Friendly and supportive staff. Clean and hygienic centre . Meal plans for the kids are excellent.

Fantastic centre with caring staff, great facilities, and a wonderful learning environment. Our child loves going there and always comes home happy and excited to share what they’ve learned. Couldn’t ask for a better place.

We’ve had at least one child attending Goodstart Melrose Park at some stage since 2017, each one progressing from Nursery all the way to preschool, and it has been such a valuable and rewarding time for them. The staff (too many good ones to name) have been great to deal with throughout, and we have appreciated the open communication. We definitely aren’t having any more kids but if we did we would gladly have them attend Goodstart Melrose Park again. Thanks to each carer who’s been involved in our boys’ education here, it will be bittersweet when our youngest one “graduates” in the middle of next year.

My son has been attending Goodstart Melrose Park since Jan 2025, and the centre and staff have been nothing but wonderful. All the staff are warm, welcoming, and supportive. I am confident leaving my son in the care of the educators as I know he is well taken care of, and he is always happy spending time there. I look forward to the daily Storypark updates to see what experience the children have done that day. Its nice to have an update on my son while im at work. I would definitely recommend this centre to anyone looking for a safe, supportive environment for their children.

Thank you so much to Jasmine and the team. Henry has really enjoyed his time at childcare. You have prepared him for school extremely well, thank you

My child joined this goodstart early learning center 3 months ago. Still she has not settle in. She cries all day. No one taking effort to help her settle. Very poor service. Would not recommend this centre to anyone.

I sent my child to Good Start basis recommendations from one of my colleague she used to often share her child's activities , development and toilet training experience with me .I thought this place would really help my child .I chose Good Start at Melrose Park because it was closer to my house . During the tour there was a very high bar set of what activities are done ,food (we could tell them and they try and customise the food ),nappy training etc,Story Park app etc .My child started at pre kindy ,within few months of the child settling in the teacher moved out ,then the director ,then there was a swap in teachers , frequent changes is a thing at this place. I was advised by an educator to start sending home food as my child did not eat there. No one made an effort to introduce the child to any food being served at the centre . When and incident would occur the Incident reports from each educator had a different story ,when confronted I was told it was a mistake,with an apology . While I understand toilet training should start at home there was no effort made to encourage the child. When we started toilet training my child at home and asked them to help set the routine while my child was there they asked me to sendthe child in nappies till he/she is ready(all he/she needed was to be timed and reminded to go) When I asked why I did not see my child's photo during activities responses are we can't be clicking pictures always ,but your child participates . In Kindergarten you would expect some training on school readiness ,but don't expect that here .If your child is not interested in the routine no additional effort was made to bring them in and get them interested . Overall very disappointed with the whole experience !!!!!!!
