Curriculum and programs
Curriculum and programs
The educators at Goodstart Early Learning follow an evidence-based curriculum that aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework. Informed by world-leading research, practices and techniques, the curriculum encourages the children’s natural curiosity and engages them in their learning journey.
As the children move through the different rooms in the centre, the curriculum evolves with them. The educators set goals for the children and celebrate as they reach their milestones. At every stage, the educators are tailoring the curriculum and goals to each child’s individual needs.
The curriculum involves different types of learning experiences and styles. From child-led learning to sessions guided by educators, the children participate in small and large group sessions as well as individual play. Most importantly, the children learn through play, developing social skills, confidence and independence in addition to more formal academic skills.
Play is the order of the day of Goodstart Early Learning and the programs at the centre are grounded in a play-based approach. The educators embed teaching and learning into play experiences, helping the children to make sense of the world around them. This is how the children learn about how things work and develop important foundational relationships and skills.
The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.
The educators recognise that every child is unique and that they bring their own needs, interests and strengths with them each day. The program is designed to be flexible to cater to these differing needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive at Goodstart.
Parent communication and involvement
Parent communication and involvement
Goodstart Early Learning uses the StoryPark app to connect with parents throughout the day. The educators upload photos and stories to the secure app, which parents can access anytime and anywhere to track their child’s progress.
The approach at the centre is very much based around partnership between families and educators. The educators work with the parents and carers to build strong relationships. They develop trust so the children can feel safe and secure while at the centre. Parents are also encouraged to share their insights and feedback with educators to add depth to the relationship.
The educators observe the children every day and tailor the program around their observations. They share these with parents, so they can feel connected to their child’s progress and also provide feedback that will further enhance their child’s learning experience.

Goodstart Early Learning employs qualified and skilled educators who are dedicated to making a difference to the children in their care. The centre employs people who are empathetic and compassionate, with a nurturing disposition and a passion for care. Working collaboratively as a team, the educators display qualities such as positivity, kindness and, most importantly, a desire to help every child thrive.
The educators hold relevant qualifications, including the Kindergarten and Preschool Program teachers who are university qualified. The educators are lifelong learners, participating in regular and ongoing professional development to enhance their skills. They are encouraged to upskill, learning about the latest research and thinking in the sector.

Caitlin Smith
Hello, my name is Caitlin and I am the Centre Director at Goodstart Clearview.
I started my career in early childhood in 2010 completing my Certificate III and Diploma. I am dedicated and passionate about the industry and I believe early childhood education is vital to giving children the best possible start in life. I have two of my own children and becoming a mum ignited my passion in early learning further and gave me the opportunity to experience a Goodstart centre as a parent.
I have seen my children and many others bond with their key educators and I know how reassuring this feeling can be so I strive to achieve this with each child and family I have the pleasure of working with. I believe open and honest relationships are fundamental to a positive early learning experience.
At Goodstart Clearview our vision is for each child to grow, explore, and develop respectful relationships within a nurturing environment.
I’m looking forward to helping your family transition into starting and or continuing your early learning experience.

We checked out a few centres and finally chose Goodstart Clearview. Our baby girl was quite unsettled with new place and routine at the beginning, but within less than 2 months, she has settled extremely well. Educators are patient and genuinely care about children, and this is what we love about the centre. We love to read all the little stories, festival celebrations, decorations, what she did with other children and educators during the day, and her feeding and nap schedule. Thanks for doing an amazing job and keeping our children safe and entertained. Highly recommended to any parent who is nervous about sending your baby to childcare, the educators will make you feel supported along the journey. Read more
