Stunning outdoor spaces for natural exploration and sensory learning.
Tailored care with a strong focus on secure attachments and family partnerships.
Nutritious meals provided daily, catering to dietary needs.

Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Mona Vale

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Mona Vale is nestled beneath native gum trees in a peaceful residential area, close to schools, shops, and transport links. Our centre features spacious indoor areas that encourage self-led play, decision-making, and social interactions. These open onto our beautiful outdoor spaces, fostering seamless indoor-outdoor exploration throughout the day.

Our curriculum follows the Early Years’ Learning Framework, tailored to each child's individual needs and interests. We place a strong emphasis on building capable and confident learners, encouraging children to explore nature in a safe but stimulating environment with natural elements like logs, tyres, and water play. Messy play and sensory experiences are embraced to deepen their connection with the world around them.

Relationships are at the heart of everything we do. From the moment you join us, we work with families to provide personalised care, believing that parents are a child’s first and best teacher. We foster secure attachments through a key educator approach, promoting the foundations of lifelong partnerships.

We keep families engaged through Storypark, regular family events, and newsletters. This allows us to maintain open communication and deliver a learning programme that reflects each child's unique strengths and cultural diversity.

Our on-site cook prepares healthy, nutritious meals every day, and we cater to allergies and special dietary needs.

Curriculum and programs

The educators at Goodstart Early Learning follow an evidence-based curriculum that aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework. Informed by world-leading research, practices and techniques, the curriculum encourages the children’s natural curiosity and engages them in their learning journey.

As the children move through the different rooms in the centre, the curriculum evolves with them. The educators set goals for the children and celebrate as they reach their milestones. At every stage, the educators are tailoring the curriculum and goals to each child’s individual needs.

The curriculum involves different types of learning experiences and styles. From child-led learning to sessions guided by educators, the children participate in small and large group sessions as well as individual play. Most importantly, the children learn through play, developing social skills, confidence and independence in addition to more formal academic skills.

Meet the team

Goodstart Early Learning employs qualified and skilled educators who are dedicated to making a difference to the children in their care. The centre employs people who are empathetic and compassionate, with a nurturing disposition and a passion for care. Working collaboratively as a team, the educators display qualities such as positivity, kindness and, most importantly, a desire to help every child thrive.

The educators hold relevant qualifications, including the Kindergarten and Preschool Program teachers who are university qualified. The educators are lifelong learners, participating in regular and ongoing professional development to enhance their skills. They are encouraged to upskill, learning about the latest research and thinking in the sector. They can then bring this knowledge back to the centre to share with their colleagues for the benefit of the children.
