About Goodstart Early Learning Sheidow Park - Young Street

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Sheidow Park is conveniently located near local schools and shops, easily accessible for families from both nearby and surrounding suburbs. We cater to children from six weeks to five years, including universal access for Kindergarten-aged children. Our welcoming centre offers a community-oriented atmosphere, designed to provide children with a nurturing, natural play experience.

Our indoor rooms, from Nursery to Kindergarten, are aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework, featuring sensory and play-based learning opportunities. Each area is thoughtfully arranged to inspire growth and development through hands-on, engaging activities. Outside, our three age-appropriate play areas include sandpits, a wooden boat, veggie patches, and shaded spaces, encouraging children to explore and connect with nature.

We maintain an open-door policy and value family feedback, using Storypark, newsletters, and regular family nights to keep communication transparent and collaborative. This allows us to personalise each program to support individual needs, interests, and strengths while celebrating our centre’s cultural diversity.

When you enrol with us, your child will have access to secure facilities, nutritious meals prepared daily by an on-site cook, and a comprehensive school readiness program. Essentials like nappies, wipes, cot linen, and sunscreen are also included at no extra cost.

We welcome you to book a tour, meet our team, and explore how we can support your child’s early learning journey. Join our Facebook community for centre updates and early childhood resources.

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.

Our daughter attended Goodstart Young Street from when she was 18 months until 4 years old and found the educators warm, friendly, caring and always willing to go above and beyond to make our child feel happy and safe during her time there. The staff were fantastic at communicating with us and always willing to assist in supporting our child in any way necessary. Thank you for taking such good care of her.

I honestly can’t recommend this daycare enough. Both of my children have attended since they were 5 months old, and the love and care they’ve received has been incredible.<br><br>Watching my oldest grow in confidence, make friends and develop her speech has been so special. She absolutely loves going to daycare and is always talking about her educators and friends. My youngest has settled in so well, and it gives me so much comfort knowing he’s happy, safe and so well looked after.<br><br>Every educator is so kind, caring and genuinely invested in the children. You can tell they truly love what they do, and it shows in the relationships they build with the kids. As a parent, there’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your children are excited to go each day and are in such amazing hands.<br><br>The directors also go above and beyond for anything you need!<br><br>Thank you for everything you do for our family, we’re so grateful.

There are no words to express how wonderful the community at Young street Goodstart Sheidow Park are. My son started there at 1 year of age and is currently 3 transitioning into the kinder room. Trudi, Sarah and all the staff are so warm and welcoming and make my son feel so comfortable and happy to be part of the centre. I would recommend any family and friends to Goodstart. All the staff are caring, informative and assist my son in all aspects of play, and learning. My son has made lots of great friendships, come a long way in his speech and particularly loves the reading corner in the centres entrance area. :)
