First Steps Childcare (Kindergarten)
First Steps is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Chichester College Group and is one of the largest childcare providers in West Sussex. With over 25 years of experience, we are dedicated to providing our children with a safe, secure, stimulating, and happy environment.
Open 51 weeks of the year, we provide flexible, full daycare for young babies from birth to children ready to start school. We have an Early Years Practitioner at each setting, dedicated rooms for children of different ages, and carefully planned resources to enable every child to thrive.
The First Steps group was established in 1990. Since then, a lot has changed, but our mission hasn’t. We aim to provide the perfect place to play, learn and make friends. Our group has three nurseries: Chichester, Brinsbury & Worthing.
