At Goodstart Warnbro South, 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 Goodstart Warnbro South centre, we're proud to inspire your child's love of learning with the support of our passionate and qualified Early Childhood Teacher. 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  
- Discounted shorter 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.

Hello, my name is Jessica, and I’m proud to be the Centre Director at Goodstart Warnbro South.

I’ve been working in Early Childhood Education since 2006, but my passion for working with children began much earlier. As a little girl, I always imagined myself becoming a teacher—or at one point, even a veterinarian (though I quickly realised that one wasn’t quite for me!). What truly captured my heart was the joy and purpose I found in early education.

After completing my Diploma in Early Childhood Education, I began building a strong foundation in the sector—learning, growing, and deepening my understanding of how children develop, learn, and connect with the world. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with families, children, educators, and our wider community.

I started my career as a lead educator, which allowed me to develop my skills in programming meaningful learning experiences and supporting children’s growth in all developmental areas. As my journey continued, I embraced leadership roles such as Educational Leader, Assistant Director, Safety Officer, and now Centre Director.

Each role has helped shape the educator and leader I am today—giving me a clear vision of the kind of centre I want to lead: one where children, families, and educators feel valued, supported, and inspired.
Becoming a mother myself added a powerful new perspective to my work. I often ask myself, “What kind of centre would I want my own children to be a part of?” This question fuels my commitment to creating a nurturing, inclusive, and safe environment where children feel secure and confident to explore, take risks, make messes, and, most importantly, have fun.

At Goodstart Warnbro South, we believe a childcare centre is more than just a place—it’s a community. A place where children are encouraged to become the best versions of themselves, where learning is guided by curiosity, compassion, and play. Every moment counts, and the first five years of a child’s life lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning and wellbeing.

I warmly invite you to come and meet our dedicated team and experience the high-quality early learning environment we’ve built here at Goodstart Warnbro South. Book a tour—we’d love to welcome you.
