Lincoln University Early Childhood Centre

We have a small childcare centre catering to children aged 3 months to school age for Lincoln University’s staff, students and local community.

Licensed for just 33 children, our smaller numbers allow for an intimate and child-centred approach that readily adapts to the learning and needs of each child, our aim is to help very child reach their full potential.
