Excellent

When we first went looking for a childcare center when our first child was going to start we visited a few, and at the time felt so uneasy this was until we went and toured Goodstart South road. From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed and at ease and the kids looked happy. Brittany the manager is exceptional and knows how to run a good team. As they say, you know management is good when staff have been there for many years. Everyone looks happy to be in the role. All the staff are professional, warm and dedicated to creating a positive and engaging environment for children to grow. Goodstart South road doesn't just have a childcare feel it feels more homely and more like a family. Knowing our children are in such a nurturing, caring and safe environment ticks the boxes for us.

My son has been attending Goodstart for over 1.5 years, and he’s had such a wonderful time there. He enjoys every single day, and seeing him thrive in all areas of his development makes us feel incredibly happy and grateful. The staff are attentive and provide personalised care with great attention to detail. They are always patient, kind, and genuinely care about the children. There’s a wide variety of activities throughout the day that keep the kids engaged and learning through play. We really appreciate the nutritious meals provided, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which take a lot of pressure off us as working parents. The team has been consistent with very stable staffing, which gives us peace of mind and helps our son feel secure and settled. We’re truly thankful to have found such a caring and supportive environment for our little one. It’s been a big part of his early years, and we can see how much he’s grown in confidence, language, and social skills.

Our son moved here from a different kinder and we couldn’t be happier! This place is absolutely amazing, it feels more like a family than a childcare. The educators are great and they even offer my son to come and join them for special events on the days he’s not usually attending kindy. Highly recommend this place!

A lovely centre and great staff.

My daughter has been going to Goodstart Bentliegh East since she was 11 months old, she's now almost 4. We have had the best experience in every room she’s been in. The staff are incredible, both the educators and the management team. They have supported us many times along the way. The children are supported with so many different activities, they can choose to play inside or outside and their interests are always encouraged. This centre truly demonstrate excellence in child care. I wholeheartedly recommend Goodstart Bentleigh East - South Road to any parent seeking a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for their child. Thank you everyone at Goodstart Bentleigh East - South Rd.

Can't recommend this childcare enough. This is the second time I have used this childcare center. Our first experience was with our older children in 2015, our two daughters, and again now in 2024. They have been so good with my speech-delayed 3-year-old son and my 1-and-a-half year old toddler. Thanks to the caring staff and amazing director, Brittany, my son is talking, and both are so comfortable and happy being in childcare. My husband and I are grateful for the attentiveness and love they give to our two boys daily. They have kept the same staff members since the first time we used their centre, and I feel comfortable knowing that my children are in their care.

My little one has been going to the Goodstart on South Rd since he was 1. The educators and staff have been absolutely amazing and helpful. My little one loves it there. The center director, Brittany has gone above and beyond to assist when we needed it.

One of the best childcare centres...! Staff members are so caring and performing an outstanding job to maintain a high quality learning environment. I always feel my son is in the best hand. I’m extremely thankful for that.

The educators are very kind and encouraging for the children. Our little toddler is always excited to go in and play with his educator. No bumps and bruises yet after 6mo so they must keep a keen eye on the kids!
