, and curiosity to thrive in life. Our commitment to excellence in early childhood education is evident in every corner of our centre, from the thoughtfully designed spaces that encourage imaginative play, to the nurturing, passionate educators who guide our children on their educational journey. We invite you to step into Wilton Playcentre and experience the magic for yourself. Here, you'll find more than just a childcare centre - you'll find a community, a family, a place where every child is valued, loved, and given the tools they need to flourish. Come, join us as we continue our mission to inspire, educate, and nurture the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and dreamers in Wellington.
