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 Noble Park 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 three and four-year-old 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:  
We work closely with parents to ensure the individual needs, interests and strengths of children are considered, and our learning goals reflect them.

I hold a Bachelor of Commerce from Bangalore University and a Bachelor of Early Childhood Teaching from Swinburne University. I have been working with ABC Learning/Goodstart Early Learning since 2007 and have been the Centre Director at Goodstart Noble Park since 2021. I bring over 18 years of experience in the Early Childhood sector, including 9 years in Centre Director roles.
My Early Learning Values
I am passionate about creating an inclusive and inspiring learning environment where every child feels heard, respected, and empowered to share their ideas. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, valued, and supported to explore their curiosity with confidence. I strongly believe that children learn best through play. Through high-quality educational programs, children are encouraged to learn at their own pace while engaging in rich opportunities to explore their environment.
I value strong, respectful partnerships with families and believe that open communication and collaboration are central to each child’s success. By working together, we can support children’s learning and development in meaningful and consistent ways.
What I Love About Our Community
I truly cherish the people, places, and relationships that make our community so special. The strong sense of belonging and the supportive networks around us are what make this community thrive. Through collaborative partnerships with families and the wider community, we work together to provide each child with the foundations they need to grow and develop into confident, capable, and resilient young people.
A Little More About Me
Outside of work, I love travelling, watching movies and spending quality time with my family and my two dogs.
Why Your Child Should Spend the Day With Me
At Goodstart Noble Park, from the moment your child arrives, they are welcomed into a warm and nurturing “home away from home,” where learning is hands-on, joyful, and thoughtfully tailored to support each child’s individual growth and development. Together, we celebrate children’s cultures, discoveries, and unique strengths, while encouraging curiosity and building the confidence they need to shine.
I am proud to work alongside a passionate and dedicated team who share a commitment to supporting every child and family within our community.
