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. 

Meet the team

Goodstart Werribee has been an amazing centre for my 2 children. Since moving centres to Goodstart last year we have only positive things to say about the centre itself, the educators and the community feel the centre provides. The educators have been incredible in caring for our children in both the nursery and toddler/pre-kinder rooms. The growth in their learning and development has been wonderful to watch and they love going to daycare. Thanks to all the wonderful staff at Goodstart for providing such a beautiful environment for our children to thrive in.

All the carers are absolutely wonderful, they learn all the children's behaviours and best way to look after, nurture and educate our kids. Its a small daycare centre, but I've found that Goodstart Werribee has had a positive impact in all aspects of my child's growth and learning.

I cannot recommend Goodstart Werribee enough, my daughter has attended for nearly four years and everyone at the centre has been nothing but wonderful and supportive of our family. In all our time here there has been little if any staff turnover which speaks volumes to how the centre is operated and how everyone is made to feel like family. Thank you to everyone at Goodstart Werribee for the last four years we are going to miss you

Goodstart Werribee is a lovely small centre with kind, caring educators who really know the children. Many of the staff have been there a long time, which says a lot about the centre and the strong relationships they build. Being a smaller centre means children get more individual attention and a more personal, calm environment. The educators are thoughtful in what they do, and it’s clear the children are happy, supported, and well cared for.
