About Guardian Childcare & Education Hillside

Guardian Childcare & Education Hillside, recently refurbished, is located north-west of Melbourne's CBD and a short drive and ideal for families living in or near the suburbs of Calder Park, Sydenham, Taylors Hill, and Fraser Rise. Our daycare centre is an excellent option for local families seeking high-quality childcare close to home.

Our Hillside childcare centre offers:

  • Quality learning programs such as Joy of Reading, Cooking and Sustainability
  • Engaging indoor learning spaces full of quality educational resources
  • Expansive outdoor play spaces with a sandpit, a wooden fort and veggie garden
  • On-site Chef providing fresh snacks and meals daily
  • Highly experienced Educators and degree-qualified Teachers
  • Nappies, SPF 50+ sunscreen, a hat and bed linen provided
  • Extended hours of care each weekday from 6:30am to 6:30pm

Guardian Hillside long day care centre is big on space and light with unique features including a community library, vegetable gardens, a giant horse, a wooden fort, and a range of age-specific studios and workshops where our programs come to life.

We have also launched a community garden which highlights our connections to the local area, teaches the children about sustainability practices and educates them on where their food comes from. This is bought to life with our amazing on-site cook, Kathy, who prepares delicious meals and snacks every day, often accompanying children to source ingredients from the gardens. Having been with the Centre for over 10 years, Kathy loves chatting with the children whilst she prepares meals and offers self-serving so the children can customise each dish.

Reviews for Guardian Childcare & Education Hillside

Catherine Panzera6 months ago

I am very pleased with this service and also I always say to myself how well we picked ‘The Guardian’ when looking for a centre for our children. My children are always safe, happy, clean and well engaged into the program and have built strong connections with Kinder Teachers, Educators and Peers. All the Educators and Teachers are excellent communicators, as a mum leaving your children for long periods of time throughout the day I love hearing from all the Teachers/Educators about my child/children’s day. The management team is doing an amazing job, supportive with family requests and keeping everything well organised. Thank you Guardian Team.
