Goodstart Early Learning - Glen Huntly

My daughter has attended this daycare for just over a year. She has previously been to two other daycares that ended up being a real let down. This daycare has a great ethos and the staff try to offer lots of different experiences. I particularly am impressed by the kinder program and the things they focus on to get ready for school. Most of the other daycares I’ve been to have an open play curriculum where everything is informal learning. This daycare works on writing, maths and other pre-school skills. The kinder teachers also are great at giving feedback if there is a certain goal or skill you’d like your child to work on. The building is relatively new and they have a good selection of resources set up in the room.
I trust them with taking care of my 4yr old and 7 month old which says a lot about my confidence in their care.
The team who take you for a tour are good at answering your questions and you’ll leave pretty impressed with what’s on offer.

I think the food menu could do with some revision to include more vegetables. That’s my only feedback.

The care at this centre is amazing! Thank you Mayumi, Selvina and her team for the amazing work. I am always kept informed about my child and they welcome feedback. I love this centre and would highly recommend it!

Dear Goodstart Center,

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the exceptional care and education that my son Daniil has received at your center. The staff members are incredibly friendly, respectful, and patient, and my son loves going there every morning.

Since my son started attending your center, he has learned many skills and has become more proficient in English, his second language. It's been fantastic to see his progress in this area, and we're delighted with the results.

Most importantly, my son comes home every day talking about the exciting things he learned and experienced at Goodstart Center. The positive impact that your center has had on his development is evident, and we couldn't be happier with the care he has received.

Thank you for providing such an outstanding educational and care facility for our children. We feel blessed to have found such a wonderful place for our son.

Goodstart Caulfield should change it’s name to Amazing-start!
My baby has been attending since 9 months old, and we can not be happier, the staff are beautiful and he is thriving because of their dedication.

Our kid C had an amazing time during her kinder at Goodstart. The teachers made her feel comfortable right from day 1 and she made some good friends with whom she is still in contact after moving to India as well. Highly recommended place for overall well being of the kid and the attention from the teaching and support staff is the best I've seen.

Our son joined the Goodstart caulfield family in October 2022. The team have been incredible from the very beginning, providing us with daily updates on the activities and learning with photo/videos. The regular updates brighten my day.
The educators create a safe and inclusive environment for our child to flourish.
I highly recommend the centre.

If you're moving to the area or have a child ready for childcare, it's certainly worth contacting Sel and the team.

Staff mean well - but entirely incompetent. I never leave these kinds of negative reviews - or any reviews ever. But I feel quite strongly about this. I won't go into detail, including how they ruined my son's first birthday party, but for MONTHS my youngest son cried at almost every drop off right up until his last day. Started at a new daycare and we are at day 3 and my youngest son ran in & sat on educators knee and didn't even bother to say goodbye to me. The difference is the amount of care, love & attention that is given to your child.

Very caring, safe and loving environment, professional staff and highly competent management. The beautiful educators truly know and care for each and every child. Our son attended the nursery and toddler room at this center and was very happy here. The staff made a great effort to cater to his many food intolerances. We left this center 3 months ago due to moving house and our now 2.5 year old still talks about some of the educators who have left a long lasting impression. A special Thanks to his key educators Archana and Kiko. You are truly missed!

The staff at good start glen huntly are very responsible reliable and caring. My son loved going there and had made so many good friends and learnt so much life skills. The educators are passionate about what they do and you can tell they care about your little ones-every time I go to pick my son up, the educators on duty always brief me about what activities they had been doing during the day and some funny moments or highlights of the day. They noticed the little changes about your child and they praise them as encourage them as they go. Very happy about the management there too, always efficient in replying to my email and very flexible. Highly recommend!

Our lil one start going there when he was nine months old and now he nearly is 20 months.we had never any issues.feels very safe there all the educators are very professional and nice. Thanks to all A1 team.especially Anhad love KIKO Myomi? And recently he starts loving sylvia too

Vian was 6 months old when we started sending him to GoodStart GlenHuntly and from that day forward we have fallen more in love with this childcare center every day! It has a very inviting and cheery atmosphere. During Vian's orientation When we were still unsure about sending him to childcare at 6 months, Centre Director Sri gave us a tour and that's when we met Mayumi, Kiko and Swetha in the nursery room who are so welcoming and nurturing and always wearing smiles. All the educators and staff are very dedicated and compassionate, down-to-earth, hardworking, understanding and loving. Every time we requested Sri for an extra day, she gave her 100% each time to accommodate the request. We love how Vian always brings home spectacular creations, taking part in new experiences, making new friends, going on walks, playing inside and outside, and being cared for in an incredibly one-of-a-kind loving atmosphere, while we both are at work. I highly recommend you checking out this treasured childcare center.

Great caring staff, my kids are always happy and as a parent we are always well informed of what their activities are or how they are doing the whole day.

My son has loved goodstart glenhuntly since he started there in the babies room 2 years ago: he loves his friends and has developed great relationships with many of the educators and staff. I am very happy with the centre.

My two kids have been this childcare centre for 2 years. The staff are all very nice and take care of children very well. Highly recommend!

The nursery educators are dedicated to to the babies' wellbeing. They're always coming up with new ideas and activities to stimulate and encourage the kids.

My son has loved goodstart glenhuntly since he started there last year: he has made many friends, and has developed great relationships with many of the carers and staff there. I am very happy with the centre.

I am one of the happy mothers associated with Goodstart Glenhuntly family.
I must say that putting my 20 months old daughter in Goodstart Glenhuntly.
The staff is not only committed, passionate, friendly and professional but they are so caring as well. My daughter is a picky eater and she really gives me tough time at home but recently under the supervision of centre directness, the toddler's room educators made such an effective diet plan for her and also help me to implement it at home.
I must recommend everyone who is looking for a better option of childcare for their children to pay a visit to Goodstart Glenhuntly:)

My son have made lots of friends there and loves to go there.
Learning new things everyday.

What a pathetic place. Children left to cry out in the sun. My child and others stood on the gate and cried for hours and the staff cared little. My child was never greeted On coming into the room The staff are lazy. Some are downright rude! Don’t want to lift a finger to look after kids; which is their job by the way. It’s filthy as yuck! Always an outbreak of gastro there. Do not send your kids there even if it is the last option before an apocalypse!

Its not good start, its worst stop.today I went to receive my daughter. She was crying all her heart out, She was crying for a longtime.and the staff were just nearby but nobody cared.

They just leave the child on their own, whether they play in open in hot noon, or the child is crying or If the child has not drink water since morning (more than 6-7 hours).

NOBODY CARES. WORST EXPERIENCE.
