  • At Goodstart Warwick – Wood Street, our philosophy centres around the belief that every child is a unique individual with their own interests and strengths. We embrace a play-based learning approach that nurtures curiosity and creativity, allowing children to explore their world in meaningful ways.  

    We prioritise:  

    1. Holistic Development: Supporting cognitive, emotional, social, and physical growth through engaging and developmentally appropriate activities. 
    2. Family and Community Engagement: Building strong partnerships with families and the community to create a supportive network for each child. 
    3. Inclusive Environment: Celebrating diversity and ensuring that all children feel valued, respected, and included. 
    4. Lifelong Learning: Instilling a love of learning by encouraging exploration, problem-solving, and critical thinking. 

    Through our philosophy, we aim to create a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive and become confident, capable learners.  

  • Children need to feel safe and supported to learn and grow, so we promote key educator relationships between our educators and children. Your child will have at least one educator (their key educator) who takes them under their wing and really gets to know them.  

    Our Key Educator relationships help children form secure attachments. Educators work closely with smaller groups and individual children to better understand each child. These relationships lead to improved outcomes for children as we foster more communication between families and educators.  

    We inform families regularly about their child's progress and welcome family involvement in our centre events and activities.   

  • At our Warwick – Wood Street centre, we're proud to inspire your child's love of learning with the support of our passionate and qualified early childhood experts. Teachers with bachelor's degrees run our kindergarten program, so children can be well on their way to excellent learning outcomes by the time they start school.  

  • At Goodstart, we believe all children deserve the best possible start in life, which includes access to high-quality early childhood education and care. We offer:   

    • Discounts on multiple days  
    • All day sessions  
    • Fee assistance programs for families that need support
  • We work closely with parents to ensure the individual needs, interests and strengths of children are considered, and our learning goals reflect them. Using Storypark, a wonderful communication platform, we stay in close touch with families and ensure you're well informed about your child's development and achievements.

Centre Director
My name is Kirstine Moncada, and I am the Centre Director at Goodstart – Warwick Wood Street.
I have proudly served as Centre Director at our Warwick- Wood Street location for over five years and have worked within the early childhood sector for more than 20 years. For the past nine years, I have held Centre Director roles with Goodstart Early Learning. Throughout my career, I have gained experience across a variety of early learning settings, including both private and not-for-profit services, and have undertaken diverse roles that have shaped my leadership approach.

I hold a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, as well as a Diploma of Business. I am passionate about leading our centre and working collaboratively with our dedicated team to ensure every child within our community feels supported, valued, and inspired to learn.

I strongly believe that it takes a village to raise a child, and I am deeply committed to fostering an inclusive environment where all children have access to high-quality education and care. Equally important to me is ensuring that families feel welcomed, respected, and confident within our centre. We maintain close partnerships with local community organisations that support our children and families.

At Goodstart Warwick-Wood Street, we strive to provide a safe, inclusive, and engaging environment that encourages children to explore the world around them while learning through play and meaningful experiences.

Outside of the centre, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing netball, and supporting my children at their sporting and music activities. My door is always open, and I warmly invite you to visit and tour our beautiful centre.
