About Goodstart Early Learning Altona

Goodstart Altona caters to children aged 6 weeks to 5 years in a warm, welcoming and homelike environment. Staffed by an expert team of dedicated educators, the children’s interests and strengths are nurtured. Through an inclusive and community-focused approach, the educators ensure the children develop socially, emotionally, cognitively and physically.

In the large outdoor play space the children can enjoy the sandpit, climbing equipment or water play. There is also plenty of shade for all day play and synthetic turf to create a safe environment for the children to discover the world around them. There are also veggie gardens to teach the children about responsibility and caring for nature. 

Indoors, the children have access to a wide range of resources so they can explore their own interests in an interactive and immersive environment. They can sing, dance, build, create, explore and play. The rooms are light and bright, thanks to large windows that allow natural light to flood into the building.

    I would like to leave an excellent review for Goodstart Childcare in Altona for their patience, passion, and incredible work with my toddler since she was 12 months old. My daughter is very attached to us and usually does not let others babysit her, but with this childcare, she feels secure and happy. The educators respond to her when she gets upset, making her feel safe and supported. She comes home telling us she had a great day, played with her friends (even naming them), and was truly happy. Throughout her journey at Goodstart, my child has developed incredibly. She brings home books and uses her imagination to link stories with pictures, and we can see she has learned this at childcare. She has also learned cooking skills and improved her motor skills, both indoors and outdoors. A special thanks to Stacy, the manager, for being so approachable, knowledgeable, and always supportive. Hayley has been incredibly passionate and caring toward my child. Debti shows natural love and warmth, while Ibby has been so kind and welcoming. My child truly feels at home at this center, and I’m grateful for the care and dedication of the entire team.

    I am thrilled to share my experience with Goodstart Childcare Centre, which has truly been an amazing environment for my young children. From the moment we enrolled, it was clear that this centre prioritizes the well-being and development of every child. The carers at Goodstart are not only incredibly nurturing but also exceptionally skilled in early childhood education. They create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, allowing my children to feel safe and excited to learn each day. The activities they plan are not only engaging but also tailored to cater to the individual needs and interests of each child. I have witnessed my children grow both socially and academically since joining Goodstart. The focus on holistic development and the emphasis on play-based learning have had a profound impact on their growth. I wholeheartedly recommend Goodstart Childcare Centre to any parent looking for a nurturing and educational environment for their little ones. We are grateful for the wonderful care that our children receive here!

    After trying out two others in the city, we recently moved to this area and enrolled our kids in this daycare centre. We couldn't be happier with our decision. The level of care and attention provided by the staff is exceptional. Our kids are well-fed and taken care of, and we receive regular updates with photos and details of their daily activities. The facilities are always clean and well-maintained, and our kids love the various activities and play spaces. We also appreciate the community at the centre and enjoy getting to know the other parents and educators. We highly recommend this centre to any family looking for high-quality childcare in the area.
