Our daughter joined the Guardian child care & education acacia gardens East at 4months, this facility did me wonders by being the guardian our little daughter needed, They’ve technically gently raised her for us and she is already exhibiting extreme polite manners like thank you, nock nock etc ,at 19 months, ZERO incidents, Zero drama. I could go on & on…

Sincerely a happy & grateful mommy & daddy😊

This post is about gratitude. This great centre took care of my daughter and enabled her to be school ready by instilling great social and academic skills, teaching her how to excel by herself and in a group.

It was back when the centre opened couple of years back, when we moved her to this centre from another childcare. And without knowing the outcome, it was the best decision we took that time.

Thank you to the teachers for being a part of my daughter's early childhood. She remembers you everyday.

I’ve had a wonderful experience with Acacia Guardian Childcare East; every educator is incredibly helpful and supportive, and the children’s safety is always a top priority. Communication with the educators, centre manager, assistant manager, and educational leader is open and consistent, and they truly listen to the children’s needs. The food provided is freshly cooked each day and very healthy, including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack. Educators always ensure the children wear sunscreen before outdoor play, and they plan new experiences every day that support learning, growth, and exploration. My child has had a very positive experience here, and I will be continuing next year in the preschool room.

An outstanding daycare! From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt a very positive vibe. They treated my kid like their own. The staff are not only highly trained and attentive but also deeply compassionate and nurturing. The environment is welcoming and inclusive. It feels like a second home for us! 😊
Response from the owner:Reading this absolutely made our day. We’re so happy you felt that warm, welcoming vibe — that’s exactly what we hope every family experiences when they walk through our doors. Your little one is such a joy to have around, and it truly means a lot to us that you feel like this is a second home. Thanks for being part of our Guardian family — we love having you with us! Thank you Amita!

Guardian has been nothing but amazing! This centre have exceeded all expectations and I’m so glad my daughter has been able to spend her last year in childcare here - guardian have a great pre school program and my daughter is more than ready for school next year. I have been blown away by the educators, the program, the special celebration days, the meals and the communication from the centre- thank you so much

The centre is good overall, educators seem empathetic and consider parents requests. No red flags so far. One thing i really appreciate is their no shoe policy in nursery, where kids are always on the floor. Top notch hygiene.
The onboarding exercise wasn’t great though. I would have appreciated better comms especially after being on the waitlist for well over a year.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the awesome review, Roz! We work hard to meet expectations like yours, and always strive to find ways to improve our centres. Glad to you hear you have had such a great experience!

I have taken some time to write my review as originally I thought this centre is too good to be true and maybe it’s all so good because it’s only early weeks. How wrong was I?!! If I could give it 10 stars I would. With my line of work I am super aware, critical and have been exposed to the complete opposite of this centre. However thankfully I made the decision to take the plunge and change my children to Guardian Acacia Gardens East- seriously has amazing management and staff. They are so caring for every child as an individual, so professional and knowledgeable. The manager Nithia is the nicest approachable understanding manager I have ever met and I have met quite a few. Nithia, Elise and Praveen hold a tight ship and are always helping and checking in on their rooms. Highly recommend this centre to anyone & everyone!

This Daycare is an amazing, clean, with great and very welcoming Staff, amazing food Menus every week so that kids can explore variety of foods and I couldn’t ask for anything better. My daughter is here from just 3 months but she loves it and got settled so soon.
NITYA ( Center Manager ) is such a lovely and welcoming person. All the educators are awesome specially HARI SHUKLA AND RANJANA GUPTA from babies room. They all are absolutely loving. I can see my daughter more happier, confident, willing to go to daycare, learning new things and growing and hugging every Educator before leaving.

I am grateful, thankful and very happy to be in Gaurdian Acaia garden east family where i know my baby will be taken care of. Thank you once again.

My kid started few weeks back, we moved from another childcare in hills due to distance issues.
So far journey has been great and better than expected. Kids have lot of toys and books to spend time, and staff seems to be taking good care of them. Whenever i go in evening to pick mine (pre schooler), i see kids engaged with a staff, mostly doing story telling.
I have seen other centres where kids are just left to wander, but here that's not the case.
Food wise, my kid seems to be doing fine till now, no issues as such. Hygiene is top notch.
Educators are friendly and pretty much everyday provide me feedback in evening on my kid's daily routine.
Management is quite responsive on any queries, and seems ready to help.
Its a new centre in the area, and for sure they setting high standards for others.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the awesome review, Bhuvnesh! We work hard to meet expectations like yours, and always strive to find ways to improve our centres. Glad to you hear you have had such a great experience!

The centre is well presented, educators and team are welcoming. The food smells and looks amazing by the talented chef.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words, Angela! We’re so happy your visit at our centre in Acacia Gardens East went so well. We are keen to keep providing a great experience for all Guardian Families and their little ones 😊

Rhythm of the Day

We know children and families like routine, so you will always receive a warm welcome each morning and an invitation to stay for breakfast. At the end of the day, a smooth transition is assured with your child’s belongings ready for you after a day that fulfils your child's interests and curiosity. In between, the day is filled with new and exciting experiences to engage young minds as part of their early childhood education. Here’s a glimpse of what a day of play-based learning at our childcare centre often looks like.

Morning

Breakfast time provides a great chance for you to share what is important and how your baby’s night at home was.

Mid-Morning

Your baby will enjoy engaging in both our indoor and outdoor nursery environments with planned experiences like songs and story time, followed by morning tea.

Middle of the Day

Your baby’s lunch times will suit their needs, and with our open-door policy, families are welcome to enjoy lunch/bottle time with your baby. When your baby is ready, they are gently settled for sleep and rest.

Mid-Afternoon

Our planned indoor and outdoor nursery experiences continue with the chance for movement, games and more books and songs, with an afternoon snack provided.

End of Day

The Nursery team are eager to share information about your baby’s day and their learning, preparing you and your baby for a smooth transition to your evening.

Our Learning Programs

Learning should be fun! Learning through play encourages children to explore and understand their world at their own pace. It helps build their knowledge, develop confidence, and embrace curiosity.

Preschool Program
Flying start to school

Our Flying Start to School preschool program is lead by degree qualified Teachers in a long day care setting. Our specialist two-year program is committed to supporting your child as they prepare for big school. We focus on nurturing their confidence, making friends and social emotional growth while also supporting their abilities in reading, writing, counting, and thinking skills. Whether it’s building with blocks, practicing their first letters, or learning to share with friends, every experience is carefully designed to support your child’s development.

Our Centre is a recipient of funding as part of the NSW Government’s Start Strong Program which subsidises the cost of preschool in long day care. For 3-year-old’s this is between $423-$769 and for 4-year-olds between $1,783-$2,563. This support is in addition to the Child Care Subsidy and can help to lower your out-of-pocket fees. Ask for more details when you tour the centre.

Out and about

Through excursions, children are supported to expand their world, to get to know their community, and have a sense of belonging. Their learning thrives when they feel safe, welcome, and that they belong.

Cooking

Cooking experiences teach numeracy by counting ingredients, and weighing and measuring quantities and volume, while managing these tasks supports independence and confidence.

Ella Language

Learning languages through Early Learning Languages Australia (ELLA) supports brain development and social skills and creates opportunities to celebrate cultural diversity.

Joy of Reading

Reading aloud to children each day inspires imagination and supports thinking. Books with rhythm, rhyme and word patterns make stories more playful and memorable.

Sustainability

From growing veggies and foraging in the garden for that day’s meal ingredients to learning about recycling, children learn about being part of a community, connecting to their environment and understanding their impact on the world.
