Learn More About Our Centre expand_more
Guardian Childcare & Education Paradise was established in 2006 and is a long day care service. Our Paradise early learning centre is in walking distance from the O’Bahn bus service at the Paradise Interchange, with an easy commute into Adelaide CBD. We provide high quality education and care for children 6 weeks – 6 years.
Our centre is cosy, warm and caring with plenty of space for children to discover, play, and learn. We boast two beautiful ateliers spaces which are rich in resources where our children can extend and deepen their creativity and learning. We also invite members of the community to run a range of workshops in these spaces from clay and flower workshops to science presentations.
Our outdoor classrooms consist of several unique, challenging and sensory aware areas allowing children to challenge themselves within a natural play environment. From individual and group play to spontaneous and planned experiences, our curriculums are designed to help children develop into confident young individuals.
We are proud to have educators, children and families that come from a variety of countries around the world, which means the children have lots of opportunities to learn about different cultures. We make a point to engage with families and learn about their background so that each child feels accepted and welcomed. We value and celebrate different cultures throughout the year.
Come along and see our team in action and find out for yourself why our centre is such a special place.
