Centre Manager
"I am very proud of my team's passion and commitment to the children, their families and each other."
Guardian Childcare & Education Roseville is rated as exceeding in the National Quality Standard. The beautiful light-filled Centre is split between two buildings – with one being a heritage listed house – and is home to a 100-year-old Magnolia tree which is a striking feature loved by children and families alike.
The Centre boasts natural gardens, water play areas, a worm farm, alfresco dining spaces, outdoor reading nooks, and herb and vegetable gardens which the children and educators regularly tend to and harvest for our meals in the Centre.
The Teachers and Educators at Guardian Roseville provide wonderful learning programs for the children, including a leading Preschool Program for those preparing for the transition to primary school. One of the recent learning experiences they designed was around the theme of sustainability, with a game of bingo using recycled coffee pods. You can read all about it, and recreate the experience at home, from the resources on our Learning Exchange.
The children at Guardian Roseville get out and about on regular excursions, so we have a great connection with our surrounding community. We visit locations such as the local park to use the playground and oval, and regularly close the Centre car park so the children can ride around on their bikes and scooters!
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 cultures and holidays. Our passionate team also organise a range of events and fundraisers throughout the year which extends on the children’s knowledge about the community and the world around them.

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.
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.
Guardian Childcare & Education Roseville is set in a beautiful garden with a 100-year-old magnolia tree as our centre piece that sets off our heritage listed house in magnificent style.
The purpose-built preschool rooms have lots of natural light to assist in providing an environment that encourages exploration and learning. The nursery and toddlers’ rooms are inside the cosy heritage listed home which gives it an intimate and home away from home feel. Both areas have easy access to the garden which has a beautiful area for fun exploration and secret adventures, with bushes set up for climbing and hiding amongst.
Our highly motivated team of Educators are full of life and ready to explore and create throughout the day. The diverse cultures represented in our team and families highlights the community and many languages can be heard through the day in our centre. These include Mandarin, Spanish, Russian and Persian. Music is a big part of our day and can be heard in many languages and tones with singing and dancing encouraged and a centre sing-along being a real part of our daily routine.
Learning through play and exploration and real hands on fun is what we do with lots of encouragement to question the world around them giving the children a great sense of belonging and helping them to feel connected to the world around them. Our preparation for school room encourages learning at individual levels and using a variety of styles to suit each child in conjunction with the local schools to help children be ready for the next big step in their education.
Families are welcomed and encouraged to take part in our programs, celebrations and family BBQs helping families enrich and feel connected to our centre.
