An amazing team and management who go above and beyond for the children in all aspects. We couldn't be happier with our experience for our son.

My two sons have been attending Guardian childcare in Camperdown since the new refurbishment. We cannot speak highly enough of the centre and the staff here. We had transitioned from another daycare, and the boys' behaviour and willingness to attend have been night and day. The staff are always super accomodating and we feel that they make the effort to really get to know us as a family on a personal level. Giselle (centre manager) is really involved both from a managerial perspective as well as being hands on with the kids (this makes a huge difference to how the centre and staff run, in my opinion, from past experiences at other centres). The in house chef prepares very nutritious meals, they've even managed to get my son to start eating his vegetables! We are so glad we made the change for the boys. Highly recommend!

We have been sending our two children to the newly refurbished Camperdown Guardian since February this year and we’ve been delighted! Our Children (and my husband and I!) love the staff and the facilities are so fresh and new! There is plenty of space and the rooftop garden is a hidden gem with plenty of room for the kids to run around in the fresh air. The staff are kind, attentive and supportive of the kids development. The in house chef also gives instagram style updates of the delicious and healthy food she serves up everyday which is a great piece of mind when it comes to the kids nutrition. Highly recommend!

My son, who was new to this country and the English Language, could not settle at all at another child care centre because their director suggested us to send him to the centre full day from day 2 without any parents companion. After 2 weeks of frustration and crying we had to remove him from that centre and that's when we found Guardian in Camperdown. The director was obviously more experienced. She said because of the new environment, language and people my son can easily gets overwhelmed. We should do this step by step, be there with him for at least 1 week and start from half day. We took her suggestion and with the help of the other lovely teachers, my son settled beautifully.

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.
-
Morning
Handover time with children, families and our friendly Educators. There’s a chance to share what’s important for the day and any news from home.
-
Morning
Breakfast time where families are welcome to stay and enjoy breakfast with the children.
-
Morning
An opportunity to play and discover with open-plan play in family groups and multi-age groupings.
-
Morning
Planned experiences. This is where the Guardian difference comes to life. Alongside our Educators your child’s exploration leads to learnings in numeracy, literacy, language, critical thinking, problem solving, leadership, social skills, technology, creative arts and much more.
-
Morning tea
An opportunity for children to come together for a healthy snack, often they help prepare their food alongside our carers and cook.
-
Mid-morning
Individually tailored to your child’s needs and curiosity the planned experiences continue, this includes both indoor and outdoor programs.
-
Lunch
Another nutritious meal expertly prepared by our cook. Families are invited to join the children for meals and excursions if they wish.
-
Afternoon
If your child wants to, or needs to sleep, it’s time to rest and recharge. For children who don’t need to rest the planned experiences continue, in most cases outdoors.
-
Afternoon tea
Another chance for the children to come together and re-fuel in small groups. There is also an opportunity to rest or play together and reflect on the day.
-
Pick-up
As you arrive to pick up your child, there’s a chance to speak with our Educators and share news about the day. Our Storypark App also allows you to stay in touch 24/7 wherever you are.
-
End of day
Your child is encouraged to grab a light snack before they leave the centre. We’re mindful of how routines vary, throughout the day if we notice your child looking tired food will be provided.

Our Educators expand_more
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.
You and Your Child expand_more
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.
Learn More About Our Centre expand_more
Our Camperdown centre offers a range of experiences through our childcare education program. Our curriculum is modelled on the National Early Learning Years Framework which recognises the value of investing in the first five years of a child’s life and the vital role that educators play in child development
We aim to cater for children’s individual routines by practicing consistency between families’ homes and the centres and by talking to parents about changes as children grow. Our flexible structure allows children to become familiar and comfortable before transitioning to the challenges of their new learning environment as they grow. Our extensive rooftop playground provides children with a stimulating environment to extend themselves while engaging with the wonders of the outdoor environment.
We ensure that all children have the opportunity for imagination, to achieve and experience a variety of developmentally appropriate activities in environments designed for growing bodies and creative minds.
