About our centre

Goodstart Early Learning Glendale is located in a safe and convenient residential area, close to local schools, shops and community services, as well as public transport. Our service was built in 2006 and caters for children 6 weeks of age to five years, across six rooms, with two large nature based playgrounds.  

We create daily programs for children using the Early Years Learning Framework as the foundation for each program, and in turn we take into account children’s interests, culture, and abilities to meet all individual needs. Each room offers a flexible routine, and engaging environments for all children, incorporating age appropriate challenges, and a variety of different learning opportunities throughout each day such as Bush Kindy.
 
We believe that relationships are key at Glendale, and we pride ourselves on the strong, reciprocal relationships we have built via the key educator approach with children and families that attend our service, and also the local community. In addition to this, the Echo (Enhancing Children’s Outcomes) social inclusion program our centre is involved in, allows our service onsite access to a child and family practitioner, occupational therapist and speech therapist who work closely with educators to strengthen their professional knowledge and importantly, enhance children’s outcomes for school and life.

We use Storypark to document children’s learning, newsletters, and the upcoming and past participation in community events. 
 
All meals are prepared on site by our qualified cook who uses tasty, fresh and nutritional ingredients – just the thing to keep hungry tummies satisfied.

We invite you to come in have a tour of our lovely centre, and meet out amazing educators. We look forward to meeting you in the near future.

Lauren Pitts

Centre Director

Hi, my name is Lauren Pitts and I am the Centre Director of Goodstart Early Learning Glendale.

I hold a Bachelor of Teaching, and I have had the pleasure of working for Goodstart Early Learning in various local centres for 13 years, 3 of those years at our amazing Glendale centre. I also have three children of my own – boys, never cease to amaze me with what they can achieve.

At the heart of my philosophy, I believe that relationships are key in ensuring that children have the best possible start in life. It is with this in mind, that I strive to build and maintain strong, reciprocal relationships with children, families, educators and the community, to work together in providing great experiences, opportunities, and a safe and secure environment where children can thrive, learn and develop.

Please visit our lovely centre and our wonderful team of passionate and dedicated educators!

We can’t wait to meet you and your child/children.
