Jayna O.
My son has been studying here for several months and he’s in Early learning room. The facilities and environment are clean and cozy. The educators are really full of responsibility. They treat my kid with love, care and patience so that I can work without worries. I really appreciate Ms.Faiza, Ms.Marufa, Ms.Puja and Ms.Alice Chen. They always welcome us warmly and try to enrich the classroom content as much as possible every day. Ms.Marufa always gives feedback on one day after school. They are trying their best! These best teachers also make this kindergarten the best kindergarten in my heart.
Response from the owner:Thank you Jayna! We’re so grateful for your beautiful feedback! It’s truly heartwarming to hear how much your son enjoys his time with us. Creating a clean, cozy, and enriching environment where children feel loved and supported is exactly what we strive for every day. We’re especially thrilled to hear your kind words about Ms. Faiza, Ms. Marufa, Ms. Puja, and Ms. Alice Chen, they are incredibly dedicated educators, and your recognition means so much to them. Thank you for your trust and for being part of our community. We’re honoured to be the kindergarten held in your heart!
Shuvo D.
I am very grateful to Guardian for taking great care of my son. We started childcare from a young age (3 months) and he stayed in Nursery for approximately 1.5 years, where he grew a very deep bond with the educators. Our son would get especially excited every morning when he gets to see Mama Jin, Hanna, Anna and Swathi, so we know he was well taken care of. He has recently graduated to the next room where all the educators also seem fantastic. He is still very attached to the nursery educators and they have all been pitching in to help him with the transition, for which I am deeply greatful. I highly recommend Guardian!
Response from the owner:We are truly grateful for your kind words and for entrusting us with the care of your son from such a young age Shuvo. It’s been a joy watching him grow and thrive in our Nursery room, and we’re so glad to hear about the special bond he formed with Mama Jin, Hanna, Anna, and Swathi. Transitions can be big milestones, and we’re delighted to know that the move to the next room has been supported by both the new educators and his beloved Nursery team. Your recognition of their dedication means the world to us. Thank you again for your recommendation and continued support. We look forward to many more wonderful moments with your family.
Wendy M
All staff at the centre are amazing individuals that are caring and knowledgeable. My daughter has been attending guardian for over a year now and she has improved so much. Her language and ability to follow instructions has been exponentially better, she is confident and I really have to thank her room educators for that.
The centre environment is one of the best I have been to. Very clean and tidy with lots of open space for the kids to use safely.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your wonderful review Wendy! It's incredibly rewarding to know that our caring and knowledgeable staff have made such a positive impact on your daughters confidence during her time with us. We take great pride in maintaining a clean, tidy, and safe environment with plenty of open learning spaces, to inspire the children's imaginations when they are exploring in their play. Your kind words mean a lot to us and motivate us to continue providing the best quality care and education! Thank you again!
Eugenia W.
My boy started attending Guardian Childcare & Education Homebush six months ago. At first, he struggled to adapt to the new environment, but the teachers provided him with so much attention and support to help him settle in. They spent a lot of one-on-one time with him, encouraged him to make new friends, and guided him through the transition. Now, there have been times when he doesn’t even want to go home—this truly shows how much care and dedication the teachers put in.

The teachers are the heart of this childcare center. I can genuinely feel their love and patience for the children. They help them learn, explore their emotions, and grow in confidence. The center feels like a big family where the teachers work together as a great team.

I also love the communication from the center. Every day, updates are posted on the app, and I always check them as soon as I receive the notification. It reassures me to know how my child’s day went, what activities he did, and what he ate. At pick-up time, the teachers always take the time to update me on his daily routine and well-being.

The environment at the center is fantastic—spacious, bright, and very clean. The management team is also wonderful and always ready to help solve any issues. I really appreciate that the center offers swap days and casual days, which provide flexibility for parents to manage their schedules.

Every day, my child comes home and tells me, “Mum, I had a happy day at childcare!” That gives me great peace of mind. I especially want to thank Miss Jenny, Miss Draksha, and Miss Pooja for their care and kindness. I’m truly grateful to have met them.

