About Goodstart Early Learning Semaphore Park
Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Semaphore Park is a small, 70-place centre nestled in a peaceful part of the community, close to local schools, shops, and transport routes. We provide care and quality education for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and a commitment to nurturing a welcoming, community-focused environment.
Our outdoor play areas offer a blend of natural and manmade elements, including shaded spaces from large trees, encouraging children to connect with nature and explore their surroundings. Designed to support sustainable learning, these areas inspire imaginative play and an appreciation of the environment.
With a dedicated and passionate team, our centre aims to build strong, meaningful relationships with families, offering a personalised learning journey that supports each child’s needs and interests. Storypark keeps parents connected to their child’s progress, while our school readiness program helps prepare children for a smooth transition to school.

Semaphore Park is the second Goodstart Centre we have enrolled at and chose to move here because of the incredibly positive feedback from friends who were enrolled there. The centre has provided consistent, supportive and nurturing care for my children since my eldest first was enrolled in 2022. In my experience, the staff turn-over has been minimal which has allowed my two to develop strong, comforting connections with the beautiful, friendly, loving staff who make my boys feel that they are genuinely cared for each day they attend. I think the staff retention is a testament to the wonderful culture and positive environment at the centre, and the way they have provided regular communication about my children’s progress and engagement has allowed me to feel comfortable in leaving my precious little humans in their care. The centre itself is bright, open and allows the kids to connect with each other across rooms, and by only having 3 rooms the need for change and transition is minimal which has meant less stress on the kids. Highly Recommend!

Our little one has being coming here since 7 months old. The transition was made easy with plenty of visits prior to starting and a caring nursery team who put lots of effort into engaging activities and keeping you informed. My favourite part is that my child has formed a bond with his educator and almost leaps out of my arms when he sees them. It’s located in a hard to access spot on Bower Road (can’t turn right into the centre) which almost deterred us from starting here; however there is ample car parking at the back of the centre and front to help with this. Highly recommend to all.

Our daughter started here when she was only 12 weeks old and she settled very well over my expectations. We have had the most wonderful experience with this centre! Our little one love this childcare and this hasn’t always been the case, so we know they are being provided with what they need social/emotionally, while also being exposed to some wonderful learning and investigation. Thrilled to have chosen this centre for our family, we recommend highly
