Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Newstead, a modern, spacious child centre in Brisbane’s inner-north. We’re proud of our centre, and we believe this is the best childcare in Newstead.
Proud winner of the GOLD Family Choice Award 2025. As determined by our existing families rating their experience of our Centre via Family Satisfaction Survey and independent Google Reviews.
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.
The Queensland Government offers funding to provide families up to 15 hours of free kindergarten a week (40 weeks per year). The funding off sets the fees for children who turn four years old by 30 June in the year before they attend primary school. This support is in addition to the Child Care Subsidy and can help to lower your out-of-pocket fees.
We understand how big those first steps into childcare are, and our Baby Ambassador and expert Nursery team is here to make the transition calm and reassuring for both you and your baby.
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.
Ideally located for families commuting to Brisbane CBD for work. Book a tour and visit us today!

To BE Me is Guardian’s exclusive learning program specifically designed for each age and stage of your child’s early years.
The program includes resources and tools that support learning and make it easy to see your child’s progress along Learning and Development Pathways.
It groups your child’s learning into seven areas to help you see this progress clearly. Each of these areas has behaviours or skills that are generally linked to each age and stage.
Children receive their own My Learning and Development Book, which is updated regularly with their progress.

We believe in nutrition for life, supporting children to develop healthy eating habits from an early age. Qualified Chefs and Cooks in our centres create fresh and nutritious meals each day, using seasonal, high-quality ingredients that align with Australian Dietary Guidelines.
Meals are designed to be delicious, introduce children to diverse flavours, and make eating healthy food a positive experience.
Managing allergies and intolerances is part of how we keep mealtimes safe and enjoyable. Every child’s needs are carefully tracked, meals are supervised by permanent educators, and allergens are strictly controlled.
Beyond providing wholesome food, we use mealtimes as learning opportunities. Children practice independence by serving themselves and engaging in conversations about food, building confidence and understanding of healthy choices.

Gloria and Bella have been part of Guardian at Newstead since they were babies, and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better place for them to grow. The educators are amazing—so caring and patient—and they’ve created such a warm, welcoming environment. Our girls have learned so much, made beautiful friendships, and always come home happy and excited to share what they’ve done. The communication is fantastic too—updates, photos, and little stories that make us feel connected even when we’re at work. We’re so grateful for everything the team has done for our family. If you’re looking for a daycare that feels like a second home, this is it! 💜

We’ve had a really positive experience with Guardian Childcare in Newstead. The team has always been warm, professional, and clearly dedicated to the wellbeing and development of the children. Since Reagan stepped in as Centre Manager, we’ve noticed a new level of consistency and calm across the board. Her leadership has brought a real sense of stability that’s been great for both staff and families. The educators genuinely care about the kids and build lovely relationships with them. Communication with parents is clear and consistent, and we always feel informed about how our child is doing and what they’re learning. The activities are varied and age-appropriate, and the environment is safe, clean, and thoughtfully set up. Our child is happy and settled there, which is really all we could ask for. We feel confident dropping them off each day, knowing they’re being well cared for and engaged. Highly recommend to other families in the area
It’s wonderful to hear how much your family has connected with the Guardian community. Knowing that our team’s care, consistency, and commitment to each child’s development is making a meaningful impact is incredibly rewarding. Reagan’s leadership has brought a calm and steady presence to the centre, and we’re so glad that’s been felt by both families and staff. Our educators are passionate about what they do, and it’s lovely to hear that their relationships with the children and clear communication with parents are standing out. Seeing your child happy, settled, and thriving is exactly what we strive for every day. We truly appreciate your kind words and your recommendation to other families in the area.
