In addition to light-filled indoor spaces, there are three large outdoor areas for each age group. The Centre offers two fortnightly incursions, every second Monday is Hey De Ho (a music and movement workshop) & every second Friday is Sports for Kinders. Guardian Point Cook West also includes a thriving community garden and a number of loving pets for the children to enjoy and learn from.

Our day care centre is rated ‘Exceeding!’ What does that mean? Every six months, our Centres are assessed by ACECQA, the national body with the responsibility for monitoring the quality of all registered child care centres in Australia. A rating of Exceeding National Quality Standard means that you can be assured that this Centre is providing an exceptional level of care and attention for your child.

Our long day care centre in Point Cook is conveniently situated for families living in and near the surrounding suburbs of Hoppers Crossing, Truganina, Werribee and Seabrook.

Our engaging, resource-rich early learning environments include:

  • Inspiring, light-filled learning spaces to inspire curiosity, fun, and a sense of belonging

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.

Children attending our Centre will also have the chance to see the same familiar faces as they move on up from our nursery room, into our Point Cook North Kindergarten program, designed specifically to help prepare your child to 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. Easily accessible for families, our Learning Exchange Display provides the opportunity for our Teachers and Educators to share with you any updates on their progress every day. You will also have the chance to share with us your own personal goals and visions for us to implement, having direct input in your child’s educational journey!

Families will also be given access to our family communication app Storypark, where we will share with you any significant updates in your child’s day, as well as any other important updates that happen in our centre – ensuring that you’re always connected, even when you’re not here.

I placed my daughter in this centre in October 2024. Having moved from NZ in mid 2024, Monica needed a place that made her feel like she belonged and to make new friends. She has thrived and absolutely loves it. The management are fantastic, friendly and helpful. Looking forward to seeing my daughter develop further and enrol my second child next year!

We enrolled our baby to Guardian Point Cook West from another Guardian branch as we moved. Initially I was really worried thinking it would be hard for my baby to get adjusted to the new place. But soon I’ve experienced that the educators here are providing excellent care for children and they helped my baby to feel comfortable and have a smooth transition. I’ve seen a good improvement within few weeks. Big thanks to the management and all the lovely staff

Great atmosphere for the childcare facility with such a caring staff. Very happy with the development of our youngest one currently attending there and couldn't be happier with the services offered by the centre management. The staff looks after the kids and provides regular updates on their development journey. They particularly helped us during the settling down period and have been very communicative on regular basis and uploads to Story Park. We highly recommend this Childcare facility to families who are looking for one in the market!

It has been almost a year that our daughter moved to Guardian Point Cook West from another Guardian centre and I have to admit that this centre exceeded our expectations around quality of education, services and care. The centre management team members are very welcoming, supportive and communicative which brings another layer of support and assurance to parents.

My daughter absolutely loves going to school every day. She loves her teachers and friends and the teachers and staff makes her feel very loved.And inbetween she learns and play. I love dropping her off at school without feeling guilty, knowing that she will have a great day, everyday. That’s really all I want as her mum.

Love love love this childcare. My bub has been here for 2 months now and she’s loving it. She didn’t really take long to settle and feels the connection with her educators. Every morning before I drop her, she’s super excited to go to the center, waves bye and doesn’t even turn around; she’s only 14 months old. Speaks volumes about how well she is looked after here and how Sare she feels here. Would highly recommend this place! 10 stars if I could.

We enrolled our 2 children with Guardian since January and it sure has been the best choice we’ve made. Our children loves being at care and our Kinder daughter always have something exciting to tell us.The management (Danii, Alicia & Steph) and staff are the best. They always go the extra mile to make sure that we have the best experience and it has been from day 1.We strongly recommend this Childcare care centre to other parents who are looking for the centre that gives their 100% to our children’s learning as well as us parents.You guys are amazing 😍

My two children have attended this centre for 2 years, and have never had a bad interaction or experience. We were sold on the centre as soon as we entered and saw the genuine happiness of all staff and children.The learning programs the centre runs are based on sustainability and wellbeing, of both staff and the children, and the effectiveness of these are clear from the joy my children express when they come home, and the conversations we have regularly with staff.We get daily written and photo updates of our childrens' learning journeys, and it is clear the staff are committed to their work and to the children.

