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.
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.
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.

Kathy Babu
My name is Kavitha (Kathy) Babu and I am the Centre Director of Indooroopilly Witton Road.
I am thrilled to be joining this vibrant community and embarking on this journey with all of you.
My educational background includes a Master's in Computer Applications, a Bachelor's in Science with a Physics Major, and a Diploma in Early Childhood and Care. These qualifications have equipped me with a diverse skill set and a deep understanding of both technology and early childhood development. My vision for early childhood education is centered around creating a nurturing, inclusive, and stimulating environment where every child feels valued, respected, and empowered. I believe in the unique strengths and learning styles of each child, and it's our responsibility as educators to support and guide them on their individual learning journeys. Dedicated to continuous learning and professional development, I stay updated with the latest research and best practices in early childhood education.
Thank you for choosing Goodstart Indooroopilly Witton Road and allowing us to be a part of your child's journey in the early years. I am truly honored to be here and excited for the opportunity to positively impact the lives of our children and families.

Goodstart Indooroopilly Witton road have been fantastic. My son (now 16 months old), has multiple allergies and an asthma management plan, but nothing is too much trouble for the wonderful staff. I was quite reluctant to sent my baby to daycare (as a first time mum), but I'm so glad he has had the opportunity to experience such a great place. Read more

For the past eight years, Goodstart Early Learning Indooroopilly has been an extension of our family. Their incredible team has nurtured both of my children with love, patience, and dedication. While my eldest has moved on, my youngest is still lucky enough to be in their care, continuing to thrive in this warm and enriching environment. The educators go above and beyond, creating a space where children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. Their commitment to communication, play-based learning, and overall well-being is truly exceptional. We are so grateful for the foundation they’ve provided and the ongoing support they continue to give. Thank you, Goodstart Indooroopilly, for being such an important part of our journey! Read more

We are very happy we chose Goodstart -Witton Road for our daughter about 4 years ago. She has been seamlessly transitioned to more senior classes every year when she was emotionally ready. The educators are professional, kind, caring and understanding. They worked with us regarding sleep routine and food preferences. They provide regular updates about my child's day and learning journey. They communicate over the phone if and when my daughter is not herself. My daughter looks forward to attending the Kindergarten every single day which to me is an indication that she enjoys herself there. Both Kathy (director) and Hetal (Assistant Director) are exceptional. This centre is clean, safe and full of toys and books to keep children entertained throughout the day while learning new things 😀. Read more
