About Goodstart Early Learning Girrawheen
Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Girrawheen is strategically located near Our Lady of Mercy Primary School, Girrawheen Senior High School, and Summerfield Shopping Complex, making it a convenient choice for families in the area. Our centre prides itself on being a vibrant multicultural community, where educators and families from diverse backgrounds come together to create a rich learning environment.
Our stimulating, play-based curriculum is designed in accordance with the Early Years Learning Framework, ensuring that each child's unique interests and needs are recognised and catered to. We utilise the Storypark platform to maintain open and effective communication with families, allowing us to support each child's learning journey and keep parents informed about their child's milestones and achievements.
Outside, our playground features a thoughtful balance of natural and manmade elements, including sandpits, climbing equipment, and a vegetable patch with compost and a worm farm. These spaces encourage children to explore, engage with their environment, and develop a strong understanding of sustainability.
We also prioritise the health and nutrition of our children, with a qualified cook preparing fresh, healthy meals daily, including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack.
We invite you to book a tour to meet our team and discover how we can support your family on the journey of lifelong learning!

My child has been at Goodstart Girrawheen since he was 10 months old. He thoroughly enjoys his time at the daycare, which makes me feel comfortable going to work every day. The staff here are genuinely caring and pay close attention to my child's needs and development. I love the activities they organize for the kids in the same room, as it helps them form friendships and acquire new knowledge.

One star for the good location. One star for the good experienced staff. One star for the chef lady who is very friendly and helpful and makes yummy nutritious meals. Missing the forth star for the cleanliness and bad smell in pre kindy room. Missing the last star due to the uninvolved educators. Even offering a greeting seems reluctant. Despite having three educators in the room, it is very disappointing to see that no one seems willing to step up immediately to welcome and take the child from the parent. One day, my baby raised and opened their arms for a cuddle, but none of the three educators (all the children were content and happy) responded. My child eventually lowered their hands and stood there until I closed the door. What a heartbreaking way to start the day, witnessing your child being neglected during drop-off time. How can the center ensure parents are reassured about leaving their child in the hands of these apathetic educators? Since July 2023, there has been a new management team in place, combined with the unfortunate behavior of some new staff members. This has resulted in the worst working attitude I have ever encountered under the new management. There are numerous meetings and emails that provide evidence of poor communication, if they are willing to share them. While you rightfully expect your children to be safe and well cared for, be prepared for ongoing communication issues from this management group. They frequently claim to listen and value families, but are adept at merely pretending to put in effort. The reality is that they do not take feedback seriously. Their management skills are deeply disappointing, and it's questionable whether they should hold these positions. I genuinely pity the dedicated staff working under such inadequate management. I am at a loss for words, as providing feedback to this group is a complete waste of time due to their skillful use of excuses and explanations.
Response from the ownerover 1 year agoThank you for taking the time to leave a review. Family satisfaction is extremely important to us and we're always looking to improve our centre. Your valuable feedback will be shared with our management team.
