Additional Centre Information

Joanne Russell

Centre Director

Hi there! My name is Joanne and I am the Centre Director here at Goodstart Early Learning Bendigo.

I’ve been working in early year’s education since 2001 and during my career I’ve had the opportunity to work with different age groups and across a variety of areas in the sector. I have an Advanced Diploma in Community Services and a Bachelor of Early Childhood Education.

I have two daughters who are my world and share, like I do, a huge connection with the centre and educators. For us it’s more than just a child care service, it’s our extended family. This is what I endeavour to have all families feel when attending.

I am extremely passionate about the early years and being an advocate for children. I enjoy working alongside families and within our community to assist in providing children with better educational opportunities, the ability to define their own possibilities and allowing them the freedom to explore, investigate and discover their world.

The team I am fortunate to work with shares my passion for seeing children meet their potential. They are dedicated, professional, experienced and highly qualified.

We invite you to come and visit our centre to meet our team and to see for yourself our commitment to your child’s early learning journey.

We have had an fantastic experience at the centre with both kids. From nursery to kinder rooms, we have always found the educators and staff to be friendly, supportive and encouraging. The kids love going to daycare here.

Wouldnt recommend for a young family bill without notice even after being informed on information that care needs to change at a certain time they bill for it instead
Great place for the little ones to start. My bloke loves it there.