I love this childcare so much that I’ve now enrolled my second child here as well. That alone shows how much I trust and appreciate this place. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your heartfelt review Eugenia! We're overjoyed to hear that your time at the centre has been such a positive experience! Our dedicated teachers, especially Miss Jenny, Miss Draksha, and Miss Pooja, will be delighted to hear your feedback on the significant impact they made to your son's transition and overall happiness while in their care. Your kind words truly highlight the love, support and patience they show to the children and families in our community. We're also glad that our daily communication through the StoryPark app, and the flexibility of swap and casual days, have been beneficial for you. It's our goal to provide a service that makes life easier for all our families and it's great to know that this has been helpful for you. Thank you for entrusting us with the care of both your children. Your recommendation means the world to us. If you ever have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to support you and your family every step of the way!
G L.
Both my children attended Guatdian Homebush. There are so many reasons that I would like to recommend this centre to parents. This centre maintains regular communication with parents or guardians by providing open concerns, progress of education and activities. I was especially grateful to Mama Jin and the educators in the nursery room for their heartwarming care for my children. My children attended another childcare centre before and they cried every morning when I dropped them. However, Mama Jin at Guardian Homebush took special care for my children and they loved her so much. They never cried and so settled and enjoyed time at nursery room throughout the whole period attending there.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this lovely review! It's great to know that the regular communication and warm care from Mama Jin and the nursery team made such a difference to your little one settling into the centre. We understand that drop-offs can be challenging at times, so it must have been great peace of mind to know that your little one was comfortable, happy and settled during this time! Thank you again for your kind words - our team will be delighted to read them!
Sarah L.
Mama Jin and all the staffs in Nursery room at Guardian Homebush are the most caring, professional and wonderful educators. They always cared my kids with full of love and dedication and my kids still miss Mama Jin so much. I really appreciate and highly recommend the Nursery team at Guardian Homebush. They are the best!👍
Response from the owner:Hi Sarah, thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We're delighted to hear that Mama Jin and the Nursery team at our centre have made such a positive impact on your family. It's wonderful to know that your little ones were cared for with love and dedication, and that they still speak of and miss Mama Jin, this truly highlights the exceptional experience they had! Your high recommendation means the world to us, and we're incredibly grateful for your trust and support! Thank you again for your glowing review!
Vignesh A.
I am beyond grateful for the exceptional care my 2-year-old son receives at Guardian Childcare & Education Homebush. The educators here have truly gone above and beyond to make sure my son feels loved, safe, and nurtured on days he attends the centre.
A special thanks to Draksha, Jenny, and Pooja for their unwavering dedication to providing the highest level of care to all the children, especially my son. Draksha, in particular, has been a standout educator. Her one-on-one care with my little one is heartwarming and truly appreciated. She has a special gift for connecting with the children, and my son has developed so much under her attention and guidance. Her kindness, patience, and attentiveness have made such a positive impact on his growth and well-being.
The whole team at Guardian Homebush is incredible, and it’s clear that they genuinely care about the children’s development and happiness. I’m so thankful to have found such a wonderful place for my son to learn and grow. Keep up the amazing work!
Most importantly we love the Story Park updates on focus areas and activities for the day along with photos of little one enjoying the day.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your heartfelt review Vignesh! It's wonderful to know that Draksha, Jenny, and Pooja have made such a positive impact with their dedication and care for your little one, they will be delighted to hear your kind words! Storypark updates and photos are such a wonderful communication tool, keeping you connected with your son's day at the centre. Thank you for being a part of our community and for your continued support!
Rina N.
My daughter has been attending Guardian for a couple of months, the educators in toddler room Draksha and Jenni have been wonderful and very caring which I’m really thankful for. My daughter settled in relatively quick and I can tell she’s well looked after. Although shes still clingy with mum at drop off, she’s gotten better over time. At pick up she’s always happy and I get a lot of updates about her day
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience with us Rina! We're delighted to hear that your daughter is settling in well and that you feel she is well looked after, how wonderful that she is going home happy everyday! We understand that drop-offs can be challenging, but it's reassuring to hear that she's getting better over time, which is a testament to the care Draksha & Jenni are providing. We appreciate your kind words and are grateful to have your family as part of our community. Thank you again for your lovely feedback!
Ivana S.
My son has been attending this day care for about six months now. He started just after his third birthday and it was the best thing we have ever done. It took quite some time for him to settle properly. We actually still have issues at drop off from time to time but the educators have done everything in their power to make this as easy as possible for him. Their patience and care has been outstanding and I can say that I sincerely trust them with my boy. Sharmila, Mahesh and Devi are all wonderful people who take such good care of the kids. They have made all this easier for not just my son but us as well. He comes home full of wonderful stories and is always happy at the end of the day.
I should have written this review before but better late than never. A really great centre for the kids.
Response from the owner:What a beautiful review! It’s so touching to hear how much Sharmila, Mahesh, and Devi have positively impacted your son’s experience at daycare. It must be so reassuring to know your little one is in great hands and that they’ve made the transition easier for both you and your son, especially with the drop-off challenges. It really speaks volumes about their dedication and how much they care about the children’s well-being. It’s wonderful that you see your son coming home happy and excited about his day! This is a lovely tribute to a team that truly makes a difference. Thank you again for your kind words!
QIANYING L.
My daughter started attending Guardian daycare when she was just over seven months old. As a high-needs baby with little sense of security, she would cry whenever a stranger approached and only wanted to be close to me.

