Olivia C.
My son has been attending Guardian Childcare Hamilton for the last 6 weeks, and I have been so impressed. The educators are wonderful, so caring and lovely. The kids do different activities all the time and I’ve seen my son develop so much in just the 6 weeks he’s been there. Communication is very good, and the Storypark daily updates allow us to see what he is getting up. I would never send my son somewhere I wasn’t 100% comfortable with so I am delighted we found this centre.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience Olivia! We’re so pleased to hear that your son has settled in well with us and that you’ve seen such positive development in just a few weeks. Our educators work hard to create a caring and engaging environment, and it’s wonderful to know that this has made a difference for your family. We’re also glad to hear that Storypark has helped keep you connected to his day. Your trust means a lot to us, and we’re delighted to be part of your son’s early learning journey.!
Alison D.
We had a wonderful experience at Guardian Hamilton with our son Louis - he was in the toddler room with Miss Mildred and Miss Jana and was truly cared for. His development, independence and growth in his confidence in the last 6 months has been incredible and we attribute it to how safe, warm and caring the educators are. Miss Mildred taught my son to count and use the potty - all while keeping things fun! A big thank you to everyone.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your heartfelt review Alison! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that Louis had such a positive experience with Miss Mildred and Miss Jana. Watching his confidence, independence, and development grow over the past six months has been a joy for all of us. We're so proud of the nurturing and fun environment our educators create every day, and your kind words mean the world to our team. Thanks again!
Alesha M.
Our young daughter attends Guardian at Hamilton and we’re very happy with the centre! The highlights for us is the care they show and quality education, learning they provide. Staff are qualified, talented, friendly and genuine and have built a beautiful relationship with our daughter. We’ve seen her grow and had her life enriched by the educators here. We are very happy with the Centre and would recommend to any family!
Response from the owner:Alesha, thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear how happy you are with our centre, and the care and education your daughter is receiving. Watching children grow and thrive in a nurturing environment is what we’re all about, and it’s so rewarding to know that our educators have built such a meaningful relationship with your family.

Thank you for your trust and for recommending us — it truly means the world!
Mat B.
Our little girl is about to turn 3 years old in a couple of weeks, and has been attending Guardian Childcare in Hamilton since she was 10months old.

My wife and I have been very happy with this centre, particularly due to the care and attentiveness of the Educators, “educators” being the key word here.

She’s currently in the Toddlers room, regularly taken care of by Mildred (pictured), Jana, and Jackline (pictured).

Our daughter comes home with new words/sentences, an appreciation for books, pleasant manners, understanding the connection between the letter A for her name, being inquisitive, and crazy of all, is now toilet trained! Mildred asked us to commence potty training at home and to try not using nappies…and it’s worked amazingly!

Simply put, we’ve had multiple positive moments with our daughter, where my wife and I have asked one another who taught her “that”, and it’s come from her daycare.

Even today, when picking our daughter up, she came running into the room to hug me from outside, unbeknown to Jana, who came quickly tailing after her 🙊 Rest assured they’re keeping an eye on the kids.

The app with daily activity photos, naps and meals is also great! This photo is from today’s Teddy Bear’s picnic with my daughter and another child who I’ve blurred for obvious reasons, cuddling with Mildred & Jackline.

To conclude, I’d happily recommend anyone bring their children here!
Response from the owner:Wow—thank you so much for this amazing review Ma! It truly made our day! We’ve absolutely loved being part of your daughter’s journey since she was just 10 months old. Seeing her grow into such a curious, kind, and confident little person has been such a joy for all of us. Mildred, Jana, and Jackline will be so touched to hear your kind words—they care deeply for the children and it really shows! We’re especially thrilled to hear about the potty training success (go team!) and all the little “who taught her that?!” moments—those are the best! And yes, we’re always keeping a close eye, even during those speedy toddler dashes 😄 Thanks again for your trust and for sharing such a thoughtful recommendation. We’re so lucky to have your family as part of our Guardian community
Sima P.
I am very happy with Guardian Hamilton. The educators are kind, professional, and truly care about the children. The environment is warm and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Our educators are truly passionate about creating a caring, professional, and welcoming environment for every child and family, and it’s wonderful to know that this has made a difference for you. We’re grateful for your trust and support—it means a lot to our entire team!
Lisa D.
We’ve had a wonderful experience with The guardian Hamilton. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and supported. The educators are not only professional and knowledgeable but also genuinely caring and attentive to each child’s unique needs.

