About Guardian Childcare & Education Westgarth

Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Westgarth. Our purpose-built child care centre within the inner-city Melbourne suburb of Northcote features seven beautifully designed learning spaces, two infant sleep rooms, six art rooms, a dining hall, a visual learning room and three libraries! 

  • Guardian’s exclusive To BE Me program creates a unique learning adventure for every child. It demonstrates clearly how play connects to learning and development, offering families new insights and a lifelong record of these important years. 
  • 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.
  • With a strong focus on safety and wellbeing, we’re proud to be a trusted choice for safe childcare.

    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.

    We’re proud to provide the best local childcare in Westgarth, where every child is supported to thrive. Book a tour today!

Reviews for Guardian Childcare & Education Westgarth

Tyler Pukatchabout 1 month ago

We looked at several long daycare/kindergartens (10-ish) for our 3 year old who had never been in care before, and the other review(s) here are spot on that it is a new, clean, warm and inviting space. From the moment we brought our little guy in to the tour, he immediately jumped in and partook as if he had been going there for years and we knew it was meant to be. Six months in and he is still enjoying himself immensely, making friends, eating well, and learning new skills, practical, educational and emotional. Big shout out, first and foremost, to our kinder leaders Akkul and Isuri, and the rest of the team, Miss Iris, Ambia, Yuni and Santina, Raffia and Rusha at the front. Absolutely love the (near) daily Storypark updates of pictures of all the fun activities, crafts, exercises and games our little guy gets up to. Just outstanding. Couldn't ask for a better place. If you're looking for care anywhere in the surrounding Northcote area, just include them in your tours. You've got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
