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.

Kimberly Fernandez21 days ago

Our experience at First Grammar has been exceptional. The staff are incredibly organised, very caring and always show great concern for your child. My son has thoroughly enjoyed his time here and has learnt so much along the way. Ms. Agata and Ms. Harshita must be commended for their wonderful work in the nursery. Your child will be taken very good of by all the educators and you will have no need to worry about their time spent at First Grammar. We especially appreciated being informed via the centre app on every aspect with regard to the care being given to our son, from constant updates on nappy changes to what and how much he has eaten throughout the day. A highlight of our day is reading the Daily Snapshot from his room, which includes a detailed description of all the activities conducted during the day along with photos of the children enjoying themselves. Without a doubt we would recommend this centre to anyone looking to put their child into daycare.
