Like any first time parent, we were so nervous about sending our precious little one to daycare. However, our daughter Zoe has been at Goodstart for 7 months now and we are so glad we found this centre. The centre is clean, meals are great for the little ones, but most importantly, Zoe has formed great relationships with the most amazing, caring educators. If you are local to this area, we cannot recommend this centre highly enough. Surabhi and Zac

Goodstart Early Learning Centre, Port Rd is a fantastic facility. It offers children a safe environment to play, learn, and build skills and friendships. The centre's staff are warm and caring. Everyone from the Director to Admin is experienced at meeting children's and parents' needs. The educators facilitate quality programs and learning opportunities to keep children engaged and happy throughout their day. I highly recommend this centre for all children prior to starting school.

My two girls have been attending Goodstart Cheltenham for a couple of years now. We adore our center director and all of the educators. The bonds and strong connections built with our children (and us as parents) are priceless. We have had trying times over the past 18 mths and have felt nothing but love and support to help us through. Our girls growth and development have come leaps and bounds, we work together with the educators to overcome obstacles and communication has been great! Most days they don’t even want to come home cos they love childcare so much! Highly recommend the center and couldn’t be more grateful to be a part of their community 💖🙏
Response from the owner12 months agoWe're truly grateful for your kind words Peta, and for entrusting us with the care of your two little ones!

It's wonderful to hear who your girls thrive in our care, and that you appreciate the collaborative support we aim to provide for their growth and development. Thank you for recommending our centre, and for being part of our community.

I cannot praise this centre enough! The care provided here is EXCEPTIONAL. I have been to multiple childcares now in order to find the right one and finally I can say I have never had a better experience. Each child's learning is approached to your child's individual needs, they take their time to ensure theyre treated as an individual and not just another number. The approach is treated as a family and you can only praise and praise how much effort is put into their learning approach and welcoming, warm atmosphere. No matter the area each teacher willl welcome you with open arms (even if they dont have your child as in their room) I know each and every day my son is in good hands. Kate's approach to pre school education program is exceptional and each day my son comes home with something new hes learnt and nothing but a smile. No matter the problem, big or small they will inform you of your child's day and keep you up to date of everything instead of leaving it till the end of the day, you know they care. Are flexible and always willing to accommodate to your last minute bookings or swap around with bookings. Keep doing all that you guys do because your hard work does not go unnoticed!
