Goodstart Early Learning North Ryde is conveniently located in Macquarie Shopping Centre, close to North Ryde business parks. Our centre serves many working parents in the area and welcomes families from diverse cultural backgrounds, promoting multiculturalism.
We offer early learning for up to 53 children daily, from Nursery to Preschool, in rooms designed for planned and play-based learning experiences. Our curriculum follows the Early Years Learning Framework, tailored to each child’s needs and interests. We focus on social and emotional wellbeing, literacy, and numeracy, ensuring a smooth transition to school. Our team includes Bachelor-qualified teachers and experienced educators who have been with us since our opening in 2005. To best support children’s settlement, we offer 3 free of charge orientations before their official starting date.
Goodstart North Ryde is dedicated to inclusion, supporting children from diverse backgrounds and those with additional needs. We work closely with KU Inclusion Support Agency and utilize government-funded programs to provide the best care and education.
We use the Storypark platform for open communication with families, allowing us to customize programs to each child's needs, interests, and strengths.
Our on-site cook prepares nutritious meals, catering to all allergies and dietary requirements, including purees and soft foods for younger children.
Community engagement is important to us. We enrich children's learning through regular excursions to Macquarie Shopping Centre and local community visits, including interactions with Aboriginal and Indigenous community members, dentists, and the local library.

Hello, My name is Echo, and I am the Centre Director at Goodstart North Ryde.
I am delighted to work with the children, families, and educators at Goodstart North Ryde. I hold a Master of Teaching (Birth to 5 years) from Western Sydney University and a Bachelor of Media from Macquarie University.
With over eight years of experience in the Early Childhood sector, I've had the privilege of working with children and families across all age groups. I am passionate about my job and dedicate significant time and energy to it. My teaching philosophy is deeply influenced by Jean Piaget's theory, which emphasizes that cognitive development involves constructing a mental model of the world, not just acquiring knowledge.
As a Centre Director and Early Childhood Teacher, I understand the profound and lasting impact of early years on children and families. I am honored to be part of this vital work.
At Goodstart North Ryde, we pride ourselves on providing a supportive and inclusive environment for children and families from diverse cultural backgrounds. We cherish a love of learning in a welcoming setting that nurtures each child's unique personality.
My team and I look forward to meeting you and your family.
