First Steps Learning Academy Liverpool is a privately owned family-run business that provides early childhood care and education for children aged 2 to 5 years. Located near the Liverpool CBD, the recently renovated centre offers a bright and vibrant environment with two oversized rooms that balance modern facilities with a traditional learning curriculum. The academy’s focus on creating culturally inclusive and diverse learning spaces is evident in their indoor environments, which feature dedicated areas for art, music, reading, drama, and sensory play. Additionally, the School Readiness Program prepares children for the transition into primary school through stimulating and engaging curriculum.
At First Steps Learning Academy, the educators are fully qualified in early education and understand that each child is unique, requiring specialized attention and learning programs. The academy’s philosophy emphasizes collaboration with parents to provide individualized care and education that considers each child’s needs, cultural background, and heritage. By fostering strong partnerships with families, the academy aims to create a harmonious environment that encourages children to explore their interests, abilities, and skills while promoting cultural inclusion, sustainable practices, and a healthy lifestyle.
First Steps Learning Academy partners with Kids Gourmet Food (KGF) Australia to offer healthy, wholesome, and nutritional meals and snacks for the children. The academy’s use of Storypark, an online network, allows parents to gain deeper insights into their child’s learning experiences and actively engage with their progress. By acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia, the academy demonstrates its commitment to respecting Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures, and Elders. Through a focus on creating a safe, caring, and stimulating environment, First Steps Learning Academy supports children in taking their first steps towards a successful educational journey.
