What families say about us
Educators are great, awesome communication every day, just hoping leadership/ management settles in for awhile.

My children have always been happy here and have had no problems.

I genuinely feel like he is safe and cared for.
Queen Street
The educators here are not just professional; they are exceptionally warm and friendly. They greet us each day with genuine smiles and have an incredible way of making both children and parents feel welcomed and valued. It's evident in the way they interact with my kids - always attentive, engaging, and so loving. My children have formed strong bonds with their carers, which is a testament to the nurturing environment Guardian provides.
Sunnybank
The enthusiasm of the staff with their job. Staffs' contentment in their workplace translates to good care to my little one. The staff selected possesses all the qualities I am looking for - evidence based approach of care using the reggio model of letting the child lead. Staff have attributes of kindness and warmth. They don't force a child out of the parents arms at drop off. They work hard with the family to accommodate every request (which I know can be very difficult). They don't judge. So important when you're a busy working mom who occasionally forgets to pack a water bottle or clothes or forget to dress rhe child in the theme of the day as did not have time to read the latest email

All teachers and admin staff and kitchen staff are just awsome in all way
