Goodstart Early Learning Mill Park - University Drive

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Mill Park – University Drive is conveniently located behind McDonald's on Plenty Road, close to the Western Ring Road, Westfield, and University Hill shopping centre. The centre is near public and private schools, as well as RMIT University, making it easily accessible for families in the area.

Our team of experienced and qualified educators, many of whom are long-term staff, provide high-quality care in a warm, nurturing environment. The centre is purpose-built with age-appropriate outdoor learning spaces. Inside, each room—from Nursery to Kindergarten—follows the Early Years Learning Framework, offering sensory and play-based learning to support children's growth and development.

We focus on preparing children for school through stimulating surroundings and engaging activities. The Storypark platform, alongside family nights, newsletters, and emails, helps us stay connected with families, ensuring open communication and allowing us to tailor programs to each child’s needs, interests, and strengths. Our centre celebrates cultural diversity, reflecting this in our curriculum and community.

Our outdoor play areas feature natural and manmade elements such as sandpits, veggie gardens, a worm farm, and plenty of shaded space for exploration. We also offer a nationally balanced, rotating four-week menu to ensure healthy, nutritious meals for all ages.

Come and visit us! We would love to welcome you and your family to explore how we can support your child’s lifelong learning journey.