Our child has grown so much socially and emotionally under their care. We’ve seen real development in communication skills, creativity, and confidence. The daily activities are well thought-out and engaging, and the regular updates give us peace of mind knowing our child is in great hands.

We are truly grateful to the entire team for creating such a warm, nurturing, and safe environment. Highly recommend to any parent looking for quality early childhood education!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your beautiful feedback Lisa! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that your experience with us has been such a positive one from the very beginning.

Our educators are passionate about creating a nurturing and engaging environment, and your kind words affirm the love and dedication they bring to every day. We’re especially glad that you’ve felt supported and reassured through regular updates and thoughtful activities.

I've only been with Guardian Childcare Hamilton for a few months, but I have really come to love it. The team are wonderful, it really shows how much care and love they have for the children and families. They are all very professional and knowledgeable and have always been so warm and welcoming. It's nice to have such a small centre and groups and such large open spaces.

Phia R.
Petit ELJ Hamilton is literally the daycare a parent DREAMS of. From the facilities to the staff there is not a weak point to speak of. I was lucky enough to have Jackline and E-J to watch my little one at her time there and when I say I was DISTRAUGHT to leave the centre I mean that wholeheartedly. And not to forget Monica and Megan being the best administration staff I’ve ever had to help me I cannot fault this centre in the least. I felt beyond safe and happy to leave my precious baby in their care, you’d be lucky to find a centre more capable than this. Honestly this is my third daycare and I NEVER felt happier with a centre than I have here.
Kianna A.
It’s been 1 month since joining the centre and I have absolutely nothing to fault about them! They have been so welcoming, loving, calming and most of all supportive towards my boy who’s struggled to find comfort in other centres. The teachers, the chef, the management have all played such a big role in making my son feel safe and comfortable. As a parent who used to cry seeing my son scream and refuse to go to school to now seeing him so happy and as he likes to say ‘super excited’ is the most relieving feeling a parent could feel. This centre is so beautiful and I’m so glad we have finally found somewhere where my son is able to learn new things everyday and most of all have fun! My son will be 4 this year and most of his life he’s been at home with me and even when we attempted to send him to other centres, whether or not it wasn’t the right timing for him or he just didn’t feel comfortable with the centre themselves I’m not sure but from day 1 of him being with Petit, he has not cried once dropping him off and that for me was a sign that he feels comfortable and enjoys it here. His teachers, Miss Maddie and Miss Kaitlyn are amazing! I feel like both those ladies have played an enormous part in ensuring a safe and playful environment for my son and I couldn’t be more thankful and grateful for them! Highly highly recommend this centre to all families who are considering this centre for their little ones. You will not be disappointed!
David P.
A very nice and caring daycare. Our daughter currently attends and has been there for 2 years. She is so happy there and has a great bond with some of the educators especially Kaitlin. The educators are really friendly and helpful.
Kaitlyn W.
Our two year old has absolutely thrived at this centre. The educators are wonderful and have supported him with his play, social skills, language and creativity. The centre provides great meals and easily caters to our son’s anaphylaxis and allergies. They have regular incursions and events, coordinate play activities and learning opportunities based on the children’s interests and have plenty of art, stories, music and outdoor play! We would highly recommend this centre to anyone in the area.

A team of educated and passionate professionals, working in a well-resourced, purpose built and welcoming environment, facilitating and promoting learning in all different aspects of learning and development.
Grace M.
We are soooo sad we’re leaving. You have been so welcoming, warm, helpful and have become household names haha special mentions to Monica & Megan. Honestly, you’ve restored my faith in childcare services. I already had reservations with Eliana’s eczema, but your over and above help and love just gave me such relief, encouragement and absolute assurance that I made the right choice in choosing Petit ELJ @ Hamilton.

