Goodstart Early Learning Toowoomba - Healy Street

Play is the order of the day of Goodstart Early Learning and the programs at the centre are grounded in a play-based approach. The educators embed teaching and learning into play experiences, helping the children to make sense of the world around them. This is how the children learn about how things work and develop important foundational relationships and skills. 

The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.

The educators recognise that every child is unique and that they bring their own needs, interests and strengths with them each day. The program is designed to be flexible to cater to these differing needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive at Goodstart.

I am pleased to introduce myself as the Centre Director at Goodstart Early Learning – Toowoomba Healy St.

My journey in early education began in Melbourne before leading me to the serene landscapes of Toowoomba in 2017. With over a decade of experience in early childhood education, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and fostering a love for learning. It's more than just a career—it's my passion, ignited by the boundless curiosity and potential of every child I encounter.

I believe in the innate competence of children as learners and strive to create environments where they can thrive and explore. My appreciation for the natural world runs deep, and we incorporate nature-based experiences into our curriculum, instilling a sense of wonder and respect for the environment.

In my role as Centre Director, I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and stimulating environment where children can grow, learn, and discover the magic of the world around them. Pop in today to meet our friendly team.