I was initially very anxious, but the three teachers in the nursery room immediately put me at ease. They created a gradual plan, starting with short days and slowly extending her time to help her adjust to the new environment. Every time I pick her up, I see the teachers holding her. Mama Jin, Hannah, and Ana have shown her endless love and patience, earning her trust and helping her feel safe. Now, two months later, she is enjoying her time at Guardian more and more. Seeing her smile in photos gives me peace of mind as I return to work.

I hope these amazing teachers receive the recognition they deserve. To all other parents who have the same concern as I did, you can 100% trust the educators leaving your children in their care. I also hope Guardian appreciates their dedication and takes care of such outstanding teachers.

Thank you again 💓
Response from the owner:What a beautiful and heartfelt review, thank you Qianying! It’s so reassuring to hear how much love and care Mama Jin, Hannah, and Ana have given your daughter, especially in those early, difficult days. The gradual plan they put in place to help her adjust really shows their understanding and commitment to each child’s individual needs. The fact that your daughter is now enjoying her time at Guardian and you can see her smiling in photos is such a testament to the patience, trust, and care the educators have fostered with her. It’s incredibly touching to hear how much peace of mind this has brought you as a parent, and I can assure you the dedication from our passionate educators does not go unnoticed! Thank you for sharing your experience and trust in the educators—it’s so helpful for other parents to know that our centre is a place where children can truly thrive, especially in those challenging early stages. Your feedback and recommendation is very much appreciated!
Ellie J P.
GC&E Homebush has been an absolute gem for our family. A significant part of their success is Lilly, the centre managing director, whose leadership and personal commitment truly set this childcare centre apart. Her genuine care for both children and families create an exceptional environment. Also a special shoutout to acknowledge Ravjit, the Assistant Centre Manager, for her kindness and unwavering commitment, which have made a significant difference.

In just one year, the incredible support and education at this centre has helped my daughter make remarkable progress. Her language skills, social interactions, and overall confidence have blossomed amazingly. What we love the most, she has developed a wonderful sense of artistic freedom, exploring creativity through various activities that encourage self-expression and imagination.

As my daughter is about to transition to school, the preschool program at Guardian Childcare has expertly prepared her for this significant milestone. The structured learning approach, social skills development, and school readiness curriculum have given her a solid foundation for her educational journey ahead.

What sets this centre apart is their ability to build children's confidence and foster a genuine love for learning. Lilly ensures that every staff member goes above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing space where kids can explore, develop, and thrive.

Highly recommended for parents seeking a childcare centre with brilliant leadership and a genuine commitment to children's development.

