Additional Centre Information

Sharna Beazley

Centre Director

Hi, I’m Sharna Beazley and I am the Centre Director here at Goodstart Heatherton Road.

I have had 7 years’ experience in the early learning sector and have worked within Goodstart for just over 5 years.

I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, and am very passionate about helping families, children and educators alike. Working together to achieve the best possible outcomes in all situations.

I take pride in the work that I do, and I love that with Goodstart I have the opportunity to continue learning, developing and working on my leadership skills.

I strongly believe that your child’s experience in early learning education should maximise each child’s potential and develop a foundation for future success in learning.

I look forward to welcoming you and your family.

We had a wonderful experience with our son here. We couldn’t be more grateful. We changed to here from Springvale service due to very poor standards. Good start dandenong are absolutely Brillant. Our son changed and was so happy here. My wife and I couldn’t recommend it more

We have been here for more than one year, from Nursery to Toddler. Before joining we visited other childcare centres. I would say this one is the best in this suburb, even much better than the exceeding one near where I work. Besides, the price is much cheaper than what I have known. The educators are very very nice. My kid even doesn’t want to leave every day because she is so happy there.This center makes us feel Goodstart is a very good choice!
Very friendly environment for kids, my son started loving Goodstart now. Educators are very professional & friendly. Really appreciate the cultural diversity in this place. Highly recommend Goodstart Heatherton road ❤️

This centre is amazing run by such a wonderful team. My eldest son, now 8yo says its the best place and looks forward to picking up his brother allowing him to re-live happy memories at the centre. The staff are super friendly, understanding, dedicated and supportive.

My daughter started in the 3 year old kinder program, now moving into the 4 year old and has very quickly come to dearly love the educators & the program offered here. Educators are very friendly, warm and encouraging & I feel very comfortable leaving my daughter in their care. She always comes back with lots of great stories when I come pick her up! An amazing centre with great staff, educators and facilities. Highly recommend to anyone!

My son started his journey in nursery 2. The educators were lovely and caring. There is always a warm feeling whenever I leave my son there as they were very supportive and friendly. I was feeling comfortable and safe to leave my son at the centre.

This centre changed our lives! As first time parents, it was the hardest decision for us to drop our 4 months old with strangers for 5 days a week. But Goodstart Heatherton seamlessly turned our fears into contentment. From a no hype tour to extending help for multiple free orientation sessions, they created an experience with trust for us. Our daughter is now 2 years and she loves the centre as her second home. I don't know what I'd have done if it wasn't for this palce. We go to work in peace knowing that she is not just looked after but loved very well. Most of the educators have been there for a long time which makes it easy for the kids to have less stranger anxiety. Every single educator is highly skilled with a heart of gold who updates us with daily and weekly events and activities. They work towards the growth and development of the kids with creative learning and set goals to cater to the needs of both parents and kids. I'd have given them 10 stars if I could. Thank you for being our family and loving our daughter as your own!
