Townsville teacher's tips on regional work and living
Early childhood teacher Kylie Ryan of Goodstart Kirwan Golf Links Drive shares her insights.
We offer 2 years of kinder. That's two years of continued high-quality early learning, playing and making friends. Everything your child needs to feel ready for school.
My background:
I began my journey straight out of high school and started studding my Certificate III, which ignited my passion for early learning. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to complete my Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, and my advanced diploma, lead nursery and toddler rooms and develop from Assistant Director to Centre Director.
My early childhood philosophy:
I believe all children families and staff should be nurtured, heard and welcomed into a safe and happy centre. For me, it's all about ensuring children and families are included and feel welcome in a centre that is culturally safe for them.
What I love most about Goodstart Brunswick West:
What makes Goodstart Brunswick West so special is the strong sense of community you feel the moment you walk through our doors. With just three rooms and one shared yard, our children aren’t separated—they grow, play, and learn together. It creates this beautiful, family-like atmosphere where friendships blossom across age groups, and everyone knows each other by name. It truly feels like one big extended family, and that’s what sets us apart.
My commitment to you:
As centre director, my door is always open to families. I'm here to ensure your child's experience with us is nurturing, educational, and fun. I believe in transparent communication and building partnerships with parents to support each child's journey.
Come and say 'Hi'
I look forward to welcoming you and your family to Goodstart Brunswick West. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, or better yet, book a tour to see firsthand the wonderful environment we've created for our children. Together, we can make these early years enriching and memorable.
