We’ve been sending our 16mth old son here for 5 months and have been very happy with the care they provide. The educators are extremely caring & have passion and skill for what they do. It’s never an easy transition to childcare for the first time, for parents as well as little ones, and they made it easy for us. I have confidence leaving my son there. The food provided is all cooked on site and really great.The site is purpose built, with lovely big bright rooms. The play equipment and toys are also wonderful. The outdoor area is shaded, with large sandpits, and I love how they’ve got little vege boxes too, which they plant with the children. They do creative activities with the kids and I love the little photo updates on the app to show us some of what they’ve done.

Our purpose-built Langwarrin childcare centre has been designed to trigger imagination and engage curious minds to support the development of babies to 4-year-old kindergarten.

Our Guardian Langwarrin day care and childcare centre is conveniently Situated on Union Road in leafy Langwarrin, near The Gateway Shopping Centre with easy access to Cranbourne-Frankston Road, our brand-new early childhood centre is now open.

Our exciting, resource-rich environments include:

Children attending our Guardian Langwarrin child care centre will also have the chance to see the same familiar faces as they move on up from our nursery room, into our Kindergarten program, designed specifically to help prepare your child transition from early learning to primary school.

As part of our unique Visible Learning Program, families will also have the chance to gain an understanding of their child’s learning.
