Our early education child care services and centres

Children First is a community-based, not-for-profit organisation that provides early childhood services across the Blacktown local government area. Established in 1948, Children First began as a local mothers’ group seeking early childhood services for their children and has grown into a thriving early education community.

Our services include Preschools, Long Day Care, Vacation Care and Outside School Hours Care. Operating at six sites, these services educate and care for about 700 children every week.

We are proud to say that of the 60-plus languages spoken in Blacktown, more than 50 are spoken by the families who access our centres and more than 20 languages are represented among our staff members.

One of the benefits of being enrolled at Children First, is the connections to our range of easy-to-access family services that are enriching, supportive and help your family thrive. Visit our Family Services page for more information.

Children First is a service provided by Growing Potential Ltd. which provides a range of services for children, families, and educational professionals throughout the Blacktown local government area and beyond.
