Guardian Childcare & Education Lilyfield Centre overview

Website & socials
Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Lilyfield

At Guardian Childcare & Education Lilyfield, highly qualified and committed teachers and educators deliver leading play-based care and educational programs. Our centre takes a personalised approach to nurture healthy social, cognitive and emotional development. The centre values family connection, and builds trusting relationships to ensure tailored care and learning for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years.

Our recently reburbished, modern and light filled interior is warm, comfortable and welcoming, with a range of age-specific spaces for play and creativity. The rooms are well-resourced to cater to different learning styles and activities to ensure every child’s interests and needs are met. They can flex their imaginations as they make new discoveries through their daily explorations.

Outside, there are three incredible areas featuring native trees, bamboo and vegetable gardens, green hills to clamour over, a rock climbing wall, a water pump and inviting alfresco dining. As they play in the outdoors alongside their peers, the children work on their social skills as well as their physical development.

With public transport, including the light rail, close by, the centre is easy to access for parents on the morning commute. 

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. Ask for more details when you tour the centre.

Programs

The centre programs revolve around the interests and skills of the children. The educators take a personalised approach to get to know each child, their needs and what interests them most. They then tailor the program to match.

With a mix of structured and unstructured play, the educators embed important foundational learning and skills throughout the day. What may seem like fun and play to the children or even to an outside observer, the educators carefully plan activities with real learning benefits. Whether it’s counting the chairs to put out at lunch or practising social skills through dress up play, the children are always growing, learning and developing.

Community is also a strong focus in the program. The educators make the most of their community connections to plan engaging incursions and excursions for the children to enjoy. This enhances their sense of belonging as they develop an understanding of the world around them.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and generous review Sofia. We are truly touched by your kind words and incredibly grateful that you chose us for your little one’s early learning journey. We understand how daunting it can be to find the right care, especially as a parent navigating long waitlists and the many unknowns of early childhood education. It means the world to us that we’ve been able to provide a space where you feel supported, reassured, and confident. Your reflections on our team, the learning environment, and the daily communication really affirm the values we hold close—creating a nurturing, joyful, and transparent space for both children and their families. We’re especially delighted to hear that the bonds formed with our educators have made transitions easier and more comforting for both you and your child. Thank you again for your trust and for calling us a “hidden gem”—we’re so glad that what started as a second choice has become a place you now wholeheartedly recommend. It’s families like yours that make our community so special.
