At Guardian Brunswick day care centre, children get out and about on regular excursions, so we have a great connection with the surrounding community. We visit local attractions such as the creek, cafes, parks, Bunnings, the library and nearby supermarkets.

With a diverse and community-minded team of Educators who have been with the Centre for a long time, we are proud to celebrate a variety of cultures and holidays throughout the year. These celebrations also provide the opportunity to teach children about diversity and the world around them.

Our on-site chef prepares five nutritionally balanced meals using seasonal ingredients every day. To further explore food at Guardian Brunswick, our Educators host hands-on cooking classes where the children get involved and enhance their understanding of good nutrition.

The Victorian Government offers funding to provide families up to 15 hours of Free Kindergarten a week, in addition to the Childcare Subsidy. The funding offsets the fees for three and four-year-old children that are part of the centre’s long day care Kindergarten program. Families will save up to $2,101 a year for children aged three-years-old and above in eligible long day cares in 2025. Ask us for more information when you visit our Centre.
