Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Bentleigh East - South Road

Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Bentleigh East - South Road

We're your local early learning centre, providing care and education to children in our community. We’re built on Boonwurrung country.

Our centre features four rooms: a nursery for our babies, a stimulating toddler space, and two classrooms for our three- and four-year-old kinder program, delivered by qualified early childhood teachers.

Children love exploring our three spacious, sustainable yards. They feature veggie and herb gardens, play equipment, wooden decks, a fort, sandpits, worm farms, digging patches, climbing areas, water features, and plenty of shade. We also serve nutritious dinners before home time!

We invite you to a tour, so let us show you around. You’ll find us near East Bentleigh Primary School, DFO Moorabbin, and Moorabbin Train Station. We’re in a picturesque neighbourhood near shops, a main road, and public transport, so it's easy to access.

You’ll meet our longstanding team of educators, committed to strong family bonds and a child-first approach.

Our programs are based on the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework. They’re flexible around children’s interests, nurturing babies according to their needs while getting our older children ready to take the important step to school.

A range of sensory and play-based activities helps to develop children’s language and literacy, science, numeracy, music, art, communication, problem-solving, and social skills.

We offer regular excursions and community walks to nearby schools and businesses. We also host visits from community professionals like dentists, maternal and child health nurses, occupational therapists, and psychologists.

All meals, snacks, nappies, wipes, hats, and sunscreen are included. We also keep you informed through family nights and newsletters.
