Guardian Childcare & Education Phillip Street

My four-year-old son has been attending the Phillip Street Guardian Childcare and Education centre for a year. He started at the centre the week we moved to Sydney from Canberra. The staff at the centre have been wonderfully welcoming and have done an amazing job of helping him adjust to all the changes. There are many reasons for the five star review - convenience of the location, quality of the resources, smooth dealings on logistics such as payment - but the main reason is the staff. The staff have a genuine affection for children and supporting their development and over the course of the year as we've dealt with the inevitable ups and downs I felt I've developed an important partnership with the staff in nurturing my son. The staff here are a really important part of my 'village'.

Our daughter has been going to the centre when she was 3.5 years old, and it has been a wonderful experience for us.. She has shown improvements in speaking and loves going to the centre. After 3 months there, she can write her own name! She used to have trouble in sitting down and reading books, now she loves reading books! Great outdoor area and most importantly the educators are wonderful, very caring and loving. When our daughter was sick, Helene the centre manager called & checked on us which we really appreciate. I also love the meals are cooked fresh everyday in their own kitchen. Centre is clean, tidy and has great resources. They also take the children out to the state library, botanical garden, martin place and involve families in the children learning experience. I could go on continue writing great things about The Pavilion, I am very glad that our daughter can find a second home while mum and dad are working.. Nothing makes parents more relief than seeing her child is happy and safe, thank you Helene Erin Lisa Lili Lizzy and The Pavilion team in making that happen :)
