About Goodstart Early Learning Drouin

Goodstart Early Learning Drouin is nestled in the picturesque setting of West Gippsland, 90km east of Melbourne, near local shops, schools, and public transport. Our centre provides quality education and cares for children from Nursery to Kindergarten/Preschool, with rooms designed according to the Early Years Learning Framework to foster sensory and play-based learning. This ensures children develop essential skills and are well-prepared for their school journey.

Our outdoor spaces feature age-appropriate play areas, including sandpits, swings, a mud pit, a vegetable garden, a worm farm, bark pits, a bike track, and a dry creek bed, all promoting environmental awareness and sustainability. Shaded areas offer comfort and safety during play.

Communication with families is essential to us. We use the Storypark platform, host regular family nights, and send newsletters to maintain transparent and collaborative relationships. This allows us to customise our educational programs to suit each child’s unique needs, strengths, and interests.

We provide nutritious meals prepared on-site by our cook, catering to children’s dietary requirements and offering breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack.

Strong community engagement enriches our children’s learning experiences. Through excursions, visits, and participation in local events, we teach children the value of being active, contributing members of society while fostering a sense of belonging.

Come and visit Goodstart Drouin to see how we can support your child’s early learning journey and provide peace of mind for your family.

    Goodstart Drouin has been fantastic for us and our Child! Our child has formed great relationships with the cares and is always in a great mood when i pick him up and is enthusiastic about getting there in the morning! He gets a great variety of food, play, activities, attention and seems to be engaged with the activities they provide.

    Have had both my boys at our local centre. We have bad allergies, eczema and asthma and the team have always been on the ball, making me feel at ease. My eldest quite often wants to come for pick up to see his old teachers, he still enjoys the bond and big hugs he still gets. My littlest son enjoys knowing it’s a daycare day building friendships and foundations with the staff and children.

    Response from the owner3 months ago

    hank you so much for your wonderful feedback, Jami. We’re so glad to hear that both your boys have felt so cared for and supported. It’s so heartwarming to know that your eldest still enjoys visiting and keeping those special bonds alive. And it’s great to hear that your youngest is enjoying building friendships and connections - it’s exactly what we hope for! We’re grateful for the opportunity to be part of their growth and are always here to support you and your family. Thank you again for your kind words and trust in us.

    Couldn’t be more thankful for the staff and families at good start drouin, over 2 years in and I couldn’t fault the care provided to my son in this time. As any parent would know one of the hardest things in parenthood is finding people you entrust with the care of your child and the team at good start make this so much easier. I am confident that when my daughter starts in January she will be cared for to the same high standard as my son has been across these years and can’t wait to see how she grows and thrives in years to come due to the support she will receive here.
