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.

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.

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.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Guardian Mount Eliza! The Toddler 1 team is incredibly consistent, caring, and attentive, which has made such a difference in our child’s development and sense of security. The educators truly take the time to get to know each child, and it shows in the way they support their individual needs and celebrate their milestones. We always feel welcomed and well-informed, and it’s clear the centre puts a lot of thought into creating a nurturing and stimulating environment. Our child is thriving, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and support we receive here. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a centre that genuinely partners with families and puts children first!
Thank you Mary! We’re so happy to hear that you’ve had such a great experience with us at our centre! The Toddler team will be absolutely chuffed to know their care and dedication are making a real difference for your little one. It means the world to us that you feel welcomed, supported, and part of our community. We love getting to know each child and their family—it’s what makes our days so special! Thanks again for your kind words and for recommending us. We’re so lucky to have you with us and can’t wait to keep watching your child grow and shine!

Both my children have been going here for years and we could not be happier. To see my littlest have the same educators now my eldest had is very special and very rare, and something you find in only amazing daycare centres. it feels like family and I feel very lucky!
It warms our hearts to know that both your children have been part of our little community over the years. Watching your eldest grow and now seeing your littlest in the same caring hands is incredibly special for us too—it’s families like yours that make what we do so meaningful. The bond we’ve built with your family is something we cherish deeply, and we feel just as lucky to have you with us. Thank you for trusting us and for being such a valued part of our Guardian family.
