Welcome to our Centre

Guardian Childcare & Education Kellyville is a spacious early childhood education centre bursting with energy, laughter and learning. Our team of highly experienced Educators and degree-qualified Teachers are committed to providing a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment for your child to thrive in. We believe that every child is unique and deserves the best start in life. 

Our long day care in Kellyville is ideally located for families in surrounding suburbs near Bella Vista, Beaumont Hills, Kellyville North and Rouse Hill. 

At our Kellyville child care centre, we believe that children learn best through play and exploration. The amazing play-based learning environments support this approach. The Centre has two natural outdoor yards, including a creek bed, a water pump, mud pits, vegetable gardens and a range of age-specific studios and play areas. 

Our Kellyville childcare centre offers:

  • Quality learning programs such as Joy of Reading, Cooking and Sustainability
  • Engaging indoor learning spaces full of quality educational resources
  • Expansive outdoor play spaces
  • On-site Chef providing fresh snacks and meals daily
  • Nappies, SPF 50+ sunscreen, high-quality formula and bed linen provided

The team at Guardian Kellyville use the family communication app Storypark to stay connected and ensure families are kept up to date about what’s happening. We share photos, videos and updates about the experiences the children are doing throughout each day, and the learning outcomes delivered from these. This ongoing partnership promotes continuity of learning and ensures our families feel connected to what is happening in the Centre at all times. 

Guardian Kellyville child care centre also offers a leading preschool Program, led by our university-qualified Teachers which helps prepare our older children for the exciting transition to school. This high-quality education program is in addition to the amazing learning experiences our dedicated Educators and Teachers prepare for children of all ages – from six months to six years. 

The NSW Government offers funding to provide families at our Centre fee relief of up to $2174 per child aged three and above, and up to $515 per year for children aged three. This support is in addition to the CCS and can help to lower your out-of-pocket fees.

As part of our unique Visible Learning Program, families have the chance to gain an in-depth understanding of their child’s learning. Easily accessible for families, our Learning Exchange Display provides the opportunity for our Teachers and Educators to share with you any updates on their progress every day. You will also have the chance to share with us your own personal goals and visions for us to implement, having direct input in your child’s educational journey!

Children at Guardian Kellyville enjoy getting out and about on regular excursions, so we have a great connection with the local community. We visit locations such as the local library, duck pond, Rouse Hill town centre, and the primary school next door which forms an important part of our preschool program for the older children. 

With a community-minded and culturally diverse team of Educators who have been with the centre for a long time, we are proud to celebrate a variety of holidays throughout the year, including Holi and Chinese New Year. 

Our in-house cook prepares five nutritionally balanced meals using seasonal ingredients every day. To further explore food at the centre, our dedicated Educators at Guardian Kellyville host hands-on cooking classes for the children to extend their understanding of good nutrition.

The educators at Guardian Kellyville are very caring and very passionate about their work. They helped my son to settle down in the centre very quickly. He has developed a strong bonding with each of his educators, which is really good. I am also quite happy with the his learning and development. I would highly recommend Guardian Kellyville.

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++ 😊

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.

Whilst no two days of learning are ever the same - here's what a day at Guardian might look like.

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.

Robert and team

Our Centre team, led by our experienced Centre Manager Robert, 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.

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.
