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.

To BE Me is underpinned by Guardian’s world class teaching program that has been developed over many years of research and thousands of hours observing how children develop.

Health and Nutrition

Health and Nutrition

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.

All the staff at Guardian are lovely. We've been coming here for years and have always felt comfortable handing our little girl over in the morning, knowing that she's going to have a great time with the educational activities, she's going to eat amazingly well from the on-site chef and she's going to have lots of fun with her friends. It's also in a quiet, leafy, family-friendly setting and has a wonderful outdoor space for play.

Response from the owner 10 Jul 2025

Thank you so much for your kind words and continued trust over the years Drew. We’re so happy to hear that your little one enjoys her time with us, from engaging in educational activities to sharing delicious meals prepared by our on-site chef. Creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment is what we strive for every day, and it’s wonderful to know that you feel confident and comfortable each morning. We also love that you appreciate our beautiful outdoor space, it’s a favourite among the children too. Thank you again for being part of our community!
