Guardian Childcare & Education Gungahlin

Our team of Educators are committed and passionate about ensuring your child will be safe, nurtured and cared for every day. At Guardian, children are encouraged to engage in interest-led play that creates learning and meaningful experiences.

Our Educators seek to optimise diverse learning opportunities and implement the Curriculum as framed by the Early Years Learning Framework.

All Guardian Centres provide a Centre-to-Family communication platform so families can maintain contact with their children’s experiences through photos, stories and learning outcomes.

Our Centres use Storypark and each family is provided with a secure login to access on their computers, mobiles or apps.

The leading curriculum supports discovery and gives children the best start to life, as well as being aligned with the National Quality Standard.  

Through our high-quality preschool program, children have the opportunity to learn some of the skills that are often only introduced in early primary school. We begin learning and exploring shapes, numbers and letters through fun, play-based activities. Each preschool Teacher is an expert in creating engaging activities that support each child to learn and discover the world while having their individual needs cared for.  

At our nearby childcare centre in Canberra, we focus on developing each child’s literacy and numeracy skills, building their confidence as they embark on their journey into primary school.

We are passionate about children’s nutrition. Our on-site cook prepares fresh, nutrient-packed meals every day, ensuring children receive the energy they need to thrive. We engage children in food preparation and teach them about where their food comes from, why it’s good for them, and how to enjoy it. By exploring the cultural heritage behind different cuisines, we promote diversity and inclusion from an early age.  

With our unique Visible Learning Program, families gain insight into their child’s education journey.
