I moved to Goodstart Aberfoyle Park a year ago, as i was unhappy with the current centre my daughter was in. Alex was really lovely, she let my daughter have half days, even a few hours in the morning, just while she was getting used to the centre. She wasn't meant to be in fulltime, but it turned into full time very quickly. The Staff treat the children like family, they give hugs, they pick the children up when needed, they form such amazing bonds with the children! The Admin team work tirelessly to make sure everything is up to date, and Hannah, in the early days, dealt with my many calls, with such empathy and compassion! The Kitchen team have been nothing short of incredible. My Daughter has a few food allergies and intolerances that unfortunately would upset her tummy quite often... But with lots of back and forth of emails, phone calls, person to person chats, we have found what works for her. Bel is always up for a chat regarding your children's dietary issues, and if she can make it work, she will make it work! Overall, I am more than impressed with Goodstart Aberfoyle Park and will be sure to recommend them to anyone looking for childcare in the area! 5/5 stars to this big childcare centre family!!

We are fairly new to the centre, however I couldn't be happier with the care provided to my little one in Nursery 1. Our little miss has built some great bonds with the educators making drop offs alot easier. As a worried mum the staff have been super reassuring and have really listened too and followed our routine making it such a calm and breezy orientation into child care. I also love being greeted every morning by Hannah at the front desk... Always has smile and so helpful ☺️ Thankyou to the AP goodstart team!

We have really enjoyed our time at Goodstart in nursery 1, having a Key Educator has been wonderful. Our son only attends 3 days a fortnight, so having one person get to know him, has been great! It was allow him to build trust quickly. Special mentioned to Shania, she is wonderful, she always provides a great overview on the day and a beautiful cuddle on arrival and also to Hannah at reception, she has the most welcoming, kind nature and has been a great support to me, as a first time mum on the childcare scene.
Response from the owner11 months agoThank you so much for leaving such a fantastic review of Goodstart Aberfoyle Park! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience in Nursery 1. The benefits of a Key Educator are truly valuable! Having one dedicated person get to know your son has helped him build trust and feel comfortable in his new environment. We're so glad this system has worked well for him. Our educators take great pride in building positive relationships with each child, and it sounds like Shania is doing a fantastic job. A warm and welcoming environment starts from the moment you walk in the door, and Hannah's kind nature is a valuable asset to our team. Especially for first-time moms like yourself, a friendly face can make a big difference. Thank you again for choosing Goodstart Aberfoyle Park, Mel. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to watching your son continue to blossom in Nursery 1.

My little boy has been going her since he was 5 months old and loves it. He is always so happy to go in the morning and never wants to leave at the end of the day. The staff are so attentive and have really got to know him as he has grown up. All of the staff are great and caring with the children and the range of activities that they do in the day is great. The staff have also been very understanding with my requests and have worked with me to ensure that what we are doing at home is translated into the day at day care. Overall, a great decision and one I would not change!
