Do not recommend! Our journey wasn’t great as much as some the staff tried, they couldn’t keep good staff because I believe at the organisation level the upper upper management didn’t support the good staff enough to stay.
Response from the ownerover 2 years agoWe’re sorry to hear that Rachel. It’s a shame you left the centre in March as you haven’t been able to the positive changes we have made and the strong team we have in place.

Our son has attended this centre since he was 1.5 years (now 3). The educators are so caring and tuned in to his needs. The centre has lovely outdoor play areas and a range of play options which have suited our child.

My child has attended Darwin Goodstart since he was 6 months old. We have loved our time here and intend to have our second born son attend as soon as we can. They update the resources often, children always seem happy and engaged and provide everything we need from nappies to food for the day. They operate a play based program and utilize the areas around the for excursions like bush walking, connecting to country and other various excursions! Overall we love it :)
