I highly recommend The Strand, Goodstart Early Learning Point Cook for anyone seeking exceptional care for their children. The educators provide a personalized approach, catering to our specific needs regarding food preferences, sleeping patterns, and more. The variety of engaging activities they arrange greatly supports the kids' brain development. The management’s commitment to a client-first approach is evident—they always take feedback seriously and act on it. I currently have two kids enrolled, and my eldest, who is now in primary school, also benefited greatly from their care a few years ago. This center has consistently exceeded our expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with the service they provide.

Goodstart Early learning pointcook THE STRAND /opposit of milkbar needs and treats. branch Childcare carpets are very dirty need to be changed immidetly. Have too much of sand and dust.. rooms and toys didnt look clean either. I request the center manager to take the responsibility and change what's required since kids play and eat in that area and it should be cleaned well or replaced as required. The staff is a bit blunt i expect educators to be more polite and welcoming.
Response from the owner9 months agoWe take hygiene and cleanliness very seriously at our centre, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for all children. Please feel free to call us directly on 1800 222 543 to clarify your experience and any additional details. This will enable us to better understand your concerns. We genuinely value your input and appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention.

Stay away from this place. It actually deserves no stars. My child attended this service last year and she kept getting bitten and they did not even know she got bitten. The management are lax in responding to any injuries/incidences like this. I wrote a google review prior but it seem have disappeared now
