Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Goodna

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Goodna is located on the corner of Redbank Plains Road and Kingsford Street, with convenient parking and a bus stop just outside. We cater to children from 6 weeks to 5 years, offering personalised learning programs guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines.

Our team of qualified educators creates natural, homely learning environments, and we use Storypark to share and extend children’s learning with families. We provide nutritionally balanced meals, nappies, wipes, sun cream, hats, and water bottles.

Our outdoor areas feature a blend of natural and manmade elements, including trees, sandpits, swings, a dirt pit, a musical station, produce gardens, a worm farm, and a rainwater tank. These spaces are designed to foster environmental awareness and imaginative play.

Community connections are a key focus, and we engage in local school visits, community events, and excursions to enrich children's learning experiences.

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.

Meet the team

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.
