About Goodstart Early Learning Cranbourne East
Goodstart Cranbourne East offers a nurturing 'home away from home' for educators, families, and children, supported by over 150 years of combined expertise.
Conveniently located off Narre-Warren Cranbourne Road with ample parking and nearby public transport, our centre is close to shops, healthcare facilities, and local schools.
Our team of dedicated educators is passionate about providing inclusive, high-quality care. We focus on fostering secure attachments with children and offer natural, stimulating environments that inspire exploration, challenge, and discovery.
Communication is at the heart of what we do. We prioritise open, honest interactions and support families by understanding their individual needs, cultures, and beliefs. Building strong partnerships allows for shared decision-making and contributions to each child’s learning journey.
Children’s learning is documented and shared with families via Storypark and ongoing discussions, aligning with the Early Years Learning Framework and the Victorian Early Years Learning and Developmental Framework. We believe every child has a voice and is a capable, competent learner. Our approach allows children to explore at their own pace, fostering independent choices in learning and play.
Our centre celebrates diversity with community events that highlight cultural holidays and important early childhood milestones.
We also offer a bulk-billed doctor service on Tuesdays, where Dr Rob provides health checks, immunisations, and well-being support for children, families, and staff.
Our open-door policy welcomes families to engage with their child’s early education. At Goodstart Cranbourne East, we pride ourselves on being more than an early learning centre – we are a supportive community network.

I have been a parent at the centre for 4years. I have 2 past kinder graduates & 2 currently at the centre. The staff are wonderful& caring ! Centre & Assistant Manager are experienced, funny & kind. Both have 10+ years in the industry & extensive knowledge about supportive child care practices. Not forgetting the amazing Educators who do an exceptional job caring and nurturing the children. My children have started in the Nursery room and moved up through the toddler & kinder rooms. Staff are very supportive of families and do their best to help in any way possible. I used to live within walking distance but moved about a 10mins drive away. I had an orientation at a centre close by and didn’t feel like the centre was anything like what we are used to. We are used the the spark and friendly, smiling faces ! Goodstart Cranbourne East provides a great environment where your child with learn, grow and build healthy, relationships. I give them 5stars for the outstanding service they provide in our community.

Honestly the best daycare in the area my little one started attending this daycare after being mistreated by a previous daycare and the obvious change in behavior was amazing. Two weeks in and she would be waking asking To go to daycare in such excitement. Communication from the educators are amazing, Belinda and Jordan are great, easy going and very understanding of any issues that occur. I'm glad I found somewhere that myself and my husband 100% trust.
