We provide care for children aged six weeks to five years old - in rooms from Nursery to Kindergarten, with a university qualified Early Childhood Teacher. Our play and sensory based curriculum is developed in line with the Early Years' Learning Framework, accounting for the individual needs and interests of each child.
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.

At Goodstart Forest Lake Boulevard we believe that communication is key to building long and stable relationships with children and their families. Our child care centre engages in many different forms of communication with families, such as emails, printed memos, notice boards and monthly newsletters.
Our Storypark platform also 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 seven playgrounds across the two buildings. These have sandpits, garden beds, vege patches, cubbyhouses, natural elements 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.
Our child care centre has created many strong community connections within Forest Lake and the wider area. As a result we openly involve the community in the centre through introducing wildlife, gardening, sustainability and fitness shows on a regular basis.
Art and music experiences - as well as other extra-curricular activities - are provided on a daily basis which allow the children to freely express their creativity.
