Guardian Oakleigh East is absolutely incredible. We moved childcare centres for proximity and I had a really high standard because our daughter’s previous childcare was amazing. Emma & Caitlin have created such a warm and inviting atmosphere and you get the strong sense that all the staff here actually want to be here and love their work. Zohra who teaches Kinder always goes above and beyond to make sure our little one is known and loved. She is thoughtful, kind and genuinely takes time to see how we as parents are going too. The second floor is huge and being opened very soon too so space-wise it’s amazing! My daughter loves it at Guardian and we as parents feel so well looked after too. Well done Emma & Caitlin, I’m so grateful for your warmth and kindness and have nothing but high praise for you!

The staff are exceptionally caring and the kids are always happy. I couldn’t have wished for better care for my toddler. The staff under the direction of Emma the director and Caitlin her second in charge is professional and you can see the love they have for the kids. Five star rating.

Our child has been in the toddler room for three months now, and we are continually impressed with the care and education she receives. ​The transition was so smooth, and that's all thanks to the incredible educators in the toddler room. They are so warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Our daughter has formed such strong bonds with them and looks forward to meet them every day. We love seeing the photos and updates on the app, which show her happily engaged in a wide variety of activities. ​The center manager and the entire team are also fantastic. The communication is excellent, and it's clear they have a true commitment to creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for all the children. We feel completely confident and at ease leaving our daughter in their care. ​We couldn't be happier with our experience at Guardian Oakleigh East and highly recommend it to any family looking for a childcare center. A massive thank you to all the educators and staff for their hard work and dedication

About Guardian Childcare & Education Oakleigh East

Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Oakleigh East, a modern, inviting childcare centre in south-east Melbourne. Our spacious and inviting centre will quickly become your child’s home away from home.

Our centre is a place where children thrive – and families say it’s the best childcare in Oakleigh East. 

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 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 2026.

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.

We can’t wait to welcome your family to our purpose-built daycare centre. Book a tour today!
