We’re so happy with our little girl’s kindergarten experience! A big thank you to Nav for the care and support she gives our daughter, and to Pene in management for creating such a welcoming and supportive environment. We truly appreciate everything you both do! ❤️

I honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience at Children First Mernda!
Having a 5-month-old and a 3-year-old in care, finding somewhere that feels warm, nurturing and genuinely invested in your children means absolutely everything.
Nisha, the Nursery Room Leader, is just beautiful! The love, patience and care she brings to the nursery is so reassuring, especially when I am trusting someone with my premi baby. It’s those little things that make such a big difference.
My 3-year-old absolutely loves the learning experiences, and the STEAM Studio is such an incredible addition! I love seeing this centre that encourages curiosity, creativity and hands-on exploration. We’re already so excited for the kinder years ahead!
And can we talk about the food?! The meals are absolutely amazing! It’s so lovely knowing my children are enjoying delicious, nutritious food every day.
There’s something really special about a centre where you can see how much thought and effort goes into giving children the best possible start.
Thank you to the wonderful team at Children First Mernda for creating such a beautiful place for my little people to learn and grow. ❤️

I have nothing but amazing things to say regarding Children First, the staff in the centre are amazing, super accommodating and really understanding. I feel at ease leaving my child with her teachers knowing she is safe, cared for and loved. The centre has such amazing facilities, and my child comes home daily with the biggest smile on her face.
