Additional Centre Information

Rebecca Jermyn

Centre Manager

Hi there! My name is Rebecca and I am the Centre Manager at Goodstart Early Learning Corrimal.

I have been in the early learning industry since 1993 and I have a Master of Education Early Years. I joined Goodstart through Mission Australia Early Learning in 2019 and started in my role as Centre Manager in 2014.

Management Philosophy

I believe that all children should be given the opportunity to feel safe so they can become confident and resilient people, they should be given the opportunity to make choices in a fair and equitable environment to instil a passion for life- long learning

Education Philosophy

We create opportunities which encourage the children to explore their world in our natural play space environment. We also cherish the shared learning moments we have with our families and the wonderful relationships we have built in doing this to reach positive outcomes for all.

Team Statement

We are a team of dedicated early childhood professionals who are passionate about sharing knowledge with our children and families particularly around sustainability and the environment.

I look forward to meeting you and your family.

So pleased to have found such a warm, community minded centre so close by, we are amazed by the level of care and standard of education, all of the educators go above and beyond. Laurie (21 months, started at 11months) loves going to preschool and we can see why. The day starts with being greeted by an educator, I fill them in on how he has been and anything they should know. We've rarely had tears because he genuinely loves the team and is happy to be there. Outdoor play is plenty which we love, with a good split of structured and free play. Healthy, delicious food (that I don't have to pack?!! Winning!!!) is prepared onsite with attention to his dietary requirements. The toys and resources are such great quality and are clearly well thought out. He comes home every day bursting with new information and words, and stories about his favorite new friends. We can just see how much thought goes into planning each day. Could not praise the team highly enough. Thanks guys.

What an AMAZING centre! I have two children (both in the nursery) and all of the staff & the centre manager Bec are fun & friendly whilst also remaining open & honest. The amount of support they also showed me through the birth of my third child was absolutely amazing. They are also super adaptive to my children’s allergies & the kids come home clean & with no nappy rash! You can really tell that they are taken care of really well. Would highly recommend this centre to anyone.

This is a well managed centre with great staff that really care about the kids. The outdoor areas are great too - quite big with lots of room for the kids to play. Whilst the kids have a lot of play based activities, the centre stays on top of the educational/developmental components as well. The centre also runs several outside of normal hours events for the kids throughout the year, which are great fun for the kids and gives the parents the opportunity to mingle. We have other centres much closer to home, but we wouldn’t think about going anywhere else.
