Welcome to Goodstart Mount Martha - Dunns Road

A trusted part of the Mount Martha community for more than 20 years, Goodstart Mount Martha Craigie Road has entered an exciting new chapter with the move from our long-loved early learning centre to a beautiful new purpose-built home just down the road on the corner of Dunns Road.

While our location has changed, the things our families value most remain the same: the familiar educators, the nurturing relationships and the genuine sense of belonging that has supported generations of local children. In fact, some members of our team have been caring for Mount Martha families for more than two decades.

Designed around the way children learn, play and grow, our new centre features thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor learning spaces where babies, toddlers and kindergarten children can explore, create, build confidence and thrive.

At Goodstart Mount Martha Dunns Road, we're proud to continue the trusted care and quality early learning that local families know and love, now in a modern environment created to support the next generation of learners.

Our experienced and caring team creates meaningful learning experiences through play, exploration and connection, helping children feel safe, confident and ready to learn and grow..

We'd love to welcome your family and show you our beautiful new early learning centre.

To book a tour, contact our Family Services Team on 1800 222 543.

Hi, my name is Avril Hart and I’m the Centre Director at Goodstart Mount Martha Dunns Rd.

I’ve been part of the Goodstart Early Learning family for more than 15 years, working across a number of Goodstart centres and in a variety of educational roles with children of all ages. I hold a Diploma in Children’s Services and, above all, have a genuine passion for helping children learn, grow and feel confident in who they are, giving every child the best possible start in life.

I believe the early years are such an important and influential time in a child’s life. It’s a privilege to work alongside families during these precious years – getting to know each child, celebrating their individual strengths and interests, and creating a safe, caring and nurturing environment where they can thrive.

As we begin this exciting new chapter at our lovely new Goodstart Mount Martha Dunns Rd centre, I’m looking forward to welcoming families through our doors, getting to know our community and continuing to build the strong connections that make our centre feel like a place where families truly belong.

I look forward to meeting you and your family and being part of your child’s early learning journey.
