Warm, friendly - attentive staff! Absolutely love the team here at Watsonia GS! We are very lucky to have our child attend here!

We moved our son to this centre two years ago from another local service, and the team was incredibly welcoming from the start. He settled in quickly and has thrived ever since. A year later, we enrolled our baby in the nursery room and had the exact same positive experience. Both of our children are happy, engaged, and genuinely enjoy their days at the centre. The educators are warm, caring, and clearly passionate about what they do. Our son is now in the kinder room, but still loves visiting the other rooms to say hello to all the educators, which really says a lot about the connections he’s built. The leadership team is supportive and responsive, always taking the time to listen to any concerns and help us navigate challenges. They also supported us through the entire NDIS process for our son, which made a huge difference for our family. One of the things we value most is that all staff seem to know all the children, which creates such a strong sense of community and a real family feel. It can be hard to trust people with your own kids but we feel very lucky to be part of this centre and its so nice to know they are safe and cared for.

Goodstart Watsonia has been such a brilliant centre. With a older child and moving my younger one around a few other centres I must say this has been our favourite. A great mix of educators all super engaged with the children. The management is also very accomodating and you'll let feel judged. My daughter who really struggles with change has become so much more settled.

We couldn’t be happier with Goodstart Watsonia. The team here are so wonderful, excellent at communicating and just lovely people.

Our little girl has been at Goodstart Watsonia for just over a year now, starting in the baby room and now in the toddler room. She absolutely loves it. The staff are incredibly kind, caring and genuinely loving and it really shows… She talks about her educators all the time at home and is always happy to be there. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and feel very grateful to have found such a wonderful place for her.

We have been attending Goodstart Watsonia over a year now, the management team are very welcoming and friendly since the very first day stepped into Goodstart. The leadership team are able to assist with any suggestions and questions. Been here for a while I can see the strong connections my son has made with staff members, who are very nurturing caring and generally interested in the best of my child. Also making little friends. Furthermore the safety and support goodstart provides for a positive outcome and growth for each child. My son comes home most of the time happy and explaining things has learnt and gained from kinder. The meals are fantastic and my mind at ease knowing my child is looked after. Thank you

Goodstart Watsonia is absolutely fantastic. Such a wonderful team! Can’t fault anything about the centre. They take care of all the kids like they are their own, the compassion and love my son has been shown has been nothing short of fantastic! From the centre managers, to the educators, to the chef and beyond everyone goes out of their way to make the kids feel comfortable and welcomed. Communication is wonderful also, if my son isn’t there for a day for some reason and myself or my wife forget to call, they call us just to make sure my son is okay as they haven’t seen him. Every single person at Goodstart Watsonia is what childcare is all about 11 out of 10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My child went here for 1 year and it was a great experience, the staff were so caring for my son and also supported me so well as I found it really hard to send him to childcare. My son was well cared for and we never had any issues.

My youngest has been at Goodstart Watsonia since not long after they opened and it has been a very positive experience. Every staff member we have interacted with has been kind, caring and genuinely interested in my son. It has been wonderful to watch him build special relationships with those involved in his care. Every time we drop him, it is a comfort to know the team is capable and will ensure he has a good day. Leadership have also been amazing from the very first tour to today, available and approachable and again, so genuine in their interactions. Thank you Natasha, Caitlyn and all of the team at Goodstart Watsonia.

We loved sending our daughter here - all educators are welcoming and always accommodating. Highly recommended.
