About our centre

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Nuriootpa is located in the beautiful Barossa Valley among the grape vines of the district. We are tucked away in the quiet of suburbia but still close enough to schools, amenities and transport to be convenient – especially for the daily drop-off and pick-up!

Our outdoor learning environments are designed around purpose-built playgrounds with sandpits, veggie patches, herb gardens and deciduous trees. We like to think there is a touch of home in the centre.

We provide high quality education and care for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. Using the Early Years Learning Framework to guide our education program and scaffold children’s learning, our educators are passionate and committed to providing nurturing and simulating early learning environment. With a strong commitment and focus to create a warm and welcoming community focused centre we look forward to building and maintaining meaningful and true relationships with all our families and children.

Catherine Schultz

Centre Director

Hello everyone, my name is Catherine, and I am the Centre Director at Goodstart Nuriootpa.

My amazing husband, our 2 beautiful young adult daughters and I have recently relocated to Nuriootpa upon return to our hometown of Adelaide. Our adult son decided to remain in our previous coastal hometown of Portland, VIC. Portland is a small regional town, much like Nuriootpa and I learned so much about being a part of a close knit community while living there the past 11 years.

I have worked in the early education and care profession in between having children and holding other positions since 1995. I gained my Certificate 3 in Children’s Services in 2009 and then my Diploma in Children’s Services in 2011. I have been fortunate to have worked in many roles over the years and have extensive experience being a part of various services leadership teams.

Learning and growing professionally is of the utmost importance to me. I believe that through exposing ourselves to education and experiences we take responsibility for our professional growth. We can then better learn to support all our team, families and of course children, while striving for continuous improvement and service excellence.

It is my belief that children, require a safe environment that will allow them to be the best version of themselves. Children will grow in confidence when we work as a team with them, their families, educators, and agencies, to provide individualised and group play based opportunities.

Building relationships with the educators, children, families, and citizens of the Nuriootpa community will be my focus as Centre Director.

I am extremely excited to continue my early education and care journey here at Goodstart Nuriootpa and look forward to meeting each of you.