Thank you, Lilly and Team!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful feedback Ellie! We are thrilled to hear about the positive impact that our centre has had on your family, and it's especially rewarding to know that Lilly and Ravjit's dedication has made such a difference in your daughter's development of language, social interactions, and confidence, as well as her creative expression. It’s wonderful to hear that the preschool program has provided her with such a strong foundation as she transitions to school. We’re so grateful for your trust and support during your time with us and we wish your daughter all the best on her exciting educational journey ahead, we’ll always be here cheering her on! Thanks again for your amazing review!
Angeline F.
Our son transferred to Guardian and my only comment would- I wish we did it sooner.

Lilly’s team and the young adventurers team is a blessing. At 2 years old, transferring him from a daycare he has been from 6mos old, was a worry, but Guardian’s team made it seamless and tear free. Our son was only anxious when we did the orientation but on day 1, it was so good, he loved being there and in weeks knew his teachers.

His room teachers have all been gentle, calm and so caring- this was a big difference we noted from our old daycare and this had a big effect on how he was, although he remains energetic he has been gentler after joining them.

As a parent, this is all you can ask for, is that you find a daycare where your child is happy and taken care of.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words, Angeline! We're so happy to hear that your little one has settled well into the centre and has formed strong connections to his educators, it certainly makes all the difference! We pride ourselves on providing warm, attentive and supportive environments and are so pleased to hear how well the transition went for you and your little one. We look forward to creating more amazing experiences for your family in the future!

Fiona S.
I have many years of experience in the childcare industry and recently completed a four-week work placement at Guardian Childcare & Education Homebush as part of my ECT degree. I found the centre's education quality to be exceptional, with a well-designed curriculum, daily learning programs, nutritious meals, and a strong focus on children's safety.
The educators are dedicated, and the centre manager Lily and assistant manager Ravjit consistently appreciate and support their staff. They prioritise staff well-being, allocating weekly budgets for treats and fostering a positive work culture. Many key staff members have over 10 years of experience, which is rare in the childcare industry. This strong retention contributes to the centre's full enrollment and waiting list, as well as positive feedback from families. Lily and Ravjit demonstrate exceptional leadership through their hard work and professionalism, creating a supportive and thriving environment for both staff and families at the centre. They both are available until 6 pm daily, ensuring accessibility for parents.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words, Fiona! We’re so happy your visit at our centre in Homebush went so well. We are keen to keep providing a great experience for all Guardian families and their little ones 😊

Guardian Childcare Homebush offers a warm and nurturing environment for children. The educators in the Nursery room (Mama Jin and Miss Anna and the rest of the Nursery Team) are exceptionally caring and kind, providing a supportive and engaging experience for every child. It's a place where both parents and babies feel valued and at ease. The most valued asset are the educators, I hope Guardian looks after them as well. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a loving and attentive daycare!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your feedback about our centre in Homebush! We are happy to hear such good things about you and your little one’s experience with us.

Hasara L
My son attended Guardian Homebush from 15 months - 3.5 years. We only changed daycares as we moved.

He thrived at this daycare and has made friends that we continue to see after moving.

We had a challenging experience with the new daycare that he went to. The educators from Guardian Homebush were so lovely that they even gave us some advice on how to handle it.

We’re grateful for his time at Guardian Homebush and for the team there.

It’s a testament to them that he (and we) still view the daycare so favourably and he still shares stories from his time there.

The other families that attend are so lovely too and we still socialise with a few ❤️
Response from the owner:Thank you Hasara for your 5-star rating for our centre. We really appreciate your positive review and look forward to creating a great experience at Guardian over many more days to come!

My children have been at Guardian Homebush for a couple of years now and I have been really happy with their care.

The activities led by Gurjit in the Early Leaners room have been engaging and fun. My 4 year old son is learning something new everyday and has made some great friends!

