Centre Director
Hello! My name is Natalie (you can call me Nat!), and i'm the Centre Director here at Goodstart North Sydney Berry Street.
Welcome to Goodstart North Sydney – Berry St!
My name is Natalie Muggoch and I have the honour of leading our unique and inclusive community here in North Sydney – Berry St, on the land of the Gamaragal/Cammeraygal people. With 7 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 in early childhood education as a trainee, which ignited my passion for early learning. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to support opening a new centre and support the development and growth across multiple centres.
I believe in building relationships and working in partnership with families and not just the child. For me, it's all about building long term relationships with families that last the first 5 years of their child’s life.
Goodstart North Sydney – Berry St is special because we have many long-standing staff and families that have returned with younger siblings. 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 North Sydney – Berry St. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, or better yet, book a tour to see firsthand the wonderful environment we've created for our children. Together, we can make these early years enriching and memorable.
Warm regards,
Natalie Muggoch
