Headstart Early Learning Centre Bella Vista

I had the privilege of completing two student placements at Headstart Bella Vista—one in July and another in October—and my time there was truly exceptional. As someone who has experienced the day-to-day operations and culture of this center firsthand, I can confidently say that this is a fantastic place for children to grow, learn, and thrive. The director, Kathleen, leads the center with incredible dedication and professionalism. Her warm and approachable demeanor creates a welcoming atmosphere for both staff and families. She ensures that the center is a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for every child. A special mention goes to Christy, my mentor during both placements. Her guidance and support were invaluable as I developed my skills and knowledge as an early childhood educator. Christy's passion for teaching and her ability to connect with the children were inspiring to witness. She leads by example and is always ready to lend a helping hand, ensuring that every child feels included and cared for. I would also like to express my gratitude to all the amazing educators in my room—Rosie, Jodie, and Marjan. Their kindness, professionalism, and dedication to the children made my experience truly unforgettable. Working alongside them gave me invaluable insights into how to create meaningful learning experiences for young children. Their ability to balance care, education, and fun was nothing short of remarkable, and they made me feel like a valued part of the team. For parents considering Headstart Bella Vista for their little ones, I can assure you that your children will be in wonderful hands. The staff are genuinely caring, highly professional, and deeply invested in the development and happiness of every child. The center provides engaging learning activities, creative play opportunities, and a strong focus on building social skills—all in a safe and supportive environment. Having seen what happens behind the scenes, I can attest to the team’s dedication to providing top-quality care and education. They go above and beyond to make each child feel valued and loved. If you're looking for a daycare where your child will feel happy, supported, and encouraged to explore their potential, Headstart Bella Vista is an excellent choice.
