We’ve been sending our three children to Guardian Collins Street for the past nine years and honestly couldn’t be happier. The environment is warm, supportive, and incredibly well organised. The teachers and educators are fantastic — caring, consistent, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth. As our youngest moves on, we’re sad to be saying goodbye. Guardian Collins Street has been such an important part of our family’s life, and we’re very grateful for the stability, support, and memories over the years. Highly recommend!

Guardian Collins is such a wonderful centre. The educators are extremely friendly, caring and professional. The assistant manager is super supportive and genuinely kind. The children here are well-behaved, and the centre always provides high-quality, engaging activities for them. A very positive and welcoming environment!

The team at Guardian Collins Street have cared for our son since he was one, all the way through to five years old. They not only are centrally located and have great facilities and are warm and welcoming everyday, but importantly, they have provided an exceptional level of care, learning and education throughout the years. The team has strong principles and values, are great communicators and we are very appreciative of the care, support and nurturing our child has received. Couldn't recommend them enough!

I’m so glad a friend recommended this centre to me. Being able to drop my daughter in on my way to work and being so conveniently located to parking and PT makes it one less thing to worry about in the mornings. But the best bit is the wonderful staff! Pat, Cy, Ritu, Amenah, Jas, Zanoba and Aica are all so wonderful, caring and empathetic. Their kindness makes drop off easy and Glenda’s delicious food fills her tummy. She is so happy to come into daycare and her face lights up when she talks about all her friends and educators there. I could not recommend this centre enough!

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Guardian Childcare Centre Collins! The educators and the entire team are incredibly caring, attentive, and dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for the children. My son, Zachary, has absolutely thrived here. He looks forward to attending every day and always comes home excited to share stories about the activities, the friends he’s made, and all the things he’s learned. It’s been so reassuring to know he’s in such capable and compassionate hands. Communication from the staff is always clear, consistent, and thoughtful. It’s evident that they genuinely care about each child’s wellbeing and development. We are especially grateful for the kindness and support they’ve shown Zachary throughout his time at the centre. We couldn’t recommend this centre more highly to any family seeking high-quality early childhood education and care. Thank you for making our son’s early years such a positive and memorable experience!

A good and safe center for kids in the city. The center educational activities, management and staff's are amazing.

I cannot recommend Guardian on Collins Street enough! As someone who didn’t have any extra help with my child, finding a place that felt safe, supportive, and nurturing was everything I needed — and Guardian went above and beyond. Our daughter started at Guardian when she was just 13 months old and stayed until we relocated to another country. From day one, the educators made her feel loved, secure, and right at home. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. We received regular feedback and updates, which kept us closely connected to her day-to-day learning and development. The team also organised amazing activities which were creative, fun, and educational. Over the years, she blossomed in confidence, communication, independence, and social skills. It was incredible to watch her grow in such a warm and enriching environment. I’m so grateful to the entire team at Guardian for their dedication, support, and the genuine love they showed our daughter. This centre truly became an extension of our family, and we will always look back on our time there with so much gratitude.

Great childcare center! Both my children love going here. The staff are so kind and caring and plan great activities and excursions for all ages.

An amazing center! We came here off numerous recommendations from friends. We started sending our child here at 12months and the staff made the transition so easy. It’s been almost a year and all the staff have taken the time to get to know our son and his interests. They are responsive in addressing his emotional and social developmental needs. The center has a fun but relaxed feel, the educators are calm and quick to respond to the children. The photos and videos of the children doing the science experiments, cooking or enjoying free time is always a highlight. I have also been impressed at how accommodating they are with requests for one-off casual days to accommodate unexpected work.

This centre is wonderful. My child enjoys every day there, and I can pick my child up with peace of mind, always greeted by a smile. The childcare staff are deeply committed to the children, providing care tailored to each child's individual needs, and my child actively engages with them. Although our stay was short-term, the experience my child gained was incredibly meaningful, and I can see how satisfied my child is. I'm grateful for the professional care provided by the staff, and I would highly recommend this centre to other parents.
