Families are being encouraged to step inside the day of a child during our 2026 Tour Month, that is now underway.
The Tour Month is showcasing how our centres support children to learn, play and grow and will bring to light our exclusive To BE Me learning program.
The tours are also a chance for families to see first-hand the significant upgrades to centres in recent years, enhanced child safety measures and the Nutrition for Life healthy food initiative.
Chief Network Officer Sharon Whiteman said centre teams were proud of their centres and loved showing them to children and families.
“We want children to have safe, inspiring spaces where they can be comfortable and confident, be themselves and grow at their own pace,” she said.
“We strive to care more about everything we do and give children and families a premium, fun and engaging experience.
“Our centres go well beyond childcare or ‘child minding’. The experience is something truly special you can do for your child.”
Ms Whiteman said To BE Me, the individualised learning program designed around each child’s age, stage, and interests, meant families could see and understand their child’s progress every step of the way, with every milestone recorded so it can be kept as a keepsake for the future.
To BE Me also demystifies the link between play-based activities and learning to read, write and understand numbers.
Ms Whiteman said child safety was always the first priority at Guardian and we were committed to reassuring families that our child safety standards were above the regulatory requirements.
“We want parents to know that we are not just focused on meeting government requirements – our focus is on keeping every child as safe and happy as possible every day,” Ms Whiteman said.
She said Nutrition for Life was our response to families telling us that they want their children to not only have healthy and interesting food, but to learn good food habits that will carry through to later life.
“Most of our centres have professional chefs and they put an incredible amount of time and effort into the variety and quality of the food – and the kids love to get involved with that.”
“We have also invested heavily in creating calm and nurturing baby rooms, building a team of highly trained Baby Ambassadors and supporting families of young babies through the early life stages.”
Ms Whiteman said our centres had everything included in the fees – meals, nappies, hat, wet bag, and all learning programs – helping to make daily life simpler for families.
Many centres still have vacancies for 2026 and most centres still had available slots for family tours.
