About our centre

Our purpose-built centre is located on Anzac Highway and provides much-needed care for local families.  Featuring seven spacious learning spaces over a single level and a separate nursery sleep room, Goodstart Plympton is designed as a modern yet home-like, naturally inspired environment.

All learning spaces have lovely natural light and direct access to our vast, nature-based outdoor spaces with sensory gardens, earth pits and dry creek beds. Our beautiful outdoor dining hub connects our learning spaces to the playground and provides a shaded, outdoor dining space for all children. Our onsite kitchen with child-height servery allows our cook to serve and engage our children in cooking and preparing meals. Our 3-5 years learning spaces feature engaging home corners, clay and art studios, quiet areas and construction block areas.

With a highly experienced team on board, each room runs a program for the children which is both age and developmentally appropriate. The early learning programs are structured around various learning areas - primarily based on the Early Years' Learning Framework -  with associated learning outcomes. There is a large emphasis on play-based learning and the importance of language, communication, social and physical development. Curriculum is based on the Early Years Learning Framework and is tailored to your child's individual interests.

A major focus for our centre is how working with the broader community can help us enrich the children’s learning experience. Through visits to the centre as well as excursions and participation in community events, we are able to deepen the relationship between the centre and the community, while teaching the children about being a contributing and active member of society.

Our vision is that "Children are provided through their learning environment the tools and experiences to gain confidence, be knowledgeable, strong and resilient".

We have appreciated the dedication, professionalism and kindness of all staff and educators. Our son has enjoyed the activities that have been creative and have extended his learning. He has felt comfortable and safe with the caring and encouraging educators. Thank you!

If I could give Plympton more than 5 stars I would, they have gone above and beyond with being so helpful with our son who started earlier in the year. He was diagnosed with Global development delay and he has hit so many milestone since going here! They staff are absolutely the kindest and most helpful I've met! I cant recommend them enough!
Hayley
Our son really had a wonderful time at Goodstart Plympton. All the admin staff and educators are so friendly and responsible. We particularly enjoy all the learning activities and photos that they posted and shared with parents. We strongly recommend Goodstart Plympton to parents who are looking for a good Early Learning Centre!
Mark
Invaluable for my daughter, I cannot fully put into words how much she has benefited from her time there she has learnt so much and because of this she is confidently ready for reception all thanks to Goodstart Early Learning and their teaching staff. I highly recommend Goodstart Early Learning to family and friends.

Laura Caskie

Centre Director

Hi my name is Laura and I'm the Centre Director at Goodstart Plympton.

I have been working in the early childhood sector for over 13 years. I’ve also had a variety of roles across various support agencies - all with the same goal to enhance and enrich children’s lives in their first 5 years and setting them up with foundations for life.

I believe that all children should have access to the best quality early childhood education while also supporting families to achieve their best while navigating parenthood and life at the same time.

I take great pride in my role of supporting and mentoring team members to be the best they can be while learning from each and every one of them at the same time. I work along side the team in a parallel way to ensure there is open communication, respectful professional relationships built on trust and respect.

Call us on 8297 6858, or click the 'Book a tour' button above to arrange a personalised tour. If you’d like a tour outside of the offered tour times please contact me so that we can organise this for you.
