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.

Silky and her team are amazing. They look after two of my kids. The centre is always really clean, food looks appetising, kids well engaged and staff are always caring. Had a great time last year at the Christmas BBQ with plenty of snags and ice cream. Would highly recommend this centre. The one that I had before closed down and it was quite the contrast to come to such a modern and well run one. Marek.

We are incredibly grateful for the care and dedication shown by the entire team at this childcare centre, especially the wonderful director, Silky. From the very beginning, Silky and her team have created a warm, welcoming, and safe environment where our child feels happy, secure, and excited to learn every day. Educators Sarasi, Bec, and all others are not only professional and attentive but also genuinely caring and compassionate. It’s clear they take the time to understand each child’s individual needs, interests, and personality. Under Silky’s leadership, the centre reflects a strong sense of commitment, kindness, and high standards of care. We’ve seen such positive growth in our child’s confidence, social skills, and overall development since attending. Communication with parents is excellent—we’re always kept informed about daily activities, progress, and any concerns. The centre is well-organized, clean, and filled with engaging learning materials and activities that encourage creativity and exploration. Knowing our child is in such capable and nurturing hands gives us complete peace of mind. We truly appreciate the hard work and dedication of Silky and her entire team and would highly recommend this childcare centre to any family looking for a supportive and enriching environment for their child.

We enrolled our daughter at Goodstart Belair in December 2025 after a rough patch at another centre. We have gone from daily tears before morning drop off to a little girl who wakes up happy and is excited to see her friends. Extremely happy with the quality of care my daughter receives and would highly recommend this centre!

We’ve been at GS Belair for about six months now, and we’re so happy. Our daughter comes home with new words everyday, and absolutely loves her educators. The room staff are so warm and patient, and Silky is an incredibly communicative and thorough director. My daughter consistently eats AND sleeps better at daycare. I have asked the educators to come and live with us, but understandably, they have declined.