We have just joined the Guardian Childcare & Kinder Centre and absolutely so pleased we did as it’s only down the road, from the very beginning of our tour it has given myself as well as my husband reassurance while our Son attends that he is in the best care. Considering this is his first year into any type of care. He absolutely LOVES IT !! The learning behind scenes and being amongst other children as this is a great stepping stone for preparation for school come next year. It’s nice to see that the children are valued, greeted by the kindest staff and educators. They do a FANTASTIC job !!! I highly recommend if you are looking to put your child into care this is the place for them to explore and learn, grow and have a absolute ball with all there new little friends they will make along the way. THANK YOU ! POINT COOK WEST GUARDIAN STAFF

THERE IS NO BETTER CHILDCARE CENTRE!Honestly, having worked in the field, as well as our son being enrolled in two other centers before we relocated to the area, my expectations were extremely high. The staff at Guardian Point Cook West always go above and beyond that even from our very first interaction we were extremely impressed.Their professionalism, timely communication, thoughtfulness, and CARE is unmatched. Our son's development and growth in the last six months after joining the PCW family is extremely evident. Family is the best word to describe the centre as they always make such an effort to not only connect with our son, but us as parents as well. Even during the ever-stressful lockdown times, they took further efforts to keep us all informed.The activities and play areas are always so engaging. The educators send us weekly activity plans so we know what projects they are working on. We get daily photos and updates. The menu always has such a variety and must taste good as our soon often has double serves. All the different pets they have. The list goes on.We are so so grateful to have joined the PCW family and we can never thank them enough for the happy confident little boy they are helping us raise, so hopefully this review can help other families make as great as a decision as we have.

The best childcare ever! We have sent our son for more than 1 year! Couldn’t be happier with the centre, especially educators! They are the best at their profession, our family highly respects their work! My wife and I had been to 7+ centres for a tour and decided to send our son to this centre! It was the right/best decision. We really think some educators at this centre are the world’s best (by the way, we have also sent our son to 3 other places like a day care, 3 years kindergarten, another childcare previously). Thank you so much all the staff at Guardian Point Cook West.

My child has been in this center since 11 months old, and had to leave due to family relocation. He loved this center as i can see how happy he was when i picked him up. Educators are caring and reliable. Staffs are responsive and efficient. Meals are great he had at least 2 serves every time.

Love this centre! My daughter started care from10mos and now she’s two and definitely love seeing and being with her educators n gained friendships!We have been pleased with the level of care Guardian Pointcook has provided my daughter. We researched many daycare facilities within the area and selected this because of their high-quality curriculum from Explorers (previous centre) until now.She definitely enjoyed her time there very much and my husband and I have been incredibly impressed with their nurturing caring and professional approach to child care. Thank you so much for all you have done in making my daughter feel comfortable cared for and safe.Best centre with amazing educators! Food they serve to kids are amazing too!Daily updates of activities and center via Storypark app to see the kids daily activities.Centre Manager Danii, Mel and Lisa are very accommodating.Educators like Priti, Yurini,Bhavika, Espie,Sharon, Arlene, Silvana, Prisca,Rodelyn, Laura, Steph, Kavitha!

After visiting over 10 different child care centers in the Point Cook area my partner and I found that Explorers Early Learning had immediately won us over. Explorers is warm, inviting, and has a homely feel. The educators and staff are awesome at what they do and have such nurturing natures which is what we loved most overall. After only a few months of a attending Explorers, my son is thriving! He's become independent, confident, social and loves learning. We highly recommend Explorers Early Learning Point Cook!

Words are not enough to say how grateful we are to find the perfect centre for our beautiful daughter. She has been in the Point Cook centre for 4 years and she will be graduating at the end of the year. All the educators are highly dedicated, intentional and motivated. They have supported my child in every way and management have been very helpful all this years too. It would be very hard for us leave as miss K starts school next year but we will forever cherish the memories.Would highly recommend Explorers Point Cook.

