Goodstart Early Learning Parafield Gardens

Welcome to Goodstart Parafield Gardens, located on Kaurna land and close to Parafield Gardens Railway Station and major bus routes. Our centre offers a warm, inclusive environment where children feel safe, supported and truly belong. Through play-based learning and strong relationships, children build confidence, curiosity and a love of learning.

Our longstanding and experienced team, with many educators supporting families for 10–24 years, provides consistency and trusted relationships. We focus on intentional, play-based learning guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, with experiences tailored to each child’s goals, interests and development.

Children’s wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do. We support emotional development, helping children build resilience, self-regulation and positive relationships. Our diverse, multicultural community, with educators speaking Hindi, Punjabi and Vietnamese, creates an inclusive environment where every family feels valued and respected.

Our outdoor environments and sustainability practices encourage children to explore nature, engage in gardening and develop an understanding of the environment. Regular incursions and excursions, including music and movement, emergency services visits and local walks, enrich learning and connect children with their community.

Our Flying Start school readiness program supports children to transition confidently into primary school, building independence and essential life skills.

Families often tell us they value our caring team, inclusive culture and strong sense of belonging. Book a tour today to meet our educators and discover how your child can learn, connect and thrive with us.
