Every person made the transition to care the best it could be. Open communication and so much kindness and thoughtfulness have made our experience there so great!

The transition for my little one into Guardian's care from another center was very smooth. From the first day she felt comfortable and enjoyed her time with the educators in the center. At the last center she would cry when I dropped her off, but at Guardian she's only cried once.The educators have been supportive and communicated her learning and well being on a daily basis.The food is healthy and looks delicious, the center is clean and vibrant and staff are always friendly.I highly recommend this center!

Guardian Grange is so lovely, the staff are great and activities/education and meals are also of high standard. Hygiene standards are also high and the centre is well designed and very clean. Can't fault them. Guardian has made my grandson so very welcome.

"I cant wait to welcome families into the Centre and share the learning adventure that is the first 5 years of a child's life."
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.
