We cannot speak highly enough of Guardian Early Learning Centre in Box Hill North. Our bubba who’s now 15 months old, has been attending for several months, and our experience has been nothing short of wonderful.

From the very first tour, we were struck by the warmth of the educators and the vibrant, stimulating environment.

What truly sets Guardian Box Hill North apart is their incredible team. The educators are not just caregivers; they are genuinely invested in each child's development and happiness. They know bubs’ unique personality, interests, and routines intimately. We receive detailed daily updates via the Storypark app, which gives us such peace of mind.

The curriculum is fantastic. It's more than just play; it's purposeful and tailored. We've watched in amazement as our child's confidence, curiosity, and skills have blossomed—from messy sensory play and music sessions to developing early social skills in the beautiful outdoor spaces.

The centre management is also excellent—very professional, communicative, and always open to feedback. They foster a real sense of community.

We are so grateful to have found this extended family for our most precious little one.

Highest recommendation!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Nina, for sharing such kind and thoughtful feedback. It’s so lovely to hear that your experience has been such a positive one from the very first tour, and that your little one has felt so settled and supported. Our educators genuinely care about getting to know each child’s personality, routines, and interests, so it means a lot to know that this has stood out for your family. We’re glad you’ve enjoyed seeing your child’s confidence, curiosity, and social skills grow through the learning experiences, both indoors and outdoors, and that the Storypark updates have helped you feel connected and reassured each day. Your comments about the team and the sense of community really mean a great deal. Thank you again for your lovely recommendation and for trusting us with your child.
Vless N.
Impressed with our tour in this centre with Sue. She’s been very patient and very thorough with details as she was showing us around. Not only is it newly opened with modern facilities, but also tidy, organised, well-lit and ventilated. It’s quite a big centre, with a wide range of ways to learn and play both indoors and outdoors for babies and toddlers. Staff were warm and welcoming too. We havent exprienced their services firsthand yet as we only did the tour, but have no reasons why we cant have our bub placed in here. Five stars!

UPDATE:
7 months in and our son is doing great! Thanks to the lovely and creative educators and staff in the nursery. I like how our son is able to do activities and tasks that he enjoys and are developmentally appropriate for him. I as a parent am always excited to see the photos in Storypark and see what they did for the day.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Vless, and for taking the time to share such a detailed update. We’re so pleased to hear that your tour experience with Sue made a great first impression and that you found the environment welcoming, well organised, and thoughtfully set up for babies and toddlers. It’s especially wonderful to hear how positively the experience has continued over the past seven months. Knowing that your son is thriving, enjoying developmentally appropriate activities, and feeling supported by our creative and caring nursery team means a great deal to us. We’re also glad you’re enjoying the Storypark updates and feeling connected to his learning and daily experiences. Thank you again for your trust and kind words. We truly appreciate your support.

I have had both my daughters at guardian for a year now and they adore it! My daughters frequently ask to go to daycare when we are even on holidays. The staff are so warm and caring and go well beyond for the children. Thanks for being a second family to us

I am impressed with Guardian Childcare at Box Hill North. It's really amazing. The educators here are passionate and genuinely care about each child. There are diverse activities every day. Every Tuesday they also have a half hour happy feet activity. All the children love it. Drop-offs and pick-ups are always smooth, and communication is excellent—the whole environment truly feels warm and happy.

Jun Kai C.
We couldn't believe our luck when this centre opened. It wasn't too far, it was new, and it had vacancies for the days we wanted. And more importantly, it was GOOD.

The educators are simply amazing and extremely caring, especially important in the first few days with bubs adjusting to the new environment. The management team are prompt, clear and thorough with their communication and processes. No stone is left unturned.

There are also a myriad of activities that the kids can participate in that help to stimulate their learning and development. Our little one certainly gets excited about the different things they get to do.

