    We have had a great experience at Goodstart Hawthorne. The staff look engaged with the kids and management are super friendly and welcoming, my son settled very quickly into the Nursery room – he smiles as soon as we arrive! The outdoor play area is spacious, and he especially loves the sandpit. We have had limited sickness which is another reason we picked this centre. Staff turnover is low, which speaks volumes about the centres culture. Thank Kate and the team for caring so well for my son!

    We feel incredibly fortunate to have our little one enrolled at Goodstart Early Learning Hawthorne. The intimate size of the centre fosters a warm, family-like atmosphere where we feel confident in our little one's safety. The procedures for managing allergies are impressively thorough, and the staff have consistently reassured us of their ability to mitigate any risks. Our little one genuinely loves attending daycare and has formed positive connections with the educators. We are particularly impressed by the variety and quality of activities that the educators prepare. Their ability to seize spontaneous opportunities—like playing in the rain or building cubbies based on the children's interests—shows their commitment to nurturing creativity and engagement. We also appreciate how children are encouraged to be independent during meal times and nap times, teaching them invaluable life skills. Communication from the centre is excellent, and we feel well-informed about our little one's daily experiences through regular updates. Centre Director Kate and Assistant Director Kritika are always present, exuding friendliness and approachability, which adds to our sense of trust in the centre. Overall, we highly recommend Goodstart Early Learning Hawthorne for anyone seeking a nurturing and enriching environment for their child.

    It's an easy 5 stars from me - my son joined the Goodstart Hawthorne family when he was 15 months old - he's just turned 5 & soon to graduate from this wonderful kindy to start prep next week. Kate (the director) and her wonderful team have nurtured, played & educated my son every step of the way. They've created a supportive environment where he's made great friendships, learned through fun games, and always felt cared for and safe. I couldn't be happier with the boy he's become - he'll be stepping into school like a boss & it's all thanks to this incredible team. Don't think twice about sending your child here- it will be one of the best decisions you make!
