My name is Amy Hume and I have been working with Goodstart since 2001. I am extremely passionate about caring for our children as well as leading my staff.

We have a great team of staff with an immense amount of experience and knowledge which we use to help children grow in a happy and safe environment. I believe that children should grow at their own pace and in their own time. My team always ensures that we cater for all the needs of our families and children. I also have two young children of my own, a daughter born in 2008 and a son born in 2011.

I always look forward to meeting new people and encourage you to book in a tour to view our beautiful centre.
