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.

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.

Guardian Childcare & Education Pasadena is a beautiful, open-plan centre located on Fiveash Road. It provides high-quality care and education for families in Pasadena and the nearby suburbs of Westbourne Park, Colonel Light Gardens and Bedford Park. . Guardian Pasadena is one of our newest childcare centres in Adelaide, providing more access to early learning for families in the surrounding suburbs.
Our Pasadena early childhood education programs are focused on play-based learning, and our spacious day care and child care centre provides a nurturing and stimulating environment for children aged six weeks to six years of age, supporting them to discover the world in a safe and secure way. Our childcare centre, with long day care services, is filled with bright, stimulating materials that encourage children to explore and engage their curiosity to discover more about the exciting world around them.
Children at Pasadena day care are supported through those important early years to explore and develop their social and emotional skills through their early learning journey by a dedicated team of university-qualified Teachers and Educators. They create learning experiences in a nurturing environment that fosters creativity and imagination in a safe environment for young age groups.
Guardian Pasadena is open from 6.30 am to 6.30 pm every weekday, so there’s plenty of flexibility for drop off and pick ups. During drop-off or pick-up times, we encourage you to stay for a little while and spend some time exploring the learning environment.
Our family communication app, Storypark, provides you with photos and updates on your child throughout the day, offering you the opportunity to stay informed about your child’s early learning and development.
For children aged three and four, we have a kindergarten program led by university-qualified Teachers that can support your child from birth to school age. Our program is led by specialist Educational Leaders who guide teaching and learning in a flexible and research-supported way.
Through our high-quality Pasadena kindergarten program, children have the opportunity to learn some of the skills that are often only introduced in early primary school. We begin learning and exploring shapes, numbers and letters through fun, play-based activities.
We develop each child’s literacy and numeracy skills to help them feel confident and prepared during the challenging leap into primary school. Our high-quality program supports the needs and routines of each of our families, and we ensure each child’s cultural and family background is supported and encouraged.
We’re committed to children’s nutrition, and our on-site cook prepares each meal fresh and packed with all the nutrients that children need at their age. 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.
Why not come and meet the team and have a look around our Pasadena childcare centre today? We’d love to show you why Guardian Childcare & Education Pasadena is the perfect learning environment for your child. At Guardian, we believe that together, we can give young children the best start to life. Contact our team today to book a tour.
