I highly recommend the Goodstart early learning centre in Palmerston. The educators and staff are kind, thoughtful and are great with my son. The Centre Director (Rebecca) is lovely, always makes herself available to talk to and runs the centre well. It has a real family feel and my son is happy here and developing well.