All in all, we're very glad we found such an amazing place where our child can thrive. 10/10
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your amazing review! It sounds like everything lined up perfectly—from the location, to the amazing educators, and thoughtful management team. The care and attention to detail in the first few days, when your little one was adjusting, must have been incredibly reassuring for you. Our team work hard to ensure that they provide not just a safe and nurturing environment but also a stimulating space for learning and development. The fact that your bub gets excited about the activities and spaces, speaks volumes about the quality of care and engagement they’re receiving. It’s so reassuring to know that you’ve found a place where your little one can truly thrive and we look forward to supporting your family during these early years!

Response from the owner:Hi Srimali, Thank you for your five star review. We are very glad that your daughter loves the centre! Our team work hard to ensure that all families feel welcome when starting and attending care and it is great to see that you have had this wonderful experience.
Olivia Z
This is a good centre that doesn't update a flood of photos in 'story park' as if your child is in an Instagram modelling boot. If you are big on photos, don't go. Children here seem well-fed, rested and participating in inclusive group activities. Staff members have a none-for-profit work ethic; the operational team is attentive and responsive. No doubt they are resource-rich; the only downside is there are only 15-20 visitor parking in the basement. Overall, worth a visit and experience.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the awesome review, Olivia! We work hard to meet expectations like yours, and always strive to find ways to improve our centres. Glad to you hear you have had such a great experience!

We know children and families like routine, so you will always receive a warm welcome each morning and an invitation to stay for breakfast. At the end of the day, a smooth transition is assured with your child’s belongings ready for you after a day that fulfils your child's interests and curiosity. In between, the day is filled with new and exciting experiences to engage young minds as part of their early childhood education. Here’s a glimpse of what a day of play-based learning at our childcare centre often looks like.

Morning

Breakfast time provides a great chance for you to share what is important and how your baby’s night at home was.

Mid-Morning

Your baby will enjoy engaging in both our indoor and outdoor nursery environments with planned experiences like songs and story time, followed by morning tea.

Middle of the Day

Your baby’s lunch times will suit their needs, and with our open-door policy, families are welcome to enjoy lunch/bottle time with your baby. When your baby is ready, they are gently settled for sleep and rest.

Mid-Afternoon

Our planned indoor and outdoor nursery experiences continue with the chance for movement, games and more books and songs, with an afternoon snack provided.

End of Day

The Nursery team are eager to share information about your baby’s day and their learning, preparing you and your baby for a smooth transition to your evening.

  2. Pick-up and drop-off updates – Our Educators will share highlights from their day, including experiences they enjoyed, mealtimes, and naps to support your evening routine.

  3. In-room learning exchange displays make our weekly learning plans easy to see so you know what your child will be learning.

  4. Centre Newsletters – Great for community connection and wider Centre and team updates.

  5. Development documentation and meetings for your individual child’s progress.


But remember our door is always open.

Kindergarten Program
Flying start to school

Our Flying Start to School kindergarten program is lead by degree qualified Teachers in a long day care setting. Our specialist two-year program is committed to supporting your child as they prepare for big school. We focus on nurturing their confidence, making friends and social emotional growth while also supporting their abilities in reading, writing, counting, and thinking skills. Whether it’s building with blocks, practicing their first letters, or learning to share with friends, every experience is carefully designed to support your child’s development.

Our Centre is a recipient of funding as part of the VIC Government’s Free Kinder Program. Eligible children aged three years and above will receive up to $2101 in additional subsidies to reduce your out-of-pocket fees. Ask for more details when you tour the centre.

Out and about

Through excursions, children are supported to expand their world, to get to know their community, and have a sense of belonging. Their learning thrives when they feel safe, welcome, and that they belong.

Cooking

Cooking experiences teach numeracy by counting ingredients, and weighing and measuring quantities and volume, while managing these tasks supports independence and confidence.

Ella Language

Learning languages through Early Learning Languages Australia (ELLA) supports brain development and social skills and creates opportunities to celebrate cultural diversity.

Joy of Reading

Reading aloud to children each day inspires imagination and supports thinking. Books with rhythm, rhyme and word patterns make stories more playful and memorable.

Sustainability

From growing veggies and foraging in the garden for that day’s meal ingredients to learning about recycling, children learn about being part of a community, connecting to their environment and understanding their impact on the world.
