At Goodstart Bellbird Park, our philosophy centres around the belief that every child is a unique individual with their own interests and strengths. We embrace a play-based learning approach that nurtures curiosity and creativity, allowing children to explore their world in meaningful ways. 
We prioritise: 
1. Holistic Development: Supporting cognitive, emotional, social, and physical growth through engaging and developmentally appropriate activities. 
2. Family and Community Engagement: Building strong partnerships with families and the community to create a supportive network for each child. 
3. Inclusive Environment: Celebrating diversity and ensuring that all children feel valued, respected, and included. 
4. Lifelong Learning: Instilling a love of learning by encouraging exploration, problem-solving, and critical thinking. 
Through our philosophy, we aim to create a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive and become confident, capable learners. 
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 educator (their key educator) who takes them under their wing and really gets to know them. 
Our Key Educator relationships help children form secure attachments. Educators work closely with smaller groups and individual children to better understand each child. These relationships lead to improved outcomes for children as we foster more communication between families and educators. 
We inform families regularly about their child's progress and welcome family involvement in our centre events and activities.
At our Goodstart Bellbird Park centre, we're proud to inspire your child's love of learning with the support of our passionate and qualified Early Childhood Teacher. Teachers with bachelor's degrees run our kindergarten program, so children can be well on their way to excellent learning outcomes by the time they start school. 
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
We work closely with parents to ensure the individual needs, interests and strengths of children are considered, and our learning goals reflect them. Using Storypark, a wonderful communication platform, we stay in close touch with families and ensure you're well informed about your child's development and achievements.

Anne Pickels

Centre Director

My name is Annie Pickels and I am the centre director at Goodstart Bellbird Park.

My name is Annie and I have been working at Goodstart Bellbird Park since 2013. Over this time, I have developed a passion for this service, the families, children, and educators and treat the service like a second home. I completed my Bachelor of Early Childhood through QUT in 2011 and love using my skills every day to better our younger generation, mentor our Educators and to support the many families within our service about Early Childhood.

I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring and stimulating atmosphere to which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually and socially. It is my desire as a leader to help children meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supportive, and invites the sharing of ideas. I have a passion for providing an inclusive service for all children and families, utilising our educator knowledge and capabilities, community services and Goodstart’s Social Inclusion Team to ensure every child and family feels a sense of belonging and pride when coming to the centre.

I strive for a centre where there is opportunity for continual learning and growth and that delivers high quality care for children, including educational programs and experiences.

Teaching is a lifelong learning process of learning about new philosophies and new strategies, learning from parents and the community, learning from colleagues and especially from the children. Children have taught me to open my mind and my heart to the joys, innocence and the diversity of ideas in the world.

I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to Bellbird Park’s family.
