Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Balmain Cove

Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Balmain Cove, where our vibrant and welcoming centre provides a nurturing, play-based learning environment for children aged six weeks to six years, supporting them to discover the world in a safe and secure way. Conveniently located in Rozelle, our long day care centre is ideal for families in surrounding suburbs including Balmain East, Birchgrove, Lilyfield, Annandale, Glebe, Leichhardt, Haberfield and Drummoyne. We’re proud to offer what families call the best childcare in Rozelle! 

Our To BE Me learning program helps you see your child’s learning adventure in a whole new light. Their pathway is personalised, with every milestone captured in a way that makes the link between play and learning clear and memorable. 

The New South Wales Government offers funding to provide families fee relief of up to $2174 per child aged three and above, and up to $515 per year for children aged three. This support is in addition to the Child Care Subsidy and can help to lower your out-of-pocket fees. 

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.

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.

Maria, it means the world to us to hear how much your little one has grown to love his time here.

We're so glad you’ve felt supported and welcomed, especially by Maria, who will be thrilled to hear your kind words. The daily photos are one of our favorite ways to stay connected with families, and we’re so happy they brighten your day.
