At first, we weren’t too sure — you know how it is when you’re leaving a great daycare and moving to a new one closer to home. It’s always the unknown. But one thing I can say about Goodstart Cheltenham is that the educators there truly show integrity and genuine care. It’s a smaller centre, and that’s what makes it special — it feels more personal, like the educators really connect with each child. That’s something rare to find, not just in daycare centres but anywhere. Dona, Gaya, and Vani, who work closely with our son, are absolutely amazing. We’re so happy he enjoys going there and feels so comfortable and supported every day. We love this centre and highly recommend it to any parent looking for a place with long-term educators and consistent, caring staff who truly put the children first. Read more

We’ve been part of this wonderful daycare centre for over four years with both of our children, and we are very happy with the experience. The facilities are fantastic - especially the outdoor area. There’s water play, vegetable gardens, climbing frames, a sandpit, trikes and so much more to keep the kids engaged and active. The centre has a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a lovely sense of community. The centre director, co-director and administrative assistant are outstanding - their dedication and professionalism really make a difference. The educators are caring, kind and attentive. Our kids love going each day and greet their educators with a big hug every morning — which says it all. Communication is also excellent. The centre keeps us regularly updated with photos and messages about what the children are doing. It’s reassuring and helps us feel connected to their day-to-day experiences. We feel lucky to have found this centre and couldn’t recommend it more highly! Read more

We've had kids at Goodstart for a couple of years, and chose the center after touring several for it's large rooms and outdoor area. We have always been impressed by the quality of educators (many of whom have been there a long time) and found them to really care about our little people. Last year there were some new faces brought into the center leadership, who've made a positive impact on how the center is run. Some things are a bit old school (ie you won't get nap times uploaded to an app) which initially took a bit for us to adjust to after coming from another center but after we got used to checking the book, I don't miss it. Very happy to recommend! Read more

Such a warm and nurturing community that genuinely cares about the welfare and development of our child - in moving from another local childcare centre to Goodstart, we could not be happier with how they’ve helped in our daughter’s transition and how easily she has settled in.
