Welcome to Guardian Childcare & Education Manly West

Brand New Centre - Now Open!

We can’t wait to welcome you to our brand new, purpose-built Manly West childcare centre. At Guardian Childcare & Education Manly West children aged six weeks to six years will be supported to be bold, creative and imaginative in their learning.

Our Guardian Manly West long daycare delivers high quality education and care of children as our top priority. Located in Brisbane’s eastern bayside suburb of Lota, we are ideally located for families in surrounding suburbs including Manly, Manly West and Wynnum.

Our dedicated team of degree-qualified Teachers and Educators will ensure that each child receives care tailored to their individual needs with a personalised approach to play-based learning.

Our centre will offer state-of-the-art facilities including:

  • Quality learning programs such as Joy of Reading, Cooking, Sustainability and more
  • Five spacious indoor learning spaces across two levels; full of high-quality educational resources
  • Expansive outdoor play spaces to explore and discover
  • On-site Chef providing all fresh snacks and meals each day
  • We’ll also provide nappies, SPF 50+ sunscreen and bed linen
  • Extended hours of care each weekday

Children will also have the chance to see the same familiar faces as they move on up from the nursery room, into our two-year, designed to support each child to have a smooth transition from early learning to primary school.

The Queensland Government offers funding to provide families up to 15 hours of free kindergarten a week. The funding off sets the fees for children who turn four years old by 30 June in the year before they attend primary school. This support is in addition to the Child Care Subsidy and can help to lower your out-of-pocket fees.

Brand new childcare centre in Lota, offering a warm, engaging environment for children aged six weeks to six years. Our dedicated team of degree-qualified Teachers and Educators will ensure that each child receives care tailored to their individual needs with a personalised approach to play-based learning.

Children also have the chance to see the same familiar faces as they move on up from the nursery room, into our two-year , designed to support each child to have a smooth transition from early learning to primary school.

At Guardian Childcare and Education Manly West, we recognise that each child’s learning journey is unique and plays a crucial role in shaping their development. Our approach fosters respectful relationships among children, Educators, and families, creating a strong community where every individual feels valued and included.

The enriching environment we provide is designed to stimulate curiosity and encourage exploration. Through play-based learning, children engage with hands-on experiences and interactive activities that not only enhance their cognitive skills but also nurture social and emotional growth. By supporting these fundamental connections, we aim to inspire lifelong learners who are confident and capable of facing new challenges.

Wow—thank you Jacqueline for this amazing review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear how happy you’ve been with Guardian Manly West from the very start. It’s so heartwarming to know that you’ve felt supported and informed, and that your little one is settling in so well. Our educators and leadership team (Amy, Kate & Aine will be smiling reading this!) are so passionate about creating a space where children feel safe, engaged, and genuinely cared for—so your words really mean a lot. We especially loved the part about the kitchen window—what a sweet morning ritual! It’s those little moments that make our community feel like family. Thank you again for your kind words and for being such a wonderful part of our Guardian family. We’re so glad to have you with us!
