About our centre
Operating since 2004, Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Moonee Beach is located in a small beachside suburb, north of Coffs Harbour. Many of our families live in the surrounding beaches from Woolgoolga, Emerald Beach, Sandy Beach, Bucca and Sapphire.
We are a small 51-place child care centre with three rooms – Nursery for children aged six weeks to two years; Toddler Room for children aged two to three-and-a-half years and our Kindergarten / Preschool room which prepares children ages three-and-a-half to school age for the big step into primary school.
We have a qualified cook in the kitchen and all meals are provided, so your children are sure to have plenty of nourishment and energy to make it through a big day of fun, play and learning.
Our centre has large open play spaces and we are developing a garden area for the children to connect with the natural environment and experience firsthand how to promote sustainability.
Our qualified educators create a stimulating program based upon the Early Years Learning Framework. Each week our educators reflect on their teaching practices, the physical environment and the individual needs of each child to promote learning and quality outcomes. Each child has a developmental profile and a beautiful portfolio that we give to our families at the end of each year.
Our educators work closely with families and the community, to create connections that assist children in their transition to school. As parents are children’s primary caregivers we feel the huge sense of respect and responsibility that they place trust in our skills as Early Childhood Educators, and will always strive to develop a strong partnership that supports their child’s needs.
We promote open communication and the sharing of important information. Parents are encouraged to share ideas and perspectives, and help make decisions about classroom life and curriculum. Families should always feel free to visit at any time.
So pop in and say hello, meet our team and see how we can help you give your child the best possible start in life.

Sasha Shenker
Centre Director
Welcome! My name is Sasha and I am the Centre Director here at Goodstart Moonee Beach.
I have a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and care and with 15 years of experience with children aged 0-5 years, I am thrilled to step into the role of Centre Director and be part of this wonderful community. Throughout my career, I have been deeply passionate about fostering an environment where every child is seen as a unique individual, with their own strengths, interests, and potential. I believe that by embracing each child's individuality, we can help them grow, learn, and thrive to their fullest.
At Moonee Beach we believe that strong relationships and meaningful social connections between children, families, and educators are at the heart of everything we do. We know that children thrive when they learn from those they trust and feel closest to.
I am committed to creating a nurturing, inclusive, and stimulating space where both children and families feel valued, supported, and inspired every day. I look forward to building strong relationships with you and your little ones as we work together to create an enriching educational journey.
Our team of passionate, experienced, and diverse educators warmly invites you to visit our centre. Come see how we can become a supportive extension of your family and play an important role in your child’s learning and development journey.