I just moved from Pakenham and was looking at nearly 12 childcares before I got to Explorers. I loved it the mom I enetered it and the staffs are very nice. Getting in was tough but once you’re in, it’s worth the wait. My daughter loves it and they’ve made her transition into this new place easy for her. I’d recommend this place hands down. I’m so impressed with the way they handle kids, the food is amazing and ambience is clean n fun. I’m going to join my second child as well here soon. Thanks for the super job u guys do everyday 😊👍🏼

Words are not enough to say just how happy we are with Explorers. My son started very shy and quiet, and has blossomed into a confident and inquisitive young boy in just 1 year! I love how their programs have so much room for open learning, problem solving and activities to support their strengths.But the best part of it all is how they support children, including my son who has special needs. The care that educators provide are tailored fit to cater each child. The management and the educators always go out of their way to accommodate the children and the families. I'll recommend Explorers again and again.

We've had our daughter here for 2 years and couldn't be happier. Every member of the staff we've encountered is genuinely caring and loves the kids. Our daughter has learnt so much more than we could have taught her from being at this centre. It's further away from our house than other places but we would really struggle to pull our daughter out of such a great environment. Cannot recommend enough.

Rhythm of the Day

We know children (and families) like routine. Whilst no two days of learning are ever the same - here's what a day at Guardian might look like.

Whilst no two days of learning are ever the same - here's what a day at Guardian might look like.

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.

Breakfast time where families are welcome to stay and enjoy breakfast with the children.

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.

There's an opportunity for children to come together and enjoy morning tea.

Following morning tea, the planned experiences continue. This includes both indoor and outdoor programs.

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 excursion if they wish.

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.

Children come together for afternoon tea in small groups or with siblings (they can also rest and play together, too). This time also presents an opportunity to reflect on the day.

As families arrive to pick up children, there's an opportunity to speak to Educators and share information about 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.

What's included in the Guardian Experience

From nutritious meals and engaging learning programs —it’s all covered in your daily rate. No hidden extras, just peace of mind for you and a great day for your child.

Holly and team

Our Centre team, led by our experienced Centre Manager Holly, prides themselves on creating a great sense of community for all families.

Each role in the Centre is designed to work together to help create a nurturing environment for every child in each of our learning spaces.

In our Nursery Room, the dedicated team has a special role in creating secure attachments, routines, and strong relationships. Unique to Guardian nurseries is our Baby Ambassador, who is your go-to person for you and your baby’s first 12 months with us. They will know every detail about your baby: how breast or bottle milk is managed, how they like to eat, their sleeping routines, the nappies they wear, and more. With babies as young as six weeks in the Centre, it’s the Baby Ambassador’s job to work with families and Educators to help make our Nursery feel just like home.

Our Educators across the age groups work together to create fun, stimulating, and age-appropriate experiences for every child in their care. They are dedicated, experienced professionals who are allocated to a specific room so they can get to know each child individually and support their learning and development.

As part of our 2-year Flying Start to School program, we have degree-qualified Teachers who use the latest teaching practices to help your child build essential practical and social skills, ensuring they’re ready for their next big adventure—school!

Each room has a Lead Educator or Teacher who is responsible for planning and implementing an effective ongoing cycle of planning, documentation, and evaluation of the room’s learning program.

At the core of the Centre is our Cook—make sure you check out their daily menu when you visit. They help make food part of the learning journey and love seeing how children respond to new and exciting flavours.

The team is supported by a strong Leadership Team, including an Assistant Centre Manager and an Educational Leader.

Every role at the Centre is as important as the next.

How will you share updates about my child’s day?

Great communication is vital in our collaborative partnerships with families at the Centre. We have a variety of different ways we communicate with you about your child’s learning and progress:


  1. Storypark app - Stay connected to your child's day with regular updates, including photos and learning insights

  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.

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.

STEM

Children discover the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through age-appropriate activities that are designed to foster curiosity and develop foundational skills like problem-solving and creativity.

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.
