Guardian Early Learning – Caulfield North

Every day is an opportunity for discovery and growth at Guardian Early Learning – Caulfield North. With a range of exciting, resource-rich environments including four spacious yards, herb gardens, sandpits, shady trees, natural play structures, and a range of age-specific ateliers, children are encouraged to explore and learn.

The light-filled and spacious centre also holds French lessons, yoga classes, weekly family breakfasts, and an interactive indoor/outdoor program for the children to enjoy.

We are proud to have a culturally diverse team and celebrate a variety of cultures and holidays throughout the year. To further explore our community, children get out and about for fortnightly excursions including the local aged care centre and park.

Our on-site chef prepares four nutritionally balanced meals using seasonal ingredients every day. To further explore food at the centre, our chef hosts cooking classes for the children to get involved in to enhance their understanding of good nutrition.

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.

  • From 7.30am

    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.

  • 9:00

    Breakfast time and 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 comes 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 excursions 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 together 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.
