"I strongly believe that all children should be loved and supported for the wonderful and unique individuals that they are. "
Guardian Childcare & Education West Pennant Hills is rated as exceeding in the National Quality Standard. The high-quality care and education on offer is a convenient choice for local families who are seeking childcare close to home, or on the way to the Sydney CBD for work.
With a range of exciting, resource-rich environments – including a recently renovated outdoor space – children are encouraged to explore and learn both indoors and out. The modern yet homely centre also has chickens, guinea pigs, vegetable gardens, an outdoor kitchen and a range of age-specific play and learning areas. It really is a home away from home for our children and families.
Embracing the local community’s natural surroundings, the children of Guardian West Pennant Hills often visit the reserve at the back of the Centre for exciting excursions. The older children enjoy kicking a ball around in this incredible outdoor space, whilst the babies often enjoy picnics on the grass.
The Teachers and Educators at Guardian West Pennant Hills provide wonderful learning programs for the children, including a leading Preschool Program for those preparing for the transition to primary school. In addition, we are proud to have a culturally diverse team who celebrate a variety of cultures and holidays throughout the year, organise a range of fundraising events for the children to be involved in. This extends the children’s knowledge of the world around them and gives them an understanding of the community in which they live.
Our on-site cook prepares nutritionally balanced meals every day in our Centre kitchen, which also hosts hands-on cooking classes where the children help prepare meals using herbs and vegetables grown and harvested from the Centre gardens. It’s a real playground to plate experience!
