Goodstart centres
Not only does this allow for our educators to support success when transitioning but also encourages children to make choices and become more capable and confident learners. Our curriculum is developed in line with the Early Years' Learning Framework, keeping in mind the children's individual needs and interests.
One of the first things you will notice about Goodstart Early Leaning Mona Vale is our beautiful outdoor environment. We have endless opportunities for natural exploration in a safe, but challenging space where children are encouraged to discover, investigate and connect with nature. We encourage loud, messy play in our outdoor space, with logs, tyres, river rocks and water play, stimulating sensory learning as well as a respect and value on nature’s resources.
From our first meeting with you and your family, we will commit to providing tailored care, believing the parent to the best and first teacher in a child’s life. Our team are experienced, trusting and committed to ensuring you and your child experience the best quality care with us. We strive to establish secure base attachments, and work towards an evidence-informed, key educator approach, allowing for success when navigating the foundational aspects of life-long relationships and partnerships.
We also have a cook on premises five days a week and we provide breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and a late snack. The meals that we provide are healthy and nutritious and we also cater for children who have allergies to certain foods.
Community is also important to us and through visits to the centre and participation in events and activities throughout the year we are able to enrich the learning experience. Art and music experiences are provided on a daily basis which allow the children to freely express their creativity.
Come in and see for yourself how we can help give your child the best start in life – and give you peace of mind! We would love the chance to show you around.


Kylie DeCeglie
Welcome to Goodstart Mona Vale.
Hi, I’m Kylie and I am the Centre Director here at Goodstart Mona Vale. I started here in April 2024, I have 19 years experience working as a Centre Director on the Northern Beaches and live locally. I love our Community, I have 3 small children who attend local schools and you will find us all most weekends in summer enjoying everything this area has to offer, but mostly at Mona Vale Beach.
My early childhood philosophy:
I believe children develop and learn through their own interests and imagination, and the best way to foster this is by creating a safe and secure environment. This includes building strong relationships between the entire family and our Goodstart Mona Vale team.
What I love most about Goodstart Mona Vale:
Personally, I have felt very welcome and supported here by both the educators and families. Being situated right in the heart of Mona Vale is a huge advantage as it encourages us to open our doors and be a part of the larger community. It is heart warming to arrive here each morning to hear singing and laughter and be greeted by the smiling faces of the children.
My commitment to you:
As a Centre Director my aim is to build this Service into the best on the Northern Beaches. I am always available for a chat and to listen to any feedback you have to offer. It is important to me that your child’s time at our Centre is a positive, nurturing and fun experience. I believe their love of learning starts here, and they will leave fully prepared for their transition onto school.
Come and say “Hi”:
My door is always open and I look forward to meeting you and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Please feel free to book a tour where you can see this amazing Centre first hand. I am sure you and your child will love it as much as I do.
