Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Traralgon - Park Lane is an 86 place child care centre located in a residential area across from shops and close to local schools.

Our centre strives to provide the best quality care and customer service for all of our families.

Inside, all of the rooms  - from Nursery to Kindergarten / Preschool - are all set up in line with an Early Years Learning Framework, with sensory and play based learning opportunities. Colourful, stimulating surrounds ensure the children have the chance to grow and develop through sensory, play-based learning; and we are focused on ensuring the children are ready to take that all important step up to school.
 
Our Storypark platform, as well as regular family nights and emailed newsletters, enable us to stay in close contact with parents and families, ensuring open and clear communication. This also means we can tailor each program to the child’s individual needs, interests and strengths – as well as the strong level of cultural diversity in our centre.

Outside, our playground areas are a balance of natural and manmade elements and play surfaces – with large sandpits, digging patches, dry creek bed, vege patch, worm farm, compost bin, tan bark areas, swings and lots of shade. We have carefully designed and planned spaces to encourage a stronger understanding of the environment and sustainability – while giving children the scope to explore, play and let their imaginations roam.
 
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.

A major focus for our centre is how working with the broader community can help us enrich the children’s learning experience. Our centre also takes pride in supporting and participating in many charity fundraisers throughout the year, to make a difference wherever and whenever possible.

Further, through visits to the centre as well as excursions and participation in community events, we are able to deepen the relationship between the centre and the community, while teaching the children about being a contributing and active member of society.

Our centre’s vision is that passionate educators work together with families, setting high expectations to ensure the best possible outcomes for all children.

Drop in and say hello! We would love to make you and your family welcome and the centre and discuss how we can start your child on a journey of lifelong learning.

Ellen Woolfe

Centre Director
Hi there, my name is Ellen, and I am the Centre Director at Goodstart Park Lane Traralgon.

I hold an Advanced Diploma in Community Service Management, and I have been in the Early Childhood industry for over 16 years. I have worked in a range of services both private and non for profit and have worked within Goodstart for the past 11 years. 

My Early Learning values:
I believe that each and every child has the right to a safe, secure and stable environment where they can learn and grow at their own pace and in their own time. I believe that building reciprocal relationships with our families, both new and existing are of utmost importance to support a child’s learning journey.


What I love about our community:
The people within our local community are caring, compassionate and are enormously supportive of local businesses and each other. Whether it be supporting centre events, or donating resources to the service, or just a friendly conversation we are always grateful for time spent with our community.


Why your child should spend the day with me (and the amazing team at Goodstart Park Lane):
At Goodstart Park Lane we strive to provide a safe, and engaging environment where children can learn through investigation, inquiry and imaginative play spaces both in our indoor and outdoor environments. We are passionate about the everchanging needs of children and love supporting families as their child grows and builds their skills through play. Our dedicated team are passionate about getting to know you and your child to ensure we can build reciprocal and supportive relationships for your learning journey with us.
We look forward to welcoming you and your family,

Ellen
