About Goodstart Early Learning Berrimah

Goodstart Early Learning Berrimah provides a welcoming, family-focused environment where children can learn through play, build friendships and develop confidence and independence. Conveniently located near Stuart Highway, Robertson Barracks and the Peter McAulay Centre, our centre is part of a diverse local community.

Our long-standing team includes four team members who have been with the centre for 15, 14, 7 and 5 years, providing consistency and familiar relationships for children and families. We also have two Bachelor-qualified Kindergarten teachers and educators who speak Vietnamese, Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, Greek, Gujarati, Hindi, Japanese, Mandarin and Punjabi.

Children have access to a large natural outdoor play space with a treehouse, swings and a pool for children aged 2–5 years to use each week. Our community includes families from Australian, Indian, Nepalese, Vietnamese, Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Filipino backgrounds.

We offer occasional incursions and excursions, generally for Kindergarten children, including experiences such as Desert Blue story time and police visits. We also hold multiple family-inclusive events throughout the year, creating opportunities for families and children to connect with their community.

Families can stay connected through Storypark, while our onsite qualified cook prepares fresh and nutritious meals each day. Meals, nappies, wipes, cot linen and sunscreen are provided at no extra charge.

Kindergarten/Preschool Programs

Kindergarten/Preschool 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:

  • Our programs are planned and led by qualified and experienced Early Childhood Teachers, in accordance with the Early Years Learning Framework
  • Our programs have the tick of approval, meaning they meet (and exceed) Government guidelines around learning in the year before school
  • Strong connections with local schools support our extensive transition to school programs
  • We offer greater flexibility and convenience for busy families with longer opening hours, five days a week, 52 weeks of the year.
  • We offer 9-hour, 10-hour and all-day sessions.
  • Nutritious meals are provided throughout the day, so there’s no need to pack lunch boxes.
Curriculum and programs

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.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

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.

My son attends preschool at Goodstart Berrimah, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful care and support he receives from his educators.<br><br>He is very shy and hardly spoke with his educators at his previous childcare centre. Since joining Goodstart Berrimah, his confidence and communication have improved so much. He now loves going to the centre every morning without any fuss, which means so much to us as parents.<br><br>The centre has a lovely, welcoming environment and caring staff. A special thank you to Ms Lisa, who is always flexible, helpful and willing to go above and beyond to support families. The director and assistant director are also very professional, approachable and supportive.<br><br>Thank you to the whole team for helping our son feel safe, happy and confident. We truly appreciate everything you do! ❤️

Considering our family had a very negative experience with another childcare centre, choosing a new one was something we were quite nervous about. From the very beginning, this centre has exceeded our expectations.The transition has been smooth, welcoming, and reassuring for both our child and us as parents. Both my partner and I absolutely adore the staff and appreciate the thoughtful systems and routines they have in place, which create a safe, structured, and nurturing environment.<br>The biggest sign that we made the right choice is how excited our son is to attend each day. He has made so many friends, talks about daycare at home, and genuinely looks forward to going. Seeing him happy, confident, and eager to learn has given us so much peace of mind as parents.<br><br>We are incredibly grateful for the care, support, and dedication of the educators and would highly recommend this centre to other families.

Goodstart Berrimah provides a safe, clean, and engaging environment with plenty of activities that support learning and development. I love that they encourage both structured play and free exploration—it’s wonderful to see my child coming home excited to share what they learned, whether it’s a new song, craft, or skill. Communication has been excellent. I always receive updates and photos about my child’s day, which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. The educators are approachable and responsive, and I feel confident knowing my child is in capable, nurturing hands. Most importantly, my child is happy here. They’ve built friendships, grown in confidence, and are always excited to go to childcare in the morning. As a parent, that is all I could ask for. I would highly recommend Goodstart Berrimah to any family looking for a loving, supportive, and high-quality early learning environment.
