Goodstart Early Learning Underdale

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.

Raj Sohi

My Name is Rajandep Sohi (Raj) and I have been working in the early learning sector for more than 14 years.

I have studied for 3 years in Children Services and started working in the early learning sector in 2010. I've always been passionate about working with children and I find it very rewarding to watch them learn and grow. I started my career with Goodstart Early Learning Nightcliff in the Northern Territory in 2012.

I love working at Goodstart Underdale because it's such a fun and enjoyable place to be. We are like a big family. Getting to know the children and their families is so rewarding and, as a parent myself, I can appreciate how important the relationships are between families and educators.

I take great pride in knowing that our centre will be the one that strives for excellence and quality in childcare while promoting our cooperative spirit. 

In my role as Centre Director I will strive to make the centre welcoming, inviting, and a positive place for all children, families, and Educators.
