A Family-Owned Centre Where Children Feel at Home
At Footprints, we’re more than just a childcare centre—we’re an extended family. Our caring team is passionate about creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where every child feels a sense of belonging and every family feels valued.
At Footprints Child Care Centre, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued and loved. As a proudly family-owned and operated childcare centre, we’ve created a warm, welcoming environment where children, families and educators build genuine relationships that last for years.
With a maximum of 35 children each day across our three classrooms, we’re able to provide the personalised care and attention that makes Footprints feel like a second home.
Our centre is open Monday to Friday from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, making it easier for families to balance work and family life.
Our experienced educators work closely with families to support every child’s learning, development and wellbeing while creating a nurturing environment where children can grow with confidence.
Building Lasting Relationships
One of the things families love most about Footprints is the consistency of our team.
Many of our educators have been with Footprints for over 13 years, allowing children to build secure relationships with familiar faces and giving families confidence that their children are cared for by experienced professionals who genuinely know them.
As a small centre, every educator knows every child—not just the children in their own room—which creates a true sense of belonging for everyone.
Meet the Owner – Christina Nnano
Christina has proudly owned Footprints Child Care Centre since 2013. Her vision has always been to create a warm, family-focused environment where children feel safe, supported and valued. Over the years, she has built a close-knit community where families are welcomed from the moment they walk through our doors and children are encouraged to learn, grow and thrive.
Christina’s connection to Footprints extends far beyond her role as Owner. For many years, she worked directly alongside the children and families as the centre’s Director and Early Childhood Teacher. Her experience within the rooms and as part of the centre’s day-to-day life helped shape the values, relationships and family-focused approach that remain at the heart of Footprints today. Since becoming a mother herself, Christina’s connection to the values behind Footprints has taken on even greater meaning. She understands firsthand the importance of knowing your child is surrounded by educators who genuinely know, care for and value them.
While Christina’s role has evolved over the years, she remains a proud and involved Owner of Footprints. The centre’s day-to-day operations are now led by our experienced leadership team, supported by our dedicated educators who continue to bring Christina’s original vision to life. Many of our educators have been part of the Footprints family for over 13 years, providing children and families with the consistency, experience and genuine care that our centre is known for.
Meet the Director – Bianca Carroll
Bianca has been a dedicated part of the Footprints family for 13 years, beginning her journey as a casual educator before progressing to part-time and then full-time roles. Over the years, she has grown alongside Footprints, building strong and lasting relationships with our children, families and educators.
Today, Bianca leads Footprints as our Centre Director and Early Childhood Teacher, while continuing to work directly with the children in our Busy Bees Room and leading the educational program. She loves being actively involved in the children’s learning and development and values the close relationships that come from being part of a small, family-focused centre.
For Bianca, Footprints is more than just a workplace. Members of her own family, including her niece and nephew, have been part of the Footprints family, making her connection to the centre even more special.
After 13 years, Footprints truly feels like Bianca’s second home. She is proud to lead a centre where children and families are genuinely known, valued and cared for.
