We are very happy with our experience at this early learning centre. As parents, it gives us great peace of mind knowing our child is in such a caring, safe, and nurturing environment every day. The educators are incredibly kind, patient, and supportive, and they genuinely care about each child’s development and wellbeing. 😊 The centre provides a wonderful range of learning activities that support children’s creativity, communication, and social skills. We love seeing the different art projects, play-based learning experiences, and outdoor activities our child participates in. It’s clear that the educators put a lot of effort into planning engaging experiences for the children. Communication with families is also excellent. We receive regular updates and photos, which makes us feel connected to our child’s day. The environment is always clean, welcoming, and well-organised. We truly appreciate the dedication of the staff and would highly recommend this centre to any parents looking for a warm and supportive place for their child to learn and grow. 🌱

As a grandparent, it means so much to feel confident and happy about where your grandchildren spend their days, and we truly feel that with Goodstart Preston Dalgety Street. Since the leadership at the centre has changed, we have noticed a really positive difference. The team seems much more engaged, motivated and genuinely happy to come to work, and that energy flows through to the children. It’s clear the educators care deeply about what they do. We have also seen a noticeable increase in the learning experiences being offered. The activities always look thoughtful and purposeful, and it’s evident that the children are encouraged to explore, learn and grow every day. Most importantly, the centre feels warm and welcoming like a second home for our grandchildren. We are so grateful for the wonderful team and the care they provide. Highly recommend to any families looking for a nurturing and supportive early learning environment.
