About Goodstart Early Learning Hawthorne
Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Hawthorne! Located on a quiet street in the leafy suburb of Hawthorne, our centre is housed in a beautiful heritage-listed Church building built in c1910. With easy access to public transport, nearby parks, and the bustling Oxford Street in Bulimba, our location is ideal for families.
At Goodstart Hawthorne, we cater to children from 15 months to school age, providing a family-oriented environment where parents can have peace of mind as their children embark on their learning journey. Our dedicated team of educators, many of whom have been with us for years, are highly qualified, experienced, and passionate about supporting the growth and development of each child.
Our play-based curriculum is founded on the Early Years' Learning Framework, ensuring that every child's individual interests, needs, and strengths are accounted for. From Toddlers to Kindergarten, our rooms are thoughtfully set up to create engaging and colorful learning environments. In our Kindergarten program, a Bachelor qualified Early Childhood Teacher delivers a government-funded learning program based on the Queensland Kindergarten Learning guidelines.
To stay connected with families, we utilize the Storypark online platform, enabling consistent and clear communication. Through Storypark, we can support children's learning journeys, provide parents with peace of mind, and document children's milestones and achievements.
Our outdoor play spaces are designed to encourage a deeper understanding of the environment and sustainability. With a focus on sustainability, we have 'Bushtucker' gardens, a worm farm, and a chicken coup. Children love feeding the chickens and worms and participating in gardening activities throughout the day.
Nutritious meals are provided for our children, with menus consisting of fresh quality produce that caters to all dietary and cultural needs. We also supply Huggies nappies and wipes as part of our daily fees.
As the Centre Director, I am committed to providing the best possible start in life for all children. With over 15 years of experience in the Early Childhood sector and a strong understanding of the industry, I am dedicated to our vision of changing the world one heart and mind at a time.
Goodstart is Australia's largest early learning provider and a proud not-for-profit organization. We have been recognized as a Child Safe Organisation and are committed to reconciliation, inclusion, sustainability, and preparing children for school.

Reviews of Goodstart Early Learning Hawthorne
"I am so grateful that we found Hawthorne Goodstart. Kate is the director and her team of professional and talented educators have been a great fit for our 2.5y.o daughter who is does 4-days a week in Senior Toddler. We moved to Brisbane from Sydney almost a year ago and I applied to several childcares in advance. Hawthorne Goodstart stood out as the best value for money - professional, hard-working, friendly, safe, good humour, and down-to-earth culture. I get the sense that there is something special about this particular goodstart centre. I hear stories about other Goodstarts in Brisbane that sound nothing like the high quality of care we get with Kate and her staff. The renovated chapel gives a warm homely feel and there is plenty of space indoors and outdoors as well as chickens. The educators know their stuff from the detailed posts on Story Park about their observations of your child and how they are tailoring your childs learning programs. The staff are very polite and appear to love their jobs which is a sign of good organisational culture. The other parents are also very kind and sociable with the odd get-togethers throughout the year. Highly recommend having a tour."
"Our family is very happy with this daycare. The quality of care is the best, the educators are genuinely invested in the children’s happiness, wellbeing and learning. The director is amazing and has created a great little community. The facilities are clean, very rarely any illnesses, and communication between families and staff is frequent."
"My daughter has been attending Goodstart Hawthorne since she was 15 months old (now 22 months) and we love it. The director (Kate) & educators have all been so approachable, caring and supportive of my daughter and the other little ones. The environment is lovely and clean with decent indoor & outdoor areas (with chickens and a veggie patch!). The daily programme follows the same structure however activities are varied which is great for curious little learners & adventurers alike. Highly recommend!"
"We couldn’t recommend this daycare more, and the reason is simple: the staff. When you find a daycare where all the staff members are so caring, lovely, committed to their job and with a positive attitude every time I go pick up my kid, it is priceless. Definitely the difference is marked by the employees and how they treat the kids and the amount of feedback provided to us the parents. 100% recommended and thanks once again to all the wonderful educators of Goodstart Hawthorne ♥️"
"As new parents, we had no experience with Daycare Centers. It was difficult to choose a centre. We wanted a place that would be safe, educational, and close to home. We found what we were looking for. Our daughter is being cared for by people that truly care about her and want to see her to well in life. We love to hear and look at photos daily about the things that she is experiencing and learning. We appreciate very much that the educators are teaching and not just "watching" her. Everyone at Goodstart in Hawthorne are very caring and lovely. My little girl gets so excited every Monday to go to her daycare."
