My daughter has attended Guardian Manifold Heights full-time for over three months now, and I’ve been more that satisfied with the care being provided. The educator, Tiff provides daily updates via the StoryPark app with heaps of photos and meaningful observations on how my child is spending her days.Thanks team!

My child has been attending Guardian Manifold heights since opening. He loves his educators and really enjoys the activities set out. We were previously at another centre before moving to this centre and couldn’t be happier, he no longer cry’s at drop off and there are wonderful changes being made since the new manager Ash came on board.We love that the centre celebarates special days and involves families in providing feedback to make improvements at the centre.

As an educator I have loved my experience here at Manifold Heights. The team are wonderful and always ready to take on new ideas and opportunities. The families are beautiful to be surrounded by and the children light up the yard with their giggles and happiness.

Take a Look Around
Welcome to our Centre
A warm welcome to Petit Early Learning Journey Burdell West, proudly owned by Guardian Childcare & Education.
With modern, spacious indoor and outdoor environments, children have a safe and secure way to explore their world. Taking pride in offering a culturally inclusive environment, our Burdell West daycare centre will fast become your child’s home away from home. Burdell West has five beautiful learning studios. Each are grouped by age, and there is a separate sleep room attached to the nursery. Each room has quality educational resources for fun, engaging play-based learning experiences. Every child is supported in their growth and development, so they can build a lifelong love of learning.
Children attending our Burdell child care centre have access to modern, resource-rich environments, along with:
• Fresh, nutritious meals and snacks with the best seasonal ingredients, prepared on-site by our very own Chef
• Nappies, wipes, linen, sunscreen, hats and all snacks and meals
• Leading learning programs to support children’s curiosity and creativity Our high quality Petit ELJ Burdell Kindergarten program has a strong focus on social and emotional development. We support children to develop skills to become active and confident learners as they move onto school. This program emphasises play-based experiences but also has more structured learning for: number concepts, pre-writing (e.g. tracing, completing patterns, reproducing patterns), reading and writing skills and more.
From 1 Jan 2024 eligible children will receive up to 15 hours of free Kindergarten per week at our Centre, up to 600 hours of free Kindergarten per year. This fee support is on top of any Child Care Subsidy eligible families may be receiving. To take advantage of this additional support children must be at least four years of age by 30 June in the year before they attend Primary School and be enrolled at an approved Kindergarten program for at least 2 days a week. Ask us for more information when you visit our Centre.
To further enrich your child’s early learning journey, we offer age-appropriate incursions and excursions throughout the year including Future Champs, Yoganastics and Messy Monsters. At Petit ELJ Burdell, we use family communication app Storypark to share important updates, exciting activities or milestones that your child encounters, ensuring that you always remain connected.

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.
