"My personal philosophy is that every child is unique and that uniqueness should be cherished and built upon."
Where children are supported to be brave, curious, and bold in their learning, for the best possible start to life.
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.
With endless possibilities, there’s never a dull moment and no two days are the same.
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.
Breakfast time where families are welcome to stay and enjoy breakfast with the children.
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.
There's an opportunity for children to come together and enjoy morning tea.
Following morning tea, the planned experiences continue. This includes both indoor and outdoor programs.
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.
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.
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.
As families arrive to pick up children, there's an opportunity to speak to Educators and share information about 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 Kellyville offers the warmth and comfort of a family home, in north-west Sydney. It’s perfect for families searching for child care and day care in Kellyville and the surrounding suburbs of Bella Vista, Beaumont Hills, Kellyville North and Rouse Hill.
Our spacious daycare centre and child care centre provides a nurturing and stimulating environment for children aged six weeks to six years of age, supporting them to discover the world in a safe and secure way. The indoor spaces are filled with bright, stimulating materials that encourage children to explore and engage their curiosity to discover more about the exciting world around them.
Children are supported through those important early years to explore and develop their social and emotional skills through their early learning journey by a dedicated team of university-qualified Teachers and Educators. They create learning experiences in a nurturing environment that fosters creativity and imagination in a safe and fun environment for young age groups. Our goal is to support each child’s development and start a love of lifelong learning.
Guardian Kellyville child care centre is open from 6.30am to 6.30pm every weekday, so each family are provided with plenty of flexibility for the hours they work and the time they choose to drop off and pick up their child. During drop-offs or pick-ups, we encourage you to stay for a little while and spend some time exploring the learning environment.
Our experienced Educators and qualified Teachers can show you the various play materials and education spaces throughout the childcare centre to help you discover our approach to learning as well as support you continue the learning with activities at home. We encourage involving the whole family in their child’s care and early education to ensure they are happy as they learn and grow.
Our family communication app, Storypark, provides you with photos and updates on your child throughout the day, offering you the opportunity to stay informed about your child’s early learning and development. We also set up different learning outcomes for the children through Storypark, which supports them in achieving developmental milestones and understanding new ideas.
For children aged three and four, we have a preschool program led by university-qualified Teachers that can support your child in their preparation for the step up into primary school. Our Kellyville preschool curriculum is based on leading child development research and demonstrates our commitment to providing the best possible start to life for your child through quality child care services.
Our early childhood education program is led by specialist Educational Leaders who guide teaching and early learning in a flexible and research-supported way. The leading curriculum uses play-based learning experiences to support discovery and give children the best start to life, as well as being aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework and 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. Our program links with the outcomes in the Early Years Learning Framework, which helps to prepare your child for school and their future learning journey.
We develop each child’s literacy and numeracy skills to help them feel confident and prepared during the challenging leap into primary school. In addition, the early learning experience supports each child’s self-confidence and social development, recognising that children learn and develop in different ways. Our high-quality program supports the needs and routines of each of our families, and we ensure each child’s cultural and family background is supported and encouraged.
We’re committed to children’s health and wellbeing, and our on-site cook prepares fresh, nutritious meals fresh and packed with all the nutrients that children need at their age. We encourage children to engage in food preparation and to ask questions about where their food comes from, why it’s good for them, and how they can eat it. We also encourage exploration of the cultural heritage behind different foods, helping promote diversity and inclusion from an early age.
As part of our unique Visible Learning Program, families will be able to gain an understanding of their child’s education. Our Learning Exchange Display will provide the opportunity for our Teachers and Educators to share updates on your child’s progress. It will also be a chance for you to have direct input into your child’s learning!
Why not come and meet the team and have a look around our Centre today? We’d love to show you why Guardian Childcare & Education Kellyville is the perfect learning environment for your child. At Guardian, we believe that together, we can give young children the best start to life.
We look forward to welcoming you soon!

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.
Learning should be fun! Learning through play allows children to build their knowledge, develop confidence, and embrace curiosity.
Kindergarten/Preschool Program
Our specialist two-year kindergarten/preschool program is led by degree qualified Teachers in a long day care setting. Children explore and understand their world in an environment of safety and security. It’s where they develop the foundational literacy and numeracy skills to thrive.
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.

I feel completely confident in the team that care for my child. I can leave him each day and know his needs are met, and they do their best to give him their time and attention without taking away from the needs of the other children. Despite his younger age, they still make time to do developmentally appropriate experiences with him, support his established and emerging skills, as well as allow him to observe and/or take part in experiences with the other older children. Their daily documentation always shares good quality photos of my child and the other children in a positive light, the photos capture the children in a natural, highly respectful way and show their personality and engagement. It is exciting to see what beautiful photos have been captured each day in their learning exchange and I am proud to share these images of my child with others because of how great they are. The team members are kind, communicative and caring, I can tell that they have already built strong relationships and connections with my child and he has smiles and happiness to share when he sees them each day. The team are always happy to answer my questions and share information about how my child was each day, they are attentive to his personality and demeanour and can tell if he is not quite himself and are honest about how he is each day even if he wasn't completely happy and settled the entire day. They appear to be so invested in his learning and development and are so thrilled to share any amazing moments they witnessed and pass on anything they have seen that might be new or not yet observed at home. I am able to have peace of mind each day when I leave my child in the care of the Guardian educators and the Adventurers team because of the great work they do and their excellent and transparent communication when it comes to the care of my child.His educators are amazing. I'm always kept informed on his day and any developments that I may need to be aware of. The team watching him show genuine care and have built wonderful bonds with him. He us happy to come each day and waves me off with a big smile unless he's having too much fun to wave or say bye. The educators respect my requests and act in his best interests always. I do not have to worry because I know I have left him in capable and loving hands

I would highly recommend Guardian Childcare Kellyville to any parent who is seeking a childcare provider that will exceed expectations. I have complete confidence in the team to care for my 3-year old son.He was attending another daycare provider who was not meeting a minimum level of expectation regarding his well being, therefore, we chose to transfer him to Guardian Kellyville who have well and truly exceeded these expectations from day one and have remained consistent over the past year.The staff are genuinely kind and go out of their way to keep the lines of communication open and transparent. I genuinely trust them and their decisions for my child. I also would like to make a special mention of team members Bec Aitchinson and Ayisha. They both add an additional level of value to the team and to the families of Guardian Kellyville.

