Goodstart Early Learning Braddon is located in the quiet suburb of Braddon two kilometres north of Canberra's CBD.

We are a nationally Accredited centre, open 52 weeks of the year except public holidays. Our opening hours are from 7.30am to 6pm.

We are an 84 place centre with four rooms.  Each room provides an Early Years Learning Framework (ELYF) program specifically designed to meet the developmental needs of the children in the room.

Our 3 to 5 years rooms provide a program that aims to build the learning foundations for these children to go to school.

Our room leaders have either a diploma in children's services or are on their way to completing this qualification.

The majority of the assistants in the centre are currently studying their Certificate III in children's services.

Our Centre boasts nearby attractions such as a wide open park for children to explore, and close access to cafes and shops. We are also within walking distance to the City Centre Mall with Floriade just a few short blocks away.

Centre Director
Hi, my name is Louise Waghorn and I am the new Centre Director of Goodstart Early Learning Braddon. I have been in the childcare industry  for the past 11 years, with 3 years as a Director. I have an Associate Diploma of Social Science.

I have a wealth of experience across all age groups and enjoy interacting with all our children and families, offering support and information to staff and families on a day to day basis. 

My goal as a Centre Director is to get to know all my families and children, and provide high quality care in a safe and nurturing environment with the help of my caring and qualified staff.
