Goodstart Early Learning Thorneside

Normal Hours

My son has been with Goodstart for 8 months and we are impressed with the care he receives from the dedicated staff. The Centre has been very patient and accommodating of any requests and I love seeing how comfortable our son is around the educators who genuinely love these kids. As a first-time mum I have appreciated how the Centre has gone above and beyond to ensure I feel at ease leaving our precious son with them.

I have been with Goodstart Thorneside for over 10 years off and on. I am a foster parent and have had to rely on this centre multiple times when I've been given emergency care children. Each and every experience I've had with them has been nothing short of top notch. Their staff are amazing, the centre is a fantastic facility and their dedication to the care of children is an inspiration. I would like to thank them for their constant care of me and the various children in my care over the past 10 years.

A beautiful centre with wonderful caring team of educators

Very welcoming to new parents. They go above and beyond for your children and ensure families and children's needs are met!

All of the educators are experienced and they are dedicated to not only teaching and guidance, but genuinely care for the children and their families.

Goodstart Early Learning Thorneside is located in close proximity to two primary schools (Birkdale and Birkdale South), Thorneside Railway Station, and is also easily accessible via bus, train or car. Our centre has been a part of the Thorneside community for ten years and has a wonderful reputation within the area.

Our child care centre provides high quality care to children aged from six weeks to five years.

All educators at Goodstart Thorneside provide ongoing support to our families and work closely with local support services. Our educators have a strong passion for early learning and a drive to ensure each and every child feels welcomed in our centre.

All of our rooms are set up in line with an Early Years Learning Framework, with sensory and play based learning opportunities. Colourful, stimulating surrounds ensure the children have the chance to grow and develop through sensory, play-based learning. We are focused on ensuring the children are ready to take that all important step up to school.
 
Our Storypark platform, as well as regular family nights and emailed newsletters, enable us to stay in close contact with parents and families, ensuring open and clear communication. This also means we can tailor each program to the child’s individual needs, interests and strengths – as well as the strong level of cultural diversity in our centre.

Outside, we have age appropriate play spaces and equipment, all geared to enhance the children’s awareness of their surrounds and the greater environment, as well as their understanding of the importance of sustainability.

The children love our outdoor playgrounds, playing in the large wooden cubby house and riding bikes around the bike track. We have a variety of gardens that the children help to take care of.

Community is also important to us and through visits to the centre and participation in events and activities throughout the year we are able to enrich the learning experience. We also have a dedicated community room and offer a community pantry, clothes and toy swap.

We are very lucky with our spaces and also have a dedicated music room that the children participate in small group experiences in.  

We look forward to meeting you and your children. Come in and explore how we can support you on the early learning journey.
