Our high-quality, play based preschool curriculum is delivered by Bachelor qualified Early Childhood Teachers.

Through play, our Early Childhood Teachers facilitate children’s learning of important language, literacy, numeracy and creative skills.
Benefits of Goodstart Kindergarten/Preschool 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.
Play is the order of the day of Goodstart Early Learning and the programs at the centre are grounded in a play-based approach. The educators embed teaching and learning into play experiences, helping the children to make sense of the world around them. This is how the children learn about how things work and develop important foundational relationships and skills.
The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.
The educators recognise that every child is unique and that they bring their own needs, interests and strengths with them each day. The program is designed to be flexible to cater to these differing needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive at Goodstart.
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.
Goodstart Early Learning employs qualified and skilled educators who are dedicated to making a difference to the children in their care. The centre employs people who are empathetic and compassionate, with a nurturing disposition and a passion for care. Working collaboratively as a team, the educators display qualities such as positivity, kindness and, most importantly, a desire to help every child thrive.
The educators hold relevant qualifications, including the Kindergarten and Preschool Program teachers who are university qualified. The educators are lifelong learners, participating in regular and ongoing professional development to enhance their skills. They are encouraged to upskill, learning about the latest research and thinking in the sector. They can then bring this knowledge back to the centre to share with their colleagues for the benefit of the children.

My son joined a few months ago and loves it! The centre made the enrolment process easy and welcoming. All the teachers are kind and caring, and the food is good too.

my kid goes here since 8 month old, and now he has just hit 15 and a bit.<br><br>He has enjoyed the centre immensely, both his friends and the educators. We only hoped at the start that he wouldn't cry when we started dropping him off. He exceeded that and even reaches out now to educators whoever present to greet him on the days he goes to the centre. It is extremely heart warming to see.<br><br>All in all, if I have another child in the future, I will definitely send him/her here.

Our daughter has attended Goodstart Hurstville for about 6 months now, since she was 12 months old. From the start we felt confident about sending her as the 5 orientation sessions gave us a good insight into how the nursery room operated. Rosza, Shantona and Anita are warm, kind and clearly excellent at their jobs and our daughter loves going - she happily runs out the door on daycare days. All the other staff are lovely and the Director, Emily is organised and approachable, with thorough communication.<br><br>Of all the centres we toured Goodstart Hurstville was the one that we felt had implemented proper safeguarding measures. They have also found a great balance between providing updates in Storypark and not having iPads in our childs face all the time taking hundreds of photos. The learning stories we get are considered and sharing of kids photos with other families is limited.

My two kids who are nearly 4 and 2.5 years olds, attend to hurstville Millet centre for a 1.5 year and I am very satisfied with the support they receive. I would especially like to thank Miss Hiba, Dunia, Shika, Cindy, Nuzi, Hasina, Kate, Rozsa for the warmth, and care they show my children and all also the whole team.<br>I would also like to thank Emily, the centre director for always being helpful and super nice whenever I need information or assistance.<br>Thank you all for doing such a hard job, it is truly appreciated.
