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.

About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

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.

Several good educators left and so many strange faces of casual educators came in since the change of management team.

I started my son in a different daycare and after an extremely rough first few days, I pulled him out and put him into Guardian, which had impressed me during a tour earlier in the year. Moving him to Guardian was the best decision Ive ever made. Not only is the communication between management/staff/parents very efficient and clear, but the carers have gone above and beyond to help my baby feel comfortable, cared for, supported and happy. Thank you Guardian for supporting my son!

Response from the owner 03 Apr 2025

It's wonderful to know that our efficient and clear communication, along with the dedication of our educators, has made such a positive impact. We're thrilled that your son feels comfortable, cared for, supported, and happy with us. Your kind words mean the world to our team. If there's anything more we can do to support you and your son, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you again for sharing your positive experience!
