Guardian Childcare & Education Wanniassa

Every day is an opportunity for discovery and growth at Guardian Childcare & Education Wanniassa. With a range of exciting, resource-rich environments including an open-plan, co-age outdoor space where our exciting programs come to life. As part of the sustainability program, the centre also has vegetable gardens, a compost bin, a worm farm and an active recycling program.

Our on-site chef prepares five nutritionally balanced meals using seasonal ingredients every day. To further explore food at the centre, the chef runs fortnightly cooking lessons and has a designated spot for children to sit and watch her cook.

Rhythm of The Day

With endless possibilities, there’s never a dull moment at Guardian and no two days are the same. Here’s what a day at Guardian might look like. Please note, this will vary depending on centre opening hours.

  • From 6:30am

    Handover time with children, families and our friendly Educators. There's a chance for conversation to share what's important for the day/what's happened the night before at home.

  • From 7:00am

    Breakfast time where families are welcome to stay and enjoy breakfast with the children.

  • Morning

    As children are arriving and families are coming and going, there's an opportunity for play as well as family grouping, open-plan play and multi-age grouping.

  • Morning

    As the children come together, planned experiences begin. This is where the Guardian programs and practices come to life. Examples of learning include numeracy, literacy, language, critical thinking, problem solving, leadership, social skills, technology, science, creative arts, curiosity and more.

  • Morning

    There's an opportunity for children to come together and enjoy morning tea.

  • Mid-morning

    Following morning tea, the planned experiences continue. This includes both indoor and outdoor programs.

  • Afternoon

    There's an opportunity for children to come together for lunch. With an open-door policy, families are able to join the centre for meals and excursion if they wish.

  • Afternoon

    For children who want to, or need to, there's an opportunity to sleep, rest or relax. For children who don't need to rest, there are planned experiences, which are more likely to be outdoors.

  • Afternoon

    Children come together for afternoon tea in small groups or with siblings (they can also rest and play together, too). This time also presents an opportunity to reflect on the day.

  • End of the day

    As families arrive to pick up children, there's an opportunity to speak to Educators and share information about the day.

  • End of the day

    Some centres offer early tea or light snack at the end of the day, which they can grab as they leave the centre. We’re mindful of how routines vary at home, so if throughout the day, we notice children look tired, food will be provided.

Learn More About Our Centre

Guardian Childcare & Education Wanniassa offers plenty of open space for children to explore, move and play throughout the day. An abundance of natural light floods the open planned centre, creating a warm and bright environment. Outside, the well-kept play yard features natural stones, grassed spaces, trees and sandpits that promote discovery and adventure.

Quality educational resources keep the standard of learning high, with an experienced and established team that are experts in their field. Each and every one of our educators is passionate about helping our children learn, grow and develop confidence in their abilities.

Clear and frequent communication with families is paramount, and we pride ourselves on the strong relationships we have built as a result. Our dedicated resource room provides a private space for educators and families to meet, or for families to relax.

Our on-site cooks prepare delicious meals that are rotated with each new season. All meals are nutritious, balanced, and cater to all tastes and preferences.
