Goodstart Early Learning Clayfield is a beautiful three room, open plan boutique centre with a supportive and high qualified team.

The centre was constructed in 1986. The owner/operator at the time was inspired by his own upbringing and designed the centre to reflects his childhood. It is modelled on the "Queenslander" style houses in the area. This is to assist with making the children feel like they are being cared for in a more home-like environment. The owner at the time had many memories of playing in the local "Kalinga" park.

Our centre boasts a beautiful homely environment and we pride ourselves on being one big family. We invite you to come and visit us anytime. We look forward to meeting you!

My name is Emily Ross, and I’ve been with Goodstart Clayfield since 2017.

I began my journey here as a trainee and have advanced through various roles, including Educator, Assistant Director and now, as your Centre Director.

I am deeply passionate about ensuring high-quality care for children, and I believe that fostering a positive team culture is essential to achieving this goal.

At Goodstart Clayfield, we strive to create a “home away from home”. We take great pride in the strong relationships we build with both children and their families, working together to provide the best possible start in life for every child.

I look forward to connecting with you and your family.
