Goodstart Moonee Ponds

What makes Goodstart Moonee Ponds so special?

• We love family engagement and community

  We're like a big community in and out of the centre. 

  •  All rooms are connected, which is wonderful for siblings to see each other and for children to join their friends in different rooms.

  •  We nurture and build lasting relationships with our families and invite them to come in for incursions and for events like Mother's Day and Father's Day.

• Great food is our love language

  Our on-site chef, Raquel, takes great pride in preparing fresh food daily. From breakfast to a late snack, every meal is created and served with care and consideration of nutrition, allergies, and individual palates. Our menu is seasonal and rotates every four weeks. Raquel's cooking is so popular, and we have a cookbook of all her meals available at our centre!

• Goodstart’s Key Educator Approach

  Children need to feel safe and supported to learn and grow, so we promote Key Educator relationships between our educators and children.   

  Your child will have at least one Key Educator who takes them under their wing and really gets to know them. We keep families informed with regular updates on their child's progress and we welcome family involvement in our centre events and activities.    

• Flexible day care fees, hours and programs

  At Goodstart, we believe all children deserve the best possible start in life, which includes access to high-quality early childhood education and care. We offer:   

  •  Discounts on multiple days   

  •  All day sessions   

  •  Discounted shorter sessions   

  •  Fee assistance programs for families that need support  

• Kindergarten

  At our Moonee Ponds centre, our children don't have to wait until kinder to be taught by tertiary qualified early childhood experts. By the time our children start three-year-old kindergarten, they're already well on their way to excellent learning outcomes when they start prep.