My 1 year old daughter in Tiny Explorers feels very safe and secure with the educators. There are a number of different staff I know she will happily go to in the morning making drop off much easier. Rebecca has also been setting up some great activities for the group and it has been nice seeing them so engaged.
Response from the owner:Thank you Naazmij for your great review for our centre in Homebush. We are so happy to hear that we are meeting your expectations. We will continue to provide the best possible care for out families and children 😊

Our son has been in the center for over a year and a half and we couldn’t be happier. Attentive educator, clean centre. The educators are very caring, friendly, always there and very responsive. Special mention to Gurjit who has been helping our son a lot in the centre.
Tahnee G.
Our son Reuben has been at Guardian for 1 month now and we could not be more happy. All of the staff in the nursery are so beautiful and have gone above and beyond to make this transition for us and our boy as easy as possible (especially Miss Anna 🙌🏼)! After just two weeks my son was smiling all through out at drop off and pick up, he loves it. 🥹

All of the staff in the centre are lovely and welcoming - Lilly & Ravjit are so nice and always happy to help. I have observed the space itself to be clean, calm and a loving environment with the kids in all rooms! Very happy to send our son here and highly recommend.

My daughter has been attending the Centre for three years now and I have always had the best care and support from all the educators. The centre manager, Lilly is the most professional and she is fully committed to cater for every children’s individual needs. Lilly places the individual children’s wellbeing as her top priority and she is always available to have open discussions with parents with a smile. Lilly’s interactive and communication skills are excellent. Lilly is able to provide the most practical and sensible advice to help you overcome the most challenging times in parenting phrases.

I also show my special appreciation to Ravjit, Rossmery, Shamilla who have been most supportive to my child. They are totally dedicated to cater for children’s wellbeing and provide credible feedbacks which show that they are constantly observing my child.

I was able to focus on my career without worrying about my child because I was able to trust that the Centre would provide the most supportive and safe environment for my child to develop and grow on a daily basis.

I have no hesitation to recommend the Centre to all the parents who are looking for the Childcare Centre which can succeed in achieving each children to learn new skills to maximise their potential and become the most independent and capable individuals to be in readiness for their later school environment. Well done team. ❤️

Harman S.
Our toddler has been at Guardian for 3 months now and I cannot speak more highly about the staff. They have been very sensitive and responsive to his needs settling in, the communication has been wonderful and most importantly, I trust that they are looking after our child well. A special shout out to the centre manager as well - Lilly - who is a gem of a person. So friendly with the kids, happy to answer questions for new parents to the daycare system and always has time to say hello and have a small chat with us when we drop off / pick up. Overall, I'm really happy with our experience so far and excited to see our child develop and grow here.
Response from the owner:Thank you Harman for your great review for our centre in Homebush. We are so happy to hear that we are meeting your expectations. We will continue to provide the best possible care for our families and children 😊
John A.
Our daughter settled in extremely well to Guardian's Homebush. Reasons outlined below:
The variety of daily activities including baking, gardening, arts and craft, soccer and sensory activities. These activities aren't repetitive. They are well thought out and engaging for our daughter and other children.
Uniform approach to breaking habits such as: no bottles, falling asleep without assistance, encouragment to eat a variety of foods, toilet training (2.5 - 3yr old room).
Sitting outside and sharing morning and afternoon tea together. Particularly, the educators sitting with the children and encouraging them to talk, sing and eat together making the whole experience fun.
It's very pleasing to see the educators taking the time to learn about our daughter and attending to her needs. We have seen a vast improvement in her breaking certain habits at home since she's been at Guardian's Homebush.
Our daughter is extremely happy at the centre with the educators and looks forward to attending each day. I highly recommend Guardian's Homebush to family and friends.
Response from the owner:Thank you John for your great review for our centre in Homebush. We are so happy to hear that we are meeting your expectations. We will continue to provide the best possible care for out families and children 😊
Parvin D.
Only 4-5 weeks ago started my son in this centre and I can see the difference with the other childcare my son was in. Teachers are absolutely lovely and caring about children. Children learn things here and I can see that in my son in such a short time. Keep up the great job you are doing team. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the awesome review, Parvin! 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!
Eddy G.
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Centre Manager Lilly for her exceptional dedication and support during my child's transition into preschool. As a first-time parent navigating the childcare landscape, Lilly's guidance was invaluable. Her passion for her work was evident from the moment we met, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about the well-being of each child under her care.

