ABC Learning Centres is now owned and operated by the not-for-profit syndicate GoodStart Childcare Limited, marking a new chapter for our organisation, our staff and our families. We’re looking toward a bright future as we work together with families and communities to improve the quality and access of early childhood services for Australia’s children.



More than just a job

We understand that the care and education we offer is only as good as the staff who provide it. As such, we are committed to extensive and ongoing investment in our staff so that they may realise their full potential as early learning professionals. This promise is delivered through structured personal and professional development programs and free access to nationally recognised training courses at GoodStart Training College.



However, working at ABC is more than just an opportunity for career development. Our industry offers priceless rewards that cannot be found elsewhere. At ABC you’re part of an extensive community; a network of colleagues with which to share your joys and challenges; a caring culture underpinned by our values integrity, excellence and respect, supporting your growth as carers, teachers, professionals, and people.




Our Team

ABC people are special people. They’re friendly, professional, innovative, and approach things with a positive and caring nature. Our team is 14,000 strong and spread across over 660 centres in local communities across Australia. At ABC, we work together as a team to provide the top quality care our families expect. This teamwork is both rewarding to the individual and vital to ABC’s success. Equally, we are structured so that each individual may shine in his or her role. It’s the contribution of each and every team member that makes a team successful, and so we recognise, value and reward the hard work and commitment of the individual as well as the team.



Our Centre carers and teachers are early childhood professionals who are dedicated to the wellbeing and development of every individual child in their care. Our carers bring their own special skills, personality and know-how to the classroom, which enhances the experience for child and carer alike.
