About our centre

Goodstart Croydon South is a bright and open centre, conveniently located near shops and the local school. Previously a dance hall, the building has lovely wooden floors, high ceilings and large rooms to cater for children six weeks to school age. Your child will have access to a variety of play and learning equipment in each of the rooms during their time with the centre.
 
Your child will be encouraged to learn through play and discovery by participating in a variety of activities such as cooking experiences, tending to the vegie farm, making collages or learning about sounds and music. The large outdoor play area is a wonderful area for your child to explore as it features a garden, vegie patch and leafy trees.
 
By participating in the diverse programs at the centre, your child will expand on their mental, emotional, physical and social skills. Goodstart Croydon South has a strong reading and book program which encourages your child to choose bedtime stories to share with you at home. Your child can also participate in Hey Dee Ho, an extra-curricular dance and movement class.
 
Qualified early learning professionals will work in partnership with your family to ensure the highest level of care and early learning is provided to your child. The team at Goodstart Early Learning Croydon South value family participation. You are encouraged to participate in the daily programs at the centre such as art and craft activities, reading stories or hosting music and movement.
 
The centre hosts events throughout the year for you to attend such as afternoon teas, dress up days, seasonal celebrations and graduation. Goodstart Croydon South looks forward to sharing your child's early years with your family.

Abha Chobisa

Centre Director

Hi, I’m Abha Chobisa and I’m the Centre Director here at Goodstart Croydon South.

My career in Early Learning:

I have been a Centre Director at Goodstart since 2013 and with other Goodstart centres in the area since 2011.

I hold a Bachelor’s in Education and take great joy and satisfaction in overseeing the educational programs and care at Goodstart Croydon South.

I have been in the Early Childhood industry for over 12 years and as a Centre Director for 10 years. I have worked in a range of services both not-for-profit and Outside School Hours care sector in Australia and as a primary and secondary teacher in India since 2001, working with children from birth to 16 years.

My Early Learning values:

I strongly believe that your child’s first experiences in early childhood education should be positive and joyous as that establishes their love for learning in their future life.

What I love about our community:

The people and the support! From a quick morning hello to the amazing support given when we organise events, fundraisers, and different activities with children.

A little more about me:

When I am not working at the centre, I enjoy reading, watching movies, cooking, and spending time with my son.

Why your child should spend the day with me and the amazing team at Goodstart Croydon South:

At Goodstart Croydont South we strive to provide a safe, peaceful, and natural environment that engages children's five senses, provoking wonder, curiosity, and intellectual engagement.

We are a happy bunch of educators who take pride in nurturing little ones to achieve their best.

I look forward to welcoming you and your family at our service.