Lilly took the time to patiently explain the procedures and intricacies of the preschool environment, easing any concerns I had as a parent. What struck me the most was her ability to connect with my son effortlessly. Their bond was evident from the beginning, which reassured me greatly as a parent. Furthermore, Lilly's professionalism shone through in every interaction, yet she maintained a humble and approachable demeanor. Her exceptional customer service exceeded my expectations, as she went above and beyond to address any concerns and make us feel welcome.

Beyond Lilly's outstanding qualities, the entire staff at the center deserves commendation. They exhibited kindness, patience, and a genuine care for my son's individual needs. The facilities themselves are spacious and well-equipped, providing an ideal environment for children to learn and grow. I also want to extend my appreciation to the Spanish lady Rossmery, who warmly introduced me to the center and gave me a tour. Her gentleness and warmth made me feel as if I was her family.

At the end, choosing this childcare center was an easy decision after meeting Lilly and experiencing the dedication of the staff. I am confident that my son is in capable hands, and I look forward to watching him thrive in this nurturing environment.

Thank you to all the staff members for their hard work and dedication. And a special thank you to Lilly for her unwavering commitment to the children and families she serves.

I have always been very particular and selective of the type of center and care I wanted for my child and Guardian Homebush meets and exceeds all of my expectations. My son has become so much more social, has learnt such good manners and etiquette, has become much more confident and independent, and overall has been such a great experience so far. Also, the center is always so clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend to all my friends and family. The educators are all also so lovely and caring so I know my child is in good hands which is all a mother needs to know at the end of the day. Thanks so much Guardian Homebush!
Response from the owner:Thank you Sarah for your 5-star rating for our centre in Homebush. We really appreciate your positive review and look forward to creating a great experience at Guardian over many more days to come!

♥️The kind teachers, spacious indoor and outdoor areas, and warm atmosphere make this childcare center the best! Our daughter attended from just before she turned one until she was three years old, experiencing all of the center's classes, and we can truly say that all of the teachers are wonderful. They are kind and loving towards our child, always warmly welcoming her and educating her with love. We are grateful for that. Although we have to leave for a while due to personal circumstances, we will miss it so much! The teachers are truly the best and the facilities are top-notch.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the awesome review, Lee! 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! ​

My daughter was transferred to Guardian Homebush a year ago. This Centre is perfectly tidy and clean, carpet always looks fresh and new. They are very professional at maintaining the personal hygiene process, so my daughter seldom got sick. Nithia and her management team are so easy to communicate with and always respond fast. Educators are always trying their best to take care the children. And the little ones are all very well mannered. Everyone in the Centre is willing to help. Our life has become so much easier since we have our girl over there. Cannot say anything else rather than Thank You to all at Guardian.
Response from the owner:Thank you Yi'da for your 5-star rating for our centre in Homebush. We really appreciate your positive review and look forward to creating a great experience at Guardian over many more days to come!

The only reason I recommend Guardian Homebush is because of the special educators who make a real difference. I especially want to thank Jenny- her kindness and genuine love for the kids truly stood out. The centre has solid programs and good facilities that support learning and development well. That said, I do think the management could be more visible and professional in their communication and presence—it would make a noticeable difference.
Response from the owner:We're incredibly grateful for your kind words about our educators, especially Jenny—she truly embodies the care and dedication we strive for. It's wonderful to hear that our programs and facilities are supporting your child's learning and development. We also appreciate your honest comments about management visibility and communication. Your insights are valuable, and we’re committed to continuously improving in all areas to ensure the best experience for our families. Thank you Nick for your thoughtful feedback!
Maggie L.
Both of my kids attended this childcare facilities, and I have to say, teachers there are very helpful and supportive. They are amazing individuals, especially teacher Jenny , warm hearted, love kids and always enthusiastic , always.

