Child Care & Education
First Steps Parnell is a unique, urban, multicultural, quality childcare centre located off The Strand on the fringe of the CBD, Britomart and Parnell. Our location provides convenient access to Auckland’s business district and surrounding apartments.
Our centre offers an oasis in the city where children are cared for from 3 months to 5 years.
Our centre provides:
• A planned integrated programme that reflects children’s current interests, strengths and dispositions in daily activities and experiences
• Qualified or in-training teachers who are open, friendly and welcoming who extend children’s learning to develop each child’s individual potential through the planning and assessment system
• A centre that works on building high self-esteem, social skills and self-help skills, that encourages a love of learning through supporting creativity and imagination
• Quality teacher to child ratios with an emphasis on high teacher to child responsive interactions
• Nutritious healthy meals prepared on site daily catering to all dietary requirements
• A unique Be School Ready initiative that has been developed to ensure that children leave the centre as confident, capable learners, prepared for the next step in their education journey.
