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.

We love this daycare. I was very anxious when our 8m old started because he was very attached to me and had some health challenges. The director and the nursery teachers were so kind and supportive to us. Very quickly they became our village. All of the educators at the centre are wonderful and take the time to get to know the kids. Our son still gets upset at drop off sometimes, and the morning teachers know how much he loves it outside so they will take him out to cheer him up. We have to give a big thank you to the two nursery educators that our son absolutely adores, Miss M and Miss L. Every day we see photos of him having the best time doing so many fun activities that he wouldn't probably do at home. He has learnt so much, his speech, walking, waving and throwing a ball are all things they practice with him. We toured a few centres and so glad we picked this one. We could not be more grateful and appreciative of all the staff. 🫶🏻

We absolutely love this childcare centre! The outdoor area is fantastic and has everything children need to play, explore, and learn. The staff are kind, caring, patient, and always welcoming. The activities and learning experiences are diverse, engaging, and enriching, helping the children develop and grow every day. My daughter loves going to the centre each morning and often doesn’t want to go home at the end of the day, which says it all! Thank you to the wonderful team for your dedication, hard work, and genuine care. We truly appreciate everything you do for the children and families.

I have had all 3 of my children attend this centre since they were all in nursery. The teachers are passionate and caring and are really willing to work with us and what our children's needs, passions and interests are and support us through all the transitions that come through the baby, toddler and kindy years. There is a core group of educators that have been at the centre a number of years and have taught 2/3 of my children as they have made their way through the various classes and I am so glad to have had this continuity for each of my kids. The centre director is wonderfully hands on, experienced and passionate about supporting family and creating a mini family within the centre. I often see her actively helping out where hands are needed, especially at the critical time (drop off and pick up) and ensures that the staff feel supported. I also love that most of the staff have chosen child care as a career path and have a desire to ensure that the children have fun and learn in ways that support their development and interests not just ticking a curriculum box. I also love how the centre is full of all the children's art and that they are incredibly resourceful in how they engage with the children and their activities. This centre has become part of our family and I can only recommend this centre as a wonderful homey vibe for children to thrive.

My daughter has been attending this centre for close to four years and has just graduated from her kindy class. I couldn’t be happier that we chose Princeton Street—our experience over the years has been consistently positive. The staff are truly exceptional human beings who genuinely love what they do, and their care for the children is outstanding. The centre director, Mali, is proactive, professional, and always quick to respond to any queries. She is open to feedback and suggestions, which we have really appreciated. While I’m certainly happy to say goodbye to the weekly daycare bill, our family will genuinely miss coming to the centre and the wonderful connections we’ve built over the years. Thank you, Goodstart Princeton, for your amazing support and for the wonderful memories you’ve helped create for our daughter.