The reason why I did not give full stars , is for the whole center admin management. Hope it can be better-managed in the future, because they really have a wonderful team of the teachers.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us Maggie. We’re so pleased to hear that both of your children had a positive journey at our centre and that our educators, especially Jenny, made such a meaningful impact. Jenny’s warmth, enthusiasm, and dedication truly embody the values we strive for every day. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding our centre’s administration. We’re always looking for ways to improve and will take your comments on board as we continue working to enhance the overall experience for our families. Thank you again for your support and for recognising the passion and care of our teaching team!

Rhythm of the Day

We know children (and families) like routine. Whilst no two days of learning are ever the same - here's what a day at Guardian might look like.

Morning

Our friendly Nursery team of familiar educators will be there to greet you and support your baby to settle in for the day.  Breakfast time is available & families are welcome to stay and enjoy with the children. This is also a great chance for conversation to share what is important and how your baby’s night at home was.

Mid-Morning

Our nursery learning environments are set up indoors and outdoors for your baby to engage with a variety of planned experiences while they interact with our team such as exploring picture books, singing songs together. We also offer morning tea.

Middle of the Day

Dependent on the needs of every baby, we time lunch to suit the children. Team members will support your child to eat and/or have a bottle, and when they are ready, are gently settled for sleep or rest. With an open-door policy, families can enjoy lunch/bottle time with your baby if you wish.

Mid-Afternoon

Our nursery planned experiences (both indoor and outdoor) continue and there are opportunities for movement, playing games, more books and songs, or sensory exploration. Afternoon snack is provided.

End of Day

We’ll have your baby’s belongings ready for you at pick up time. The Nursery team will share information about your baby’s day and their learning, preparing you and your child for a smooth transition to your evening. Please grab a piece of fruit or snack on the way out!

Robert and Team

Our Centre team, led by our experienced Centre Manager RobertTeam, prides themselves on creating a great sense of community for all families.

Each role in the Centre is designed to work together to help create a nurturing environment for every child in each of our learning spaces.

In our Nursery Room, the dedicated team has a special role in creating secure attachments, routines, and strong relationships. Unique to Guardian nurseries is our Baby Ambassador, who is your go-to person for you and your baby’s first 12 months with us. They will know every detail about your baby: how breast or bottle milk is managed, how they like to eat, their sleeping routines, the nappies they wear, and more. With babies as young as six weeks in the Centre, it’s the Baby Ambassador’s job to work with families and Educators to help make our Nursery feel just like home.

Our Educators across the age groups work together to create fun, stimulating, and age-appropriate experiences for every child in their care. They are dedicated, experienced professionals who are allocated to a specific room so they can get to know each child individually and support their learning and development.

As part of our 2-year Flying Start to School program, we have degree-qualified Teachers who use the latest teaching practices to help your child build essential practical and social skills, ensuring they’re ready for their next big adventure—school!

Each room has a Lead Educator or Teacher who is responsible for planning and implementing an effective ongoing cycle of planning, documentation, and evaluation of the room’s learning program.

At the core of the Centre is our Cook—make sure you check out their daily menu when you visit. They help make food part of the learning journey and love seeing how children respond to new and exciting flavours.

The team is supported by a strong Leadership Team, including an Assistant Centre Manager and an Educational Leader.

Every role at the Centre is as important as the next.

How will you share updates about my child’s day?

Great communication is vital in our collaborative partnerships with families at the Centre. We have a variety of different ways we communicate with you about your child’s learning and progress:


  1. Storypark app - Stay connected to your child's day with regular updates, including photos and learning insights

  2. Pick-up and drop-off updates – Our Educators will share highlights from their day, including experiences they enjoyed, mealtimes, and naps to support your evening routine.

  3. In-room learning exchange displays make our weekly learning plans easy to see so you know what your child will be learning.

  4. Centre Newsletters – Great for community connection and wider Centre and team updates.

  5. Development documentation and meetings for your individual child’s progress.


But remember our door is always open.

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. Families can receive fee relief to reduce your out-of-pocket fees of up to $2174 per child aged 4 on or before 31 July 2025, and up to $515 per year for children aged 3 on or before 31 July 2025.

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.

STEM

Children discover the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through age-appropriate activities that are designed to foster curiosity and develop foundational skills like problem-solving and creativity.

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.