It makes such a massive difference when your educators not only educate your children, but actually love them too.

Thank you all sooooo much!! We will miss you dearly x
rachael and brenton T.
Our two boys have absolutely loved their journey with Petit Early Learning and as parents, we could not be happier. The staff are all so kind and caring and the centre is beautiful and clean at all times. I always feel at ease knowing that our youngest will have the best day ever with his friends and educators. Can't recommend enough! Thank you for making our daycare/kindy journey such a positive one. :-)

An incredible place for your little one to start their life and adventures!! Learning and playing is always on!
Sasha P.
My son loves it! I was so nervous moving him from a different day care.
But he loved it from day 1! He is so happy! He turn around, says bye mama and off he goes to feed worms 🪱
So much outdoor play and exploring!
He is very looked after!
Can not recommend this centre highly enough!
Elyse M.
We love all of the educators, especially love all the effort Monica, Angela, Rhea, and Dianna put in to help the children feel loved, and developing their emotion, social, and creativity skills with lots of fun activities!
Ashleigh N.
Our children have been apart of the Petit Hamilton family since 2018. Petit is a second home for our kids - the educators are caring, kind and invested in the childrens education and well being. We are constantly impressed with what our kids are learning, the additions to the environment (animals, new equipment and programs) and the food they are eating each day. We love our Petit family!
Samantha C.
Right from the beginning of our son’s care petit Hamilton have shown professionalism and knowledge in how best to support our son . We are always greeted with a friendly, family orientated welcome that puts you at ease. Over the last year we have seen our son develop both with his communication skills and social skills as he has made friends and explored all the vast activities on offer daily. When I walk out the door there is never a concern on my mind, knowing he will have a great day of fun, learning ans exploration. Couldn’t recommend the centre enough!

Biljana P.
My daughter has been going to the Petit ELJ Hamilton centre continuously since 31/10/2017 and I can't even find enough praising words for the staff at this centre. The focus on the children's' well being, individual and intellectual growth is exemplary. Individual needs are always seen to with great attention and beautiful friendships are supported! We have been recommending and will keep recommending Petit ELJ Hamilton to people with young children we meet in our daily life. It is a well deserved recommendation, too!
Lauren
We have two children enrolled at Petit Journey Hamilton and would never change. Both our girls love all the educators and we absolutely love Kate the director. Kate is so caring and passionate about everything she does. She genuinely cares about the children and families. She always tries to accommodate us with last minute days if we need them also. My girls love Bec, Chelsea and Jade and I know they are loved and cared for while in care.
Kirsten G.
What can i say!! After a horriffic experience at a previous childcare center, finding Petit Hamilton was a absolute god send!! My son had separation anxiety quite badly but with the staff at petit he feels safe and secure to run off and play with his friends and no tears (from him or I). The center is warm and has a great atmosphere with the staff always saying hello/goodbye and making you feel welcome . The children are happy and always kept busy. With a massive play area and boats tooting their horns as they cruise past you cant go wrong with petit Hamilton!
Cristina D.
We have had a very positive experience with Petit at Hamilton - always a relaxed vibe and Kate is fantastic.

My son has been in the nursery with Miss Lisa and Heather and is now in Burrows Lane and he hugs his teachers when he arrives.

When Neil first started with Petit, we were very apprehensive as this was a big change, right from new country, new culture and new teachers. We are very glad that we chose this center as his first school, because Petit has accommodated Neil's each and every need and at the same time groomed him with all the basic etiquettes. It has been an excellent place for our child, he loves going to school everyday and changes that we could see in him are far beyond any words, especially the language.
He has made best buddies and has lot of fun at the center, he loves the pool parties!!!!
I would also like to thank Lorin and other educators for all the good work.

We thank you all again for making this transition very smooth for us (Neil in particular), Special thanks to Ms. Cindy(he adores her :-)) to make the day care part of his daily life. All the very best, keep up the great work!!!!
Amy N.
My son is happy and excited to go to Petit every morning. He looks forward to the creative activities, singing songs and reading new stories with his teachers and friends.

The staff have a passion for what they do and that shows in the children's enthusiasm to learn new things. The environment is a very happy one.

