We love Goodstart Kensington! Our children have attended since they turned 1, and the educators have been so wonderful. They make sure every child feels welcome from the moment they arrive, with educators and friends calling out hello so excitedly, making it feel like a little family. Drop offs were so much easier when my children went together as siblings are invited into eachother’s room and play together throughout the day. The layout of the centre is very good as it is leafy, quiet and shady, and children are encouraged to play outside in the fresh air as much as possible, which was very important to me. There is a chef onsite who, we have been told, is a much better cook than we are! The educators go above and beyond for the children, celebrating graduations, birthdays and festivals with so much effort, and this makes every child feel a strong sense of belonging. It’s a not for profit organisation which truly does put children first. They are also so flexible about rearranging days around public holidays etc.

Both of our kids have attended Goodstart Kensington from Nursery, and one has now graduated to primary school. The team of educators are amazing and spend a lot of time arranging various activities from cooking to arts and craft - at one point they even turned the preschool room into an airplane and issued passports to all the kids. We always feel welcome and have full trust that our kids are consistently getting great care and education. Would definitely recommend to other parents.

We are incredibly grateful for the amazing support and care this childcare centre has provided for our son. As a child with developmental delay, finding the right environment was very important to us—and this team has exceeded all our expectations. The educators go above and beyond in every possible way to support his growth, learning, and inclusion. Their inclusion program is truly exceptional, creating a nurturing and supportive space where every child feels valued and encouraged. A special thank you to Kelly, Winnie, Elly, Wendy, and Sunita, Kamini. Your genuine care, patience, and dedication have made such a positive difference in our son’s development. We deeply appreciate everything you do. Highly recommend to any family looking for a caring and inclusive childcare environment.

Thank you for your trust, your recommendation and for taking the time to share your family’s experience.
