Goodstart Early Learning Linden Park is situated approximately three kilometres from the CBD and within easy reach of the Adelaide Hills. We are located opposite the Burnside Village. We are a small, family, friendly centre providing care for ten babies and 27 children aged between two and five years. Nutritious meals and snacks are provided for the children, freshly prepared by our cook each day.

At Goodstart Early Learning Linden Park our carers pride themselves on providing a safe and caring environment, with a quality educational program to help foster all areas of development.

We encourage children to have fun and build friendships in a safe, secure and well supervised learning environment.  We believe children learn through play and everyday experiences.

We offer our children a chance to experience activities in all areas including science, maths, computers, multicultural diversity and gender equality.All children have the right to an individual opinion, and are treated as individuals with unique personalities as we support them to grow and learn. We promote non-bias and cultural awareness to enhance children’s understanding of cultural and individual differences and similarities.

We welcome parent participation in our programs and our door is always open for our families to visit at any time.Our centre and staff play an important role in the lives of our families and we hope each family enjoys being a part of Goodstart Early Learning Linden Park. 
Jan Isaacson
Centre Director
My name is Jan Isaacson and I am proud to have worked at Goodstart Early Learning Linden Park for nine years. I have been the Centre Director for the past five years and prior to this I was the Team Leader in the Nursery. I am a qualified Mothercraft Nurse and have worked in childcare for the past 24 years.

Before working in childcare I worked in the nurseries of several maternity hospitals. Over the years I have seen many families come and go through our centre with many returning with their second, third and fourth child. It is extremely heart warming to watch the children grow and develop from a small baby in the nursery to a happy and confident person ready to go off to school and the next phase of their life. I always feel proud to have played a small part in this process. 

My aim is to ensure our centre provides a safe, secure and enjoyable experience for all children in our care. I believe that all children are unique and special; they should be treated with respect and treated as individuals with their own interests and beliefs. I love to see them grow and develop at their own pace and become their own person.
