Qualified and caring early childhood educators
Our team of experienced and dedicated educators is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and stimulating environment for children. With a focus on building strong, positive relationships, we go out of our way to see your child feel valued and supported every day.
Kate Willis
My name is Kate and I am the Centre Director here at Goodstart Pimpama.
Welcome to Goodstart Pimpama!
My name is Kate Willis, and I have the honour of leading our Homely and inclusive community here in Pimpama, on the land of the Yugambeh people. With 24 years of experience in early childhood education and care, I'm deeply passionate about creating an environment where every child can thrive and discover their unique potential.
I began my journey when I was 17 with only babysitting experience, which ignited my passion for early learning. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to complete my Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care along with developing a deeper understanding of child psychology and brain development.
I believe every child learns in their own way and that we need to focus on each child individually and adjust to them and their families. For me, it's all about play based learning, relationships with children and inclusivity.
Goodstart Pimpama is special because we have long term team staff and are recognised within our community for our inclusivity. Every day, I'm inspired by the smiles, laughter, and learning that happen within our walls.
As centre director, my door is always open to families. I'm here to ensure your child's experience with us is nurturing, educational, and fun. I believe in transparent communication and building partnerships with parents to support each child's journey.
I look forward to welcoming you and your family to Goodstart Pimpama. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, or better yet, to see firsthand the wonderful environment we've created for our children. Together, we can make these early years enriching and memorable.
Warm regards,
Kate Willis

Our relationship with you and your family
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.

Kate and her staff at Goodstart Early Learning have been so supportive and helpful with our son since he has started. Our son needed extra support starting and they did and have done and still doing so much to make him feel welcome. We feel very safe to say we have found a wonderful place to support and teach our child everything he needs for his future. Every time we do drop offs and pick ups they are always doing something fun. Highly recommended. Read more