The environment and facilities look new and clean, with a lot of toys satisfying my kid. Menu is nutritious. The management is well organised. Very good communication with parents via varied channels backed with latest technologies. You know what your child has done in a day with pics and written records. They have clear learning and development programs.

My son has been attending Guardian Kellyville for 2 years and he loves going. He has built such great relationships with the educators, he feels so safe and secure at the centre and regularly doesn’t want to come home. The environments are natural and open. The procedures they have in place ensure the health and safety of all the children. They have a great educational program and some really exciting experiences and events. The communication we received from the centre manager reassures us that they are being extra vigilant during COVID in keeping everyone safe. I could recommend them highly enough!

My husband and I highly recommend this centre. It has a nice community feel where staff work hard to make a happy environment for the children.The staff clearly make the effort to get to know the children's little personalities and celebrate their developmental milestones. At the end of each day the team members share individised highlights from our son's day. The use of the Storypark app to give updates and photos is really a nice touch too.Bec, the centre manager, has been so welcoming and reassuring. She brings little personal touches to the centre that are heartfelt and her communication on behalf of the centre is always excellent.

I ask my daughter everyday at school pick-up whether she had a good day and without fail her answer is "Yeah!". It is hard being a Mum who works full-time, but it is SO good to see how our daughter is developing and learning and I am often amazed by the things she's learning (and remembering) as a 4 year old.Admittedly there seemed to be a management issue at the centre at the beginning of 2018, however the new management team is communicating with parents very clearly and regularly. They are also focused on the children and making them feel special (e.g. baking cupcakes with the students on their birthdays).The educators are doing an excellent job at ensuring that our children are taught in a play-based way. This not only makes learning more fun, but it also ensures that the children stay engaged for longer. My daughter LOVES the educators and it is clear to see that she is very happy at Playdays Kellyville North.

A really great centre with a director and staff who really care about the children. My children have been coming to the centre for the last 2.5 years and have loved every day. The staff are amazing and treat the kids like they are their own. I would recommend the centre to anyone.

I cannot recommend Playdays - Kellyville North enough to parents looking for daycare for their children. My son started at Playdays after being at other centres that were not encouraging of his interests or displayed any interest in his development.Settling into the new centre was brilliant - he was accepted by his peers as if he had been there since a baby. The educators embraced us as a family and it has been a fantastic journey so far.I love the approach that the centre takes - the children direct the program and the educators find the most amazing experiences for the children to learn as much as they possibly can. This is evident in the photos I get each day seeing my son with his peers and their creativity.If I have any concerns about my child's education, I can approach the Centre Manager and educators without being made to feel that I am stressing over nothing. I know its going to be a sad day when my son leaves the centre and goes to primary school - until that day comes, my family and I with the educators at Playdays - Kellyville North are going to continue our amazing journey.

It's the best centre ever. My son has the worst allergies and I feel secure knowing that the educators are all trained in emergency management. The educators are amazing. My son is well cared for. Their programs are exceptional and engaging and my son is constantly learning new things.

I honestly can’t rate Playdays Kellyville North highly enough. I have 2 children that attend, and the love, care, patience, kindness and enthusiasm the educators express towards my children is beyond expectation. They are provided with fun and educational learning experiences on a daily basis and each and everytime I approach an educator for a chat, they are always willing to answer my questions and share information about my children. I feel so incredibly reassured sending my children to Playdays. It’s also wonderful to see the director Rebecca so involved and hands on and she knows each child by name. She’s been so accommodating with my myriad of demands regarding extra days. I look forward to continuing to watch my children grow and flourish in such a beautiful environment.

My daughter loves it here. She’s learnt so much and the educators cater to her curiosity.And, I can’t speak highly enough of the educators, who look after my daughter.My wife and I work in Sydney CBD, and on two separate occasions, when my daughter had high temperatures, the staff have been wonderful. They called me, and when I arrived over an hour later, an educator was holding her and making sure she was comfortable.On another occasion it was the Centre Manager who was looking after my daughter, just holding her while waiting for me. I love how Rebecca, the Centre Manager, involves herself in the lives of the kids. She knows them all by name.The facilities are of high quality and clean.It’s a great place for children to grow and thrive.And a big shoutout to Kayla, Kulwinder, and Lee for making each day of my daughter’s week a wonderful one.

Highly recommended for families around this Day care centre. The only thing I wound say is my daughter loves going to her day-care every single day which she never did with previous child care (which we had the worst experience), Teachers here are amazing, friendly, lovely , caring. Very innovative educational programmes they offer every week. Help to prepare kids starting school next year. Thanks Playday!

A wonderful centre with amazing staff! My daughter has been going here since she was 4.5 month's old (now 3) and she absolutely loves it! She is learning more and more every day, when we pull into the driveway she shouts "yay, my friends!". The teachers are like her second family.The centre itself is beautiful and clean, the interactions with children are purposeful, meaningful and full of love. Being a reggio inspired centre, outdoors is a very important part of the day, with water and sand available all year round for children to safely explore.The sustainability program within the centre is also amazing, limiting excess power consumption where possible and making use of a compost bin, worm farm and various animals for the children to nurture and care for.A++ 😊
