About First Grammar Merrylands

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Merrylands, Merrylands West, Woodpark, South Wenworthville and Parramatta.

We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.

Our Learning Environments

Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:

  • Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
  • Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
  • Preschool (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.

We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.

Innovative Early Learning Programs

Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:

  • Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
  • Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
  • Personalised learning plans for each child.
  • Local school connections.

We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

My child has been attending this childcare from the age of 3 to 5, moving from the toddler room to the preschool room, and has had a wonderful experience. All the educators are kind, patient, and friendly. They have supported his learning and development so well, and he has learned so much during his time here. We have seen him grow into a more confident, outgoing, and happy child. He has made many good friends here and always looks forward to going to childcare every day. At home, he often tells me about what happens at school and happily to share with us. He hugs friends every day when arriving at and leaving childcare, which shows how happy and comfortable they feel here. We are truly grateful for all the care and support from the team, especially Priya, Sarah, Saru, Ruchita and Jerina. Thank you for everything you have done for my son.❤️
