Why Specialist ECE Cleaning Matters

General office cleaning standards are not enough for early childhood environments.

ECE cleaning requires:

• Infection-control knowledge

• Safe chemical management

• Structured documentation

• Staff who understand child-safe environments

• Consistent cleaners who build trust with your team

Clean Planet Wellington serves all Millie House centres in Wellington and multiple kindergartens across the region with specialist ECE cleaning, childcare cleaning, daycare centre cleaning, and kindergarten cleaning services.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a kindergarten be professionally cleaned?

Most kindergartens and ECE centres require daily cleaning of classrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, sleep rooms and high-touch surfaces. High-risk areas such as nappy change stations and food preparation areas may require multiple cleans per day depending on usage.

Are your cleaning products safe for children with asthma or allergies?

Yes. We use Sensitive Choice certified products that are low-tox and suitable for environments where children may have asthma, allergies or respiratory sensitivities. We avoid harsh fumes and strong masking fragrances.

Are your cleaners police-vetted for ECE environments?

Yes. All Clean Planet Wellington staff are Ministry of Justice (MOJ) checked before working in any childcare or early learning facility. We assign consistent, trained teams who understand child-safe cleaning protocols.

Do you clean while children are present?

Most kindergarten cleaning is completed after hours to minimise disruption. If required, we can provide scheduled cleaning during operating hours using quiet equipment and child-safe methods.

What areas require the most frequent cleaning in a childcare centre?

High-risk areas include nappy change stations, bathrooms, kitchen and food preparation areas, sleep rooms, play equipment, toys, door handles, handrails and other high-touch surfaces.

Do you provide documented cleaning schedules for audits or inspections?

Yes. We provide structured cleaning schedules and can supply documentation to support centre compliance requirements and audit processes.

Do you provide a cleaning schedule suitable for ECE licensing audits?

Yes. We provide written cleaning specifications and task completion documentation that align with the requirements of the Education Review Office (ERO) and Ministry of Education ECE licensing criteria.

How do you handle nappy change stations and sleep rooms hygienically?

Nappy change stations and sleep rooms are treated as high-risk zones. Each is cleaned using dedicated equipment that is not shared with other areas of the facility. We use Sensitive Choice certified disinfectants appropriate for surfaces that young children may contact.

What is the cost of kindergarten cleaning in Wellington?

Kindergarten and ECE cleaning costs depend on facility size, number of rooms, and cleaning frequency. Most Wellington ECE centres with daily cleaning fall in the $400–$900/month range. We provide a fixed quote following a free on-site visit with no obligation.
