Goodstart Little Mountain Mark Road West is a small three room centre, situated in a prime location with easy access to the town centre, the Caloundra Industrial Estate, and various local housing estates. The centre is tucked away in a low-traffic, quiet area, in close proximity to public and private schools, a local bus route and a shopping complex.

Our service caters for children from six weeks to five years of age. The centre was purpose-built and includes spacious classrooms and 3 separate playgrounds featuring sandpits, a rock river bed, a unique cubby house, swings, worm farms, thriving vegetable gardens and more.

Inside, all of the rooms from Nursery to Kindergarten provide a stimulating play-based curriculum which is developed line with the Early Years Learning Framework and the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines.

Our Storypark platform, as well as family information nights and emailed newsletters, enable us to stay in close contact with parents and families, ensuring open and clear communication. This also means we can tailor programmes to meet individual needs, interests and strengths while working collaboratively with each individual family.

Our centre has close ties with community groups, including inclusion support services and local schools allowing us to provide best outcomes for children in our community.

We strive to establish long lasting relationships with each family and welcome parents to stay and play at drop off and pick up or at any other time convenient to them. Feedback is encouraged and taken on board as we continuously strive to make our centre a home away from home.

Our centre boasts a team of qualified, passionate, highly experienced, friendly staff who are dedicated to ensuring that we provide the highest quality care.

In 2017 Goodstart Mark Rd West was rated as Exceeding National Quality Standards in all areas by ACECQA.

We have an open-door policy and welcome prospective families to stop by and visit our beautiful centre and dedicated educators. We look forward to meeting you!
