My son attending this kinder from more than two years. The staff is very supportive and friendly. I was worried before to send him to the childcare but since he joined Guardian we as a parents are very much happy that we choose Guardian as a childcare for our sons care. He is very much happy as well. The educators and the staff is very friendly and always happy to help in any circumstances you need. Different activities they have for the kids to get them more active whole day and I am always happy to see the pictures they share about the kids activities everyday. I highly recommend this childcare as a care for children. A big thanks to the educators who treat the children with the same responsibility as we expect. Thank you to the all Guardian team for this best practice.
Response from the ownerabout 1 month agoThank you Rajjo! It truly means a lot to us to hear how happy you and your son have been over the past two years at Guardian. We know how big of a step it is to send your child to childcare, and we’re so glad we could help make that transition a positive and reassuring one for your family. It’s wonderful to hear that your son is enjoying his time with us and that you’re loving the daily updates and photos—we love sharing those special moments with you! Our educators are so passionate about what they do, and your kind words are such a lovely reminder of why we do it. Thank you for your trust, your support, and for being such an important part of our Guardian family.
