The Centre:
Guardian Taringa is a single level centre, in the heart of Taringa, where you step out of the lift and into a safe space for children and teams. Enjoy the train line at your doorstep and our on-site parking. This centre has recently gone through A&R and also offers an open plan kitchen into the toddler space where the onsite chef is a regular pit stop for children and team to engage and connect. We have an exceptional long-standing Kindy Teacher with an incredible reputation with the local primary schools and two spacious outdoor learning spaces.
If you’re ready to run your own centre that is a ‘home away from home’, your journey begins here.
