Guardian Childcare & Education Bentleigh East

Guardian Childcare & Education Bentleigh East is a modern, vibrant, and inclusive centre welcoming children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. A passionate team of university-qualified teachers and educators deliver personalised play-based programs including an exciting kindergarten transition program. Our centre is a place where children thrive – and families say it’s the best childcare in Bentleigh East. 

To BE Me is Guardian’s exclusive learning program – a game changer that marks a new era in early learning. It reimagines early education, giving families clear insights into how play connects to learning and development.  

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 2026.

Nursery Rooms are our specialty. Our experienced Baby Ambassador and Nursery team take the time to really know your baby’s routines and personality, supporting them to feel safe and settled. Our Nursery rooms are calm, nurturing spaces that feel like a home away from home. 

By focusing on Nutrition for Life, Guardian gives families peace of mind, knowing their children are developing habits that can set them up for a future of exposure to different foods, good eating patterns and healthy eating. Our qualified cook / chef provides 5 healthy foods every day from our in-house kitchen.  

Families trust us to provide safe childcare with the highest standards of safety and care in our centre.
