Guardian is such a wonderful daycare! My daughter has attended this daycare since she was 6 months old, she’s now 3. She is treated so beautifully by all the educators and staff. This daycare has such a beautiful family feel, I have always felt at ease dropping my daughter off knowing she’ll have the best day. This centre should be so proud of all their staff, the culture speaks for itself. We are truly blessed to have them all as part of our village. I wish I could give them 10 stars!! Much love 🥰🥰

We cannot speak highly enough of Guardian Caringbah! Our daughter started just two months ago, and from day one, the team has been absolutely incredible. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that not only was her transition into the centre smooth, but that we as parents felt supported and reassured throughout the process.Their communication has been outstanding—keeping us informed about our daughter’s emotions, progress, and overall well-being. It’s been such a comfort knowing she is in such caring hands, and the genuine effort they put into making her feel at home has meant the world to us.We are absolutely thrilled with the level of care and dedication from the entire team, and we would love for our daughter to stay at Guardian until she moves on to Big Girl School. If you’re looking for a nurturing, supportive, and professional early learning centre, we couldn’t recommend them more highly!

My child has attended this childcare centre for approximately 18 months and in that time, the educators have consistently demonstrated excellence through their support, helpfulness, and professionalism, and I have never encountered any issues. It appears that my child never comes home very hungry, which I can only attribute to the excellent work of the kitchen staff. Kudos to them for keeping the little ones well-fed and happy! Finally, the Management Team, comprised of Lauren, Liz, and Tammy, has been exceptionally helpful, welcoming, and friendly. If you are considering a childcare centre, I highly recommend this location.

I can’t speak highly enough of Guardian Caringbah, from the office team, to the centre manager Lauren and Assistant Centre Manager Liz, to the educators in every room and staff in the kitchens. My daughter has finally left and gone to big school but my son is in the Nursery room. We have been a part of Guardian since January 2021 and throughout the years they have been incredible! If anyone is looking to enrol their children in preschool - look no further! Highly recommended 💗

We have seen our daughter go from strength to strength in the care of the educators at Guardian Caringbah. Lauren and Tammy do everything in their will to accomodate to all the families needs and making it all seamlessly work. We couldn’t be happier with the care and service at Guardian Caringbah. I would highly recommend it to any family looking for a centre that truly cares for you as a family and seeing your child succeed and grow.

Great place to put your child in - especially preschool level. The education they get it’s unbelievable! Miss Dany is the best. You get photos every day and nutrition every day. Nice modern, clean and lots of light.

Guardian Child Care Caringbah is the most Amazing daycare we have been apart of. The team not only care for the children, but support the parents and families as well. My family moved interstate with no support and Guardian has become my family, my village, my friends. I can’t say enough good things about the Team xx

I had to change my daughter daycare and we ended up visiting the Guardian. From the minute we entered the centre we felt a really warm environment starting from the Manager down to the educators. The centre is spotless with beautiful rooms setup. Our daughter settled in less than a week, she has already created tight bonds with her educators and I can tell how much fun she is having every day.

I have been thrilled with the care and attention that Noah has received at the center, and I am so grateful for the incredible work that his educator, Matt, has done.Matt has been an exceptional caregiver for Noah, and I have been impressed with his commitment to helping Noah develop his sports skills. Matt has been so patient, kind, and focused on the details of Noah's development, and I can see the positive impact he has had on my son.The center itself is warm, welcoming, and has a great atmosphere. The facilities are top-notch, and I always feel confident that my son is in good hands when he is there.Overall, I cannot recommend this childcare center and Matt enough. They have truly been a blessing in our lives, and I am so grateful for everything they have done for Noah. Thank you!

My sister goes here, and has an amazing experience. She has plenty of friends and has a great time. She especially loves the sandwiches they have here lol.The only complaint I have is that a couple of times there’s been situations where we go to pick her up and she might have a bite mark, or got injured from another kid, but it normally gets sorted out very fast and luckily it doesn’t affect her too much. They handle it very well.

Welcome to our Centre

Children learn most readily in an environment where they can experiment, enjoy and discover things for themselves. This intentional way of learning is exactly the kind of environment we’ve created at Guardian Caringbah. Our experienced Educators support learning and development by creating spaces that allow children to view the world differently; inventing, creating and imagining a whole new world of possibilities.

Our beautiful Centre is dedicated to the care of our future generations. Equipped with a large range of resources as well as indoor and outdoor spaces, our educators promote a sense of wonder and curiosity that leads to a lifelong love of learning. The Centre has a range of exciting, resource-rich environments including vegetable gardens, an inbuilt slide, climbing frames, a range of age-specific spaces and a beautiful rooftop garden.

At Guardian Caringbah, we focus on open ended and loose parts resources as they not only create endless opportunities for imagination but can also be adapted and manipulated, encouraging the development of fine motor skills. Our team of qualified and experienced Educators are big believers in ‘messy play,’ which is why our sand and mud pits are always available for the children to experience the joy of getting grubby. Experiencing sensory stimulation from running their hands through mud or jumping in puddles with abandon is priceless. This allows them to connect physically, learning through touch, smell and the occasional taste.

To explore our local community children participate in a range of excursions throughout the year. Our dedicated on-site cook prepares nutritionally balanced meals using seasonal ingredients every day. Creating the menus is a very collaborative process, with many meals being inspired by home recipes from our families.

Children and families also have the added benefit of a Preschool Program led by quality teachers who are there to help prepare your child for the exciting transition to school.

Eligible children who turn 4 years old on or before 31 July 2024 will receive up to $2,110 in additional subsidies. This fee support is on top of any Child Care Subsidy eligible families may be receiving. If your child is 3 years old and not yet 4 years old on, or before 31 July in 2024 and is enrolled at our Centre, you will receive up to $500 in fee relief. Ask us for more information when you visit our Centre. 

Begin the adventure at Guardian Caringbah today by booking a tour or speaking to one of our team.
