Wonderful centre with lots of actual real outdoor playground space. The educators have always been so lovely. My eldest is just graduated kindy and my youngest is just starting. We will enjoy the centre for a few more years to come. Thank you for being wonderful.

A truly fantastic centre. The educators really care about the children and spend time developing relationships with them. The centre also provides daily updates and loads of photos via the Storypark app so you don’t need to worry or wonder how your child is going with the day.The curriculum is highly varied taking advantage of the large block for outdoor activities as well as indoors with books and sensory play.I’ve been raving about this centre to anyone that will listen because I feel it is truly amazing and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my kiddo!

I had 3 children at this centre and I have been unable to find anywhere the same since moving. Amazing caring educators and lovely children that we still maintain contact with even though we have not attended for a few months now. Lovely yard, not a fake environment which my children really enjoyed.

My two daughters have been at this centre 2 weeks and are already settled in. The centre has great staff that actually care about the children. My toddler loves the chickens, veggie garden and their outdoor play program. We have tried a number of different centres in the area and have never been satisfied with the care our girls were getting. Its daunting leaving your children in the care of someone else.... but I honestly can't speak highly enough about this place!

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. Please note, this will vary depending on centre opening hours.
-
Morning
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.
-
Morning
Breakfast time where families are welcome to stay and enjoy breakfast with the children.
-
Morning
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.
-
Morning
As the children come together, planned experiences begin. This is where the Guardian programs and practices come to life. Examples of learning include numeracy, literacy, language, critical thinking, problem solving, leadership, social skills, technology, science, creative arts, curiosity and more.
-
Morning
There's an opportunity for children to come together and enjoy morning tea.
-
Mid-morning
Following morning tea, the planned experiences continue. This includes both indoor and outdoor programs.
-
Afternoon
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.
-
Afternoon
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.
-
Afternoon
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.
-
End of the day
As families arrive to pick up children, there's an opportunity to speak to Educators and share information about the day.
-
End of 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.
