About the Business
Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Port Road Cheltenham! Our establishment is located at 969 Port Road in Cheltenham, Australia. We are a point of interest and school that offers high-quality education and care for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years.
Our newly constructed centre features six separate, naturally inspired learning spaces that have been specifically designed to engage, challenge, and excite children at every stage of their development. Each learning space has direct access to our beautifully landscaped outdoor environment, allowing children to freely explore and move between indoor and outdoor activities.
One of the highlights of our centre is the outdoor dining hub, which connects our learning spaces to the playground and provides a shaded area for children to enjoy their meals. Our onsite kitchen, equipped with a child-height servery, allows our centre cook to interact with the children and engage them in cooking and meal preparation.
At Goodstart, we are committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating early learning environment. Our passionate and highly trained teaching staff use the Early Years Learning Framework to guide our education program and scaffold children's learning. We also offer a school readiness and transition to school program to ensure that children are well-prepared for their next educational journey.
In addition to our exceptional facilities and dedicated staff, we offer a holistic focus on the development of each child. Our child-centred, teacher-guided learning framework ensures that every child's individual needs and interests are taken into account. We also provide access to Storypark, an online learning portfolio that allows parents to stay connected with their child's progress and development.
Meals, nappies, wipes, cot linen, and sunscreen are provided at no extra charge, and our onsite qualified cook prepares fresh and nutritious meals daily, catering to all dietary requirements.
To make drop off and pick up time safe and convenient, we have a dedicated carpark with 28 spaces accessible from Cricksdale Street, which exits onto Port Road. We also have a bus stop located next to our centre for easy access.
We are proud to be a part of the Goodstart Early Learning family, Australia's largest early learning provider and a proud not-for-profit organization. We are committed to creating a warm and welcoming community-focused centre, and we look forward to building meaningful relationships with our families and children.

Reviews
"I cannot praise this centre enough! The care provided here is EXCEPTIONAL. I have been to multiple childcares now in order to find the right one and finally I can say I have never had a better experience. Each child's learning is approached to your child's individual needs, they take their time to ensure theyre treated as an individual and not just another number. The approach is treated as a family and you can only praise and praise how much effort is put into their learning approach and welcoming, warm atmosphere. No matter the area each teacher willl welcome you with open arms (even if they dont have your child as in their room) I know each and every day my son is in good hands. Kate's approach to pre school education program is exceptional and each day my son comes home with something new hes learnt and nothing but a smile. No matter the problem, big or small they will inform you of your child's day and keep you up to date of everything instead of leaving it till the end of the day, you know they care. Are flexible and always willing to accommodate to your last minute bookings or swap around with bookings. Keep doing all that you guys do because your hard work does not go unnoticed!"
"My daughter absolutely loves attending Goodstart. The educators take such great care of her, and she has learnt so much during her time there. They are great at communicating what the children have been up to each day. Would highly recommend this centre to anyone in the area :)"
"I was feeling a little anxious at the end of last year with so many familiar friendly staff members leaving the centre. My son Kobe started back this year fresh to the toddler room. He loves it β€ The staff have been amazing & super helpful to him (& me) in this transition. Their communication has been excellent with me & there is nothing better than having your little boy excited to walk himself into his room in the morning!"
"Goodstart early learning at Cheltenham has been great since my daughter started going at about 9 months old, now 2 years old.She has developed so much as a person , speaking well , sharing with other children. The educators have been amazing through my daughters toilet training. I have always received great communication at pick ups."
"My son went here and my baby girl started here when she was one and half years and now she is 4 and half She always ready to go. She loves all educators. If someone is on leave then she always let me know about her. She is learning many things like drawing painting n alphabets. I always prefer to everyone Goodstart is the best I know. Highly recommend."
