About Goodstart Early Learning Bentleigh East - South Road
Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Bentleigh East - South Road
We're your local early learning centre, providing care and education to children in our community. We’re built on Boonwurrung country.
Our centre features four rooms: a nursery for our babies, a stimulating toddler space, and two classrooms for our three- and four-year-old kinder program, delivered by qualified early childhood teachers.
Children love exploring our three spacious, sustainable yards. They feature veggie and herb gardens, play equipment, wooden decks, a fort, sandpits, worm farms, digging patches, climbing areas, water features, and plenty of shade. We also serve nutritious dinners before home time!
We invite you to a tour, so let us show you around. You’ll find us near East Bentleigh Primary School, DFO Moorabbin, and Moorabbin Train Station. We’re in a picturesque neighbourhood near shops, a main road, and public transport, so it's easy to access.
You’ll meet our longstanding team of educators, committed to strong family bonds and a child-first approach.
Our programs are based on the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework. They’re flexible around children’s interests, nurturing babies according to their needs while getting our older children ready to take the important step to school.
A range of sensory and play-based activities helps to develop children’s language and literacy, science, numeracy, music, art, communication, problem-solving, and social skills.
We offer regular excursions and community walks to nearby schools and businesses. We also host visits from community professionals like dentists, maternal and child health nurses, occupational therapists, and psychologists.
All meals, snacks, nappies, wipes, hats, and sunscreen are included. We also keep you informed through family nights and newsletters.

When we first went looking for a childcare center when our first child was going to start we visited a few, and at the time felt so uneasy this was until we went and toured Goodstart South road. From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed and at ease and the kids looked happy. Brittany the manager is exceptional and knows how to run a good team. As they say, you know management is good when staff have been there for many years. Everyone looks happy to be in the role. All the staff are professional, warm and dedicated to creating a positive and engaging environment for children to grow. Goodstart South road doesn't just have a childcare feel it feels more homely and more like a family. Knowing our children are in such a nurturing, caring and safe environment ticks the boxes for us.
Response from the owner2 months agoThank you for your beautiful review, Emma. We’re so pleased to hear that your experience at Goodstart has been such a positive one. It means a lot to know you felt welcomed from the very beginning and that your children are thriving in a nurturing and homely environment. Your kind words about our team and the atmosphere we strive to create are truly appreciated!

My son has been attending Goodstart for over 1.5 years, and he’s had such a wonderful time there. He enjoys every single day, and seeing him thrive in all areas of his development makes us feel incredibly happy and grateful. The staff are attentive and provide personalised care with great attention to detail. They are always patient, kind, and genuinely care about the children. There’s a wide variety of activities throughout the day that keep the kids engaged and learning through play. We really appreciate the nutritious meals provided, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which take a lot of pressure off us as working parents. The team has been consistent with very stable staffing, which gives us peace of mind and helps our son feel secure and settled. We’re truly thankful to have found such a caring and supportive environment for our little one. It’s been a big part of his early years, and we can see how much he’s grown in confidence, language, and social skills.

Our son moved here from a different kinder and we couldn’t be happier! This place is absolutely amazing, it feels more like a family than a childcare. The educators are great and they even offer my son to come and join them for special events on the days he’s not usually attending kindy. Highly recommend this place!
Response from the owner3 months agoThank you for your kind words. We're so pleased to hear your family has had such a positive experience since joining us. It's wonderful to know your child feels a strong sense of belonging here. We really appreciate your recommendation!
