Goodstart stories
High quality early learning at Goodstart
Delivering the best outcomes for children starts with quality.
The team at Old Reynella have looked after my little one since she was 6 months old. Helping us both settle into working and mum life which is such a big change. The office team are always able to answer my questions and if they can’t they’ll get back to me as soon as they know the answer. Definitely recommend! 🥰


I have been working in the Early Childhood sector for over 20 years and have always had a strong passion for working with children and supporting their development. I have been part of the Goodstart family for nearly five years and during this time have taken on a variety of roles, including Educational Leader and most recently Assistant Director. These experiences have provided me with valuable knowledge and leadership skills that I bring to my role as Centre Director.
I am currently studying my Master of Early Childhood Education to broaden my understanding of the evolving changes within the sector and continue strengthening my practice as an educator and leader.
One of my greatest passions in early learning is supporting children’s development through music and movement. Music has always played an important role in my life and I am an organist, with my love of music coming from my upbringing where I was exposed to a wide variety of genres.
I have three wonderful children aged 19, 18 and 13 who continue to inspire my passion for supporting children as they grow, learn and develop their own identities. In my spare time I enjoy playing the organ, travelling, and spending quality time with my family.
When working with children, I enjoy creating fun and engaging opportunities that support their learning and development. I believe children learn best through meaningful relationships, peer interactions and exploration, and I am passionate about supporting them to build independence, confidence and curiosity about the world around them.
I look forward to getting to know all of the families and children here at Old Reynella and supporting them throughout their early learning journey.
