About Goodstart Early Learning West Ryde - Winbourne Street

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre West Ryde, located in a charming heritage building, offers a boutique care environment for children. Catering to 34 children daily, we provide play-based learning for children aged six weeks to five years.

Our team of dedicated educators keeps children at the heart of everything we do, embracing the key educator approach. Sam, our experienced nursery educator, supports families as they adjust to the care environment, while our university-qualified teacher leads the educational programs.

We follow the Early Years Learning Framework, creating stimulating, play-based curriculums tailored to each child's interests and strengths, ensuring they are ready for school.

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.

An amazing day care, Iam so happy I had taken my time to look for a day care which took me 3months in total. Iam very impressed with the educators and centre. Both my kids have shown so much independence and growth since they started. I feel confident of their safety sending them to this day care. Both my kids love their educators and always want to go back to classes which is a telling sign. Definitely recommend to any mum seeking a place for their kids. My 3rd child will also be going here once he is old enough. ❤️

We have two boys at Goodstart West Ryde after moving from another centre in the area. Our experience here has been nothinh short of wonderful. The educators here are exactly who you want to care for your children - each and every one of them show genuine care, concern and interest in your child. The staff know you by name and there is unrivalled continuity of care. We feel safe leaving our children here, which is most important to us, especially as a rainbow family.<br>Thank you to Goodstart and all their wonderful staff for creating such an amazing early learning community for our family.
