We are incredibly happy to be part of the Goodstart The Boulevard Albany Creek Family. From the very first day, we felt warmly welcomed and supported by Miss Lauren, Miss Kristie, and their fantastic team, making our experience truly positive. Our daughter loves attending each day, which is a testament to the nurturing and caring environment created by all the educators. Special thanks to Miss Cherie and Miss Yas from the nursery for their consistent care, love, and support, which have greatly contributed to her happiness and confidence. We also appreciate Miss Jo, Miss Amanda, and Miss Maddi from the Toddlers room for their care, compassion, and patience in their daily involvement with her. The dedication of Miss Taylah, Miss Brooke, Miss Alex, Miss Abi, and Miss Steph also shines through in the joy and confidence she displays. Furthermore, we are grateful to Miss Jenny for preparing nutritious meals that support her growth and development. Overall, the team’s warmth, dedication, and professionalism make this a wonderful place for children to learn and flourish. Highly recommended!

State Government Approved 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:
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.
Play is the order of the day of Goodstart Early Learning and the programs at the centre are grounded in a play-based approach. The educators embed teaching and learning into play experiences, helping the children to make sense of the world around them. This is how the children learn about how things work and develop important foundational relationships and skills.
The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.
The educators recognise that every child is unique and that they bring their own needs, interests and strengths with them each day. The program is designed to be flexible to cater to these differing needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive at Goodstart.
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.
Goodstart Early Learning employs qualified and skilled educators who are dedicated to making a difference to the children in their care. The centre employs people who are empathetic and compassionate, with a nurturing disposition and a passion for care. Working collaboratively as a team, the educators display qualities such as positivity, kindness and, most importantly, a desire to help every child thrive.
The educators hold relevant qualifications, including the Kindergarten and Preschool Program teachers who are university qualified. The educators are lifelong learners, participating in regular and ongoing professional development to enhance their skills. They are encouraged to upskill, learning about the latest research and thinking in the sector. They can then bring this knowledge back to the centre to share with their colleagues for the benefit of the children.

My 2 kids attend here, my little boy has been through most of the rooms and all of the staff are wonderful and caring. My little one has just started in the nursery 6 months ago and it has been lovely getting to know Cherie and Yasmin who look after all the bubs. They are both so attentive and supportive. We feel like we are apart of a big family at this centre, we’re very lucky.

We have had an outstanding experience at Goodstart The Boulevard, especially with the incredible staff in the Toddlers and Nursery rooms. Miss Lauren, Miss Amanda, Miss Brooke, Miss Cherie, and Miss Yas have gone above and beyond in creating a safe, secure, and loving environment for our child. Their dedication to building strong, nurturing relationships with the children is truly heartwarming. Our child looks forward to seeing them every day, and it’s clear that the staff genuinely care for each and every child in their care. The communication from these ladies, with parents is exceptional. We always feel well-informed about our child’s progress and daily activities. The staff are always approachable and eager to discuss any questions or concerns we may have. We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our child receives at Goodstart The Boulevard. Thank you, Miss Lauren, Miss Amanda, Miss Brooke, Miss Cherie, and Miss Yas, for your hard work and dedication. You are truly appreciated!
