My son has been attending Good Start on Bourke Street for over a year now. He has been absolutely thriving there. The educators are extremely caring, compassionate with a world of knowledge. I highly recommend Good Start Bourke Street.

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.

I transitioned my eldest to Goodstart Burke Street from our city daycare when I was pregnant with my twins in 2021. Sarah and her team made the transition smooth and easy for me as a soon to be busy mum of three. When my twins started and I went back to work I was supported with drop offs and pick ups as staff assisted me with my children getting safely into the car. I built relationship’s with familiar staff who were kind and caring everyday. In my experience staff truly make an effort to get to know the children they are caring for and I feel at ease as a mum - the girls always have a wonderful day and have made beautiful friends with carers and children in their rooms. My eldest has continued her care moving into the 4 year old kinder room at Goodstart and is now more than ready to start her Primary School journey next year. My twins have blossomed and formed strong bonds with their carers. My experience has been positive and welcoming and would recommend Burke Street to all parents needing access to childcare in Warragul. 💛✨🌼

Response from the owner 16 Apr 2024
