We absolutely love this daycare. We moved over here because Happy Tots on Keats St was not delivering. My kids love the educators here and the managers actually manage!! Which is refreshing

Cannot speak highly enough of this centre. After being rejected at the eleventh hour by another centre due to medical needs, Guardian took steps to accomodate us without any hesitation. This included training and upskilling all staff at their cost. All staff demonstrate an high competency of care confidence, kindness, vigilance, honesty and communication, and I feel as though my child is getting an authentic learning experience in a supportive, inclusive and loving environment. Again, I couldn’t recommend a better centre and am so grateful the be able to access a centre who genuinely cares for your child as if they’re their own.

We have been incredibly impressed by the team at Guardian Moorooka. We have two children in care and the staff have gone above and beyond to make our children feel at home. The centre itself is beautiful and their resources are second to none. My very picky eater of a 3 year old loves everything Bill the chef makes and we love that all we have to pack is a hat and water bottle. We had separation anxiety issues with our middle child at a previous centre, but have had no issues at Guardian. Our infant daughter has also settled in beautifully, barely skipping a beat with her naps during her transition to daycare.Giving your children over to strangers to care for is a very big thing. Thank you Guardian for always making us feel at ease, for loving our children and for always going the extra mile to make them feel cared for.

I cannot speak highly enough about the staff at Guardian Moorooka. From the very first visit, Kasey and Togana were warm, knowledgeable and very professional. They are authentic and hands on leaders in this newly purpose built centre with great facilities. Clear and strong policies including swap days, drop off and pick up procedures and sanitising toys and areas create an highly efficient environment. Bill, their chef creates a wonderful, nutritious array of food everyday, some days, my baby eats three helpings. The team in Nursery One are outstanding, their care and genuine love for children is so apparent and comforting it has made our transition to daycare so much easier and with less tears (mainly from me.) Thank you to Chiara, Raquel, Marian, Olfat, Josh and Gwen for their positivity, warmth and impressive educator skills, along with all the educators that have frequented the nursery’s. I feel very lucky to have a place at this Guardian, I truely appreciate the people at this centre which comes from the strong and supportive community they have created in a short time.

Learn More About Our Centre

Guardian Childcare & Education Moorooka is a newly built centre just outside Brisbane, conveniently located for anyone heading into the CBD from the southern suburbs. The location is great for families in the surrounding suburbs of Moorooka, Salisbury, Rocklea and Tarragindi. The brand-new Centre will feel like a home away from home for children.

At Guardian Childcare & Education Moorooka we strive to provide the highest quality of education and care for your children. Our innovative teaching methods are designed to help our young learners develop their skills in a safe, fun and stimulating environment. We believe that early years learning should be creative and fun.

Our early childhood professionals – our Educators and Teachers – are warm and welcoming and are experienced in providing children with a safe, secure environment to grow and develop freely in their first few years. Our child care centre features multiple spacious rooms filled with beautiful colours and natural lights. There are plenty of stimulating materials around the child care centre to keep the children engaged, and to inspire them to explore their child care environment.

We are dedicated to providing proper nutrition to children, and our on-site cook prepares fresh meals daily to ensure each child has the opportunity to develop positive healthy eating habits. Our Educators empower each child to become active in the food preparation process, and many of the children help select ingredients, ask our cook questions and learn about the various nutrients in each meal.

Our family communication app, Storypark, provides our Educators and families with an opportunity to form genuine relationships. We regularly share images, videos, and messages about your child’s progress throughout the day, keeping you informed about your child’s growth and development. We encourage families to use the Storypark app to create ideas for continuing the learning at home.

For children aged three and four years, we provide high-quality kindergarten with our long day care to help prepare them for their upcoming transitions into formal schooling. Each room in our centre is led by an early childhood Teacher.

Our three-year-old curriculum emphasises developing some of the social, emotional and communication skills that the children will use as they gain more independence. We encourage development in these areas through group play and some slightly more structured activities.

For four-year-olds, the corriculum focuses on further developing their communication, social and emotional skills, and they also begin exploring some numbers, shapes, phonics, science concepts, and all sorts of new ideas. Guided by an early childhood Teacher, we aim to equip each child for a life of learning.

Guardian Moorooka aims to provide children with a wide variety of experiences and learning opportunities during child care, so we offer many different educational opportunities throughout the week to help foster growth and development.

Children are encouraged to interact with our on-site chef and join in the cooking process themselves. They may choose to select some fresh ingredients to include in their meal, or they might like to practice serving up their food on their own. The delicious and nutritious food is all part of the service.

Sustainability is another of the exciting programs at our Centre, and we empower children to learn about recycling and engage with other sustainable practices while developing a genuine passion and care for looking after our planet.

Our Out & About program encourages children to spend more time playing outdoors in the fresh air and natural sunlight. We have a beautiful, spacious outdoor environment for the children to explore and practice engaging their imaginations and creativity.

In the nursery, babies have peaceful rest and sleep in the dream room. Along with nutritious food, parents can be confident their precious little one is getting the best care and attention from our dedicated team.

Our team supports each child’s literacy, language, and numeracy skills to help them feel confident and prepared during their formative years and the leap into primary school. Our team is committed to the needs and routines of each of our families, and we ensure each child’s cultural background is supported and encouraged.

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 book a centre tour and come and meet the team and have a look around our Centre today? A tour will show you why Guardian Moorooka is the perfect learning environment for your child. At Guardian, we believe that together, we can create life-long learners.

We hope you can join us and look forward to welcoming you soon!