We are very happy with Petit Early Learning Journey Northshore Hamilton!

Rhythm of the Day

We know children (and families) like routine. Whilst no two days of learning are ever the same - here's what a day at Guardian might look like.

Morning

Our friendly Nursery team of familiar educators will be there to greet you and support your baby to settle in for the day.  Breakfast time is available & families are welcome to stay and enjoy with the children. This is also a great chance for conversation to share what is important and how your baby’s night at home was.

Mid-Morning

Our nursery learning environments are set up indoors and outdoors for your baby to engage with a variety of planned experiences while they interact with our team such as exploring picture books, singing songs together. We also offer morning tea.

Middle of the Day

Dependent on the needs of every baby, we time lunch to suit the children. Team members will support your child to eat and/or have a bottle, and when they are ready, are gently settled for sleep or rest. With an open-door policy, families can enjoy lunch/bottle time with your baby if you wish.

Mid-Afternoon

Our nursery planned experiences (both indoor and outdoor) continue and there are opportunities for movement, playing games, more books and songs, or sensory exploration. Afternoon snack is provided.

End of Day

We’ll have your baby’s belongings ready for you at pick up time. The Nursery team will share information about your baby’s day and their learning, preparing you and your child for a smooth transition to your evening. Please grab a piece of fruit or snack on the way out!

Hamilton Centre Manager Image

Rebecca

Our Centre team, led by our experienced Centre Manager Rebecca, prides themselves on creating a great sense of community for all families.

Each role in the Centre is designed to work together to help create a nurturing environment for every child in each of our learning spaces.

In our Nursery Room, the dedicated team has a special role in creating secure attachments, routines, and strong relationships. Unique to Guardian nurseries is our Baby Ambassador, who is your go-to person for you and your baby’s first 12 months with us. They will know every detail about your baby: how breast or bottle milk is managed, how they like to eat, their sleeping routines, the nappies they wear, and more. With babies as young as six weeks in the Centre, it’s the Baby Ambassador’s job to work with families and Educators to help make our Nursery feel just like home.

Our Educators across the age groups work together to create fun, stimulating, and age-appropriate experiences for every child in their care. They are dedicated, experienced professionals who are allocated to a specific room so they can get to know each child individually and support their learning and development.

As part of our 2-year Flying Start to School program, we have degree-qualified Teachers who use the latest teaching practices to help your child build essential practical and social skills, ensuring they’re ready for their next big adventure—school!

Each room has a Lead Educator or Teacher who is responsible for planning and implementing an effective ongoing cycle of planning, documentation, and evaluation of the room’s learning program.

At the core of the Centre is our Cook—make sure you check out their daily menu when you visit. They help make food part of the learning journey and love seeing how children respond to new and exciting flavours.

The team is supported by a strong Leadership Team, including an Assistant Centre Manager and an Educational Leader.

Every role at the Centre is as important as the next.

How will you share updates about my child’s day?

Great communication is vital in our collaborative partnerships with families at the Centre. We have a variety of different ways we communicate with you about your child’s learning and progress:


  1. Storypark app - Stay connected to your child's day with regular updates, including photos and learning insights

  2. Pick-up and drop-off updates – Our Educators will share highlights from their day, including experiences they enjoyed, mealtimes, and naps to support your evening routine.

  3. In-room learning exchange displays make our weekly learning plans easy to see so you know what your child will be learning.

  4. Centre Newsletters – Great for community connection and wider Centre and team updates.

  5. Development documentation and meetings for your individual child’s progress.


But remember our door is always open.

Out and about

Through excursions, children are supported to expand their world, to get to know their community, and have a sense of belonging. Their learning thrives when they feel safe, welcome, and that they belong.

STEM

Children discover the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through age-appropriate activities that are designed to foster curiosity and develop foundational skills like problem-solving and creativity.

Cooking

Cooking experiences teach numeracy by counting ingredients, and weighing and measuring quantities and volume, while managing these tasks supports independence and confidence.

Joy of Reading

Reading aloud to children each day inspires imagination and supports thinking. Books with rhythm, rhyme and word patterns make stories more playful and memorable.
