State Government Approved Programs
Our high-quality, play based preschool curriculum is delivered by Bachelor qualified Early Childhood Teachers. Our teachers tailor their programs to ensure all children develop the confidence and social and emotional skills needed for a smooth transition to school. Through play, our Early Childhood Teachers facilitate children’s learning of important language, literacy, numeracy and creative skills.
Benefits of Goodstart Kindergarten/Preschool 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.
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.
Goodstart Early Learning uses the StoryPark app to connect with parents throughout the day. The educators upload photos and stories to the secure app, which parents can access anytime and anywhere to track their child’s progress.
The approach at the centre is very much based around partnership between families and educators. The educators work with the parents and carers to build strong relationships. They develop trust so the children can feel safe and secure while at the centre. Parents are also encouraged to share their insights and feedback with educators to add depth to the relationship.
The educators observe the children every day and tailor the program around their observations. They share these with parents, so they can feel connected to their child’s progress and also provide feedback that will further enhance their child’s learning experience.
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.

We have had such a fantastic experience with Good Start Early Learning Meadow Heights. All my children have attended, and I couldn’t be happier with the care they’ve received. The educators create such a nourishing and protective environment and I’m very grateful for the positive start they’ve given my children!
Thank you for your lovely review, Diane. We’re so pleased to hear your family has had such a positive experience over the years. It means a lot to know your children have felt supported in a caring and nurturing environment. We truly appreciate your kind words and are grateful to have been part of your children’s early learning journey.

We have had a wonderful experience at Goodstart Early Learning Meadow Heights. The management team, Crystal, Rim, and Esra, always went above and beyond to support our family. The educators are warm, patient, and truly care about the children. They communicate clearly and keep parents informed about daily activities and each child’s development. I genuinely planned to enrol my toddler here as well. However, after an altercation with Lena in front of the children over being two minutes late, even though the centre permits late pickups with a fee, I feel I have no choice but to look elsewhere. The interaction was upsetting and could have been handled more professionally. I raised the matter with Crystal, who assured me it would be reviewed and addressed. I believe an apology or mediation would have been appropriate given the situation. Aside from this incident, the centre has felt like a second home for my children.

I had my two children attend this childcare for the past 4 years now and I still look back on our experience so fondly. From the moment you walk in, you’re always welcomed with warm smiles and such a genuine, caring atmosphere. The educators truly make you feel like part of a family. The centre was always very clean, hygienic, and well looked after, which gave me so much peace of mind as a parent. Most importantly, my children felt happy and comfortable going in each day, which says everything. I’m so grateful for the love, care, and support they showed my kids during their time there. Such a beautiful place with beautiful people.
