A newly refurbished and modern, light-filled centre, we’re proud to provide the best local childcare in Mentone, where every child is supported to thrive.
Proud winner of the Family Choice Award 2025. As determined by our existing families rating their experience of our Centre via Family Satisfaction Survey and independent Google Reviews.
To BE Me is Guardian’s exclusive learning program – a game changer that marks a new era in early learning. It reimagines early education, giving families clear insights into how play connects to learning and development.
The Victorian Government offers funding to provide families up to 15 hours of Free Kindergarten a week, in addition to the Childcare Subsidy. The funding offsets the fees for three and four-year-old children that are part of the centre’s long day care Kindergarten program. Families will save up to $2,101 a year for children aged three-years-old and above in eligible long day cares in 2025.
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.
Safety and wellbeing are our highest priority, giving families peace of mind in the safe childcare we provide.
