What every parent near DLF Phase 3 wants to know first

Is it close enough for the daily run?

The centre is in Sector 24, inside DLF Phase 3, opposite Narayana Hospital, a short drive from DLF Cyber City, Cyber Hub, DLF Downtown and Nathupur. For families in the surrounding blocks, the morning drop takes minutes, not a commute. If you work in Cyber City or Udyog Vihar, pick-up can fit around the end of your workday instead of cutting into it. See the areas we serve for approximate drive times.

Will my child be safe here?

Classrooms and play zones are covered by live CCTV streaming, so you are not left guessing about your child's day. Batches are capped at 15 children, washrooms are built at child height, and meals come from our own kitchen rather than being brought in. Our facilities and safety page walks through each space.

Can I talk to someone right now?

Yes. Call [[PHONE1]] or [[PHONE2]], or send us a WhatsApp message. Day care runs Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, and preschool classes run Monday to Friday, 8:45 AM to 12:45 PM, so you can see everything in person before you decide.

From 6 months to 10 years

Preschool classes and day care under one roof

Every program runs in batches of up to 15 children. Preschool classes last four hours, from 8:45 AM to 12:45 PM, and day care can stretch from three to nine hours to match your working day. That means a toddler starting in Play Group and an older sibling coming in after school can be picked up from the same gate at the end of the day.

Why families in Sector 24 and nearby choose Discover First Step

Choosing a preschool in DLF Phase 3 usually comes down to everyday details: whether the food is real food, whether children move enough, and whether you hear from the teacher without having to chase. This is what we have built around those details.

Transparency and care

  • Live CCTV streaming, so you can check in during the day.
  • A strong adult-to-child ratio, with every batch capped at 15.
  • Structured parent–teacher interaction: planned conversations, not a rushed word at the gate.
  • 100% nutritious in-house food, prepared in the centre's own kitchen.

Learning with intent

  • Thoughtfully designed lesson plans for every age group.
  • A Montessori Lab for hands-on, self-paced work.
  • Self-defence training, introduced in an age-appropriate way to build body confidence.
  • NEP and NCF aligned teaching through the Dynamically Balanced Curriculum.
  • A therapy centre on site for children with special needs and gifted children.

Room to move

  • Optional evening classes in sports and dance.
  • Gross Motor Play Zone for balance, climbing and coordination.
  • Ninja Pit, Wall Climbing Zone and Trampoline Park for high-energy, supervised play.
  • A dance room for rhythm, movement and simple routines.

A curriculum that balances play, people skills and early academics

Teaching follows the Discover First Step Dynamically Balanced Curriculum, aligned with India's National Education Policy (NEP) and National Curriculum Framework (NCF). It rests on three pillars, and each week of the lesson plan makes room for all of them.

  • Creative Thinking

    Art, dance, pretend play and open questions that ask children to imagine, not just repeat.

  • Self & Social Intelligence

    Taking turns, naming feelings, making friends and handling small frustrations with a teacher's help.

  • Academic Mastery

    Early literacy, numbers, patterns and observation, introduced at a pace each child can hold on to.

The brand's ethos fits in three words: Learn, Explore, Discover. See how the curriculum shapes a typical day.

For working parents

Full-day daycare that keeps pace with a Cyber City workday

If your office is in DLF Cyber City, DLF Downtown or Udyog Vihar, a preschool that finishes at noon only solves half the problem. Our day care and creche runs from 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Monday to Saturday, with flexible durations of three to nine hours. Infants from six months are welcome, and children up to ten years can join after their school day.

Children eat freshly prepared meals from our kitchen, rest in a dedicated sleeping area and spend their afternoons in screen-free, activity-based play. GPS-enabled transport for pick-up and drop is also available, so ask about your route when you call.

Both. We run preschool classes from Play Group to UKG, plus Grade 1 and Grade 2, alongside a day care and creche for children from six months to ten years. Children can attend one or the other, and you can ask the team about combining them.

Yes, and we encourage it. You can visit on any weekday while classes and day care are running, and Saturdays work too, when day care is open but the preschool classes are not. Call or WhatsApp us to pick a time that suits you.
