Putting children first since 1948
Children First is a not-for-profit child care organisation that has been an integral part of the community for 70 years. With seven childcare services, we take pride in creating an inclusive, positive, and stimulating environment where every child is encouraged to learn and have fun.
We are proud to say that of all the languages spoken in Blacktown, we have 54 represented in the children and families of our centres and 23 languages represented by our staff.
Our mission is to support and grow the potential of children, families and communities by providing a nurturing learning environment with expert educators to help your children thrive.
Let us put your children first. Enrol today!
