Guardian Childcare & Education Forrest

Highly recommend this daycare for so many reasons: it's clean, the great quality of activities/toys and most importantly the educators and staff which are all so wonderful and incredibly committed to the children. Our daughter feels very comfortable here and is always excited when Monday comes around :)

I have nothing but praise for Guardian Forrest. We have been coming to the centre for a couple of years after relocating from another city. Tayla and her team have helped settle my baby girl into the centre beautifully. She has grown into such a smart, confident and caring child with a love of learning, all fostered by the love, comfort and incredible learning experiences provided by the exceptional teachers at Guardian. Every activity has a purpose, though my child is just having fun. The communication from the centre is incredible, I always know what my child has been up to each day so it’s great for us to talk about at home. Tayla and her team always make time to chat to us, and if there are any concerns we might have Tayla and the team always move quickly to help out support into place. It makes me sad that this is our last year here, I feel like the centre is another home and the educators are part of our family. Thank you to the entire team at Guardian, and Tayla for her incredible leadership for making the centre into what it is today. My little girl has had the best fun with you all. I highly recommend Guardian Forrest to anyone considering exceptional care for their children.

We have been really happy with Guardian Forrest. All the educators are such genuinely caring, lovely people. They really go out of their way to help the little ones feel at home and many of them have been around the whole time we have been there. They always have really engaging, creative and imaginative activities for the children and have created an environment which fosters adventure, fun and inquiry. It has a really nice community feel and even though we have moved further away we still send our girls there as we don't think we would find somewhere else as lovely.

This daycare is absolutely amazing, and I wouldn't have any hesitations recommending to other parents. My 5-month-old is absolutely spoiled by the Nursery staff every day. Guardian Childcare Forrest makes going back to work full-time so much easier. Knowing that my son is so well cared for gives me peace of mind and that's priceless. A huge thank you to all the staff in the Nursery and front desk; you have made the transition so seamless. It's been a wonderful experience to date!

My wife work’s at guardian and she comes home with a positive vibe from workplace.I thank the supportive team of Forrest.Good place to work.

Guardian is a fantastic centre and I wouldn't hesitate to send my child here. The centre is clean and well-maintained, which put me at ease knowing that my children are in a safe and healthy environment.What I appreciate most about this daycare is the holistic approach they take to their curriculum. They not only focus on the academic development of the children but also on their social and emotional growth. The activities and games they play are not only fun but also help build important life skills like teamwork, empathy, and problem-solving.Tayla and the team are also just wonderful people. They have a genuine passion for what they do, and it shows in the way they interact with the children. They are patient, kind, and always willing to answer any questions or concerns that I have.Overall, I would recommend this daycare to anyone looking for a fantastic childcare experience. Tayla and the team go above and beyond to create a warm, nurturing, and enriching environment for the children in their care.

My son is thriving under the care of Taylor and the whole team. They work hard to keep on top of his complex medical needs, he feels loved and welcomed and I have no doubt every kid in the centre feels the same. Could not recommend this place highly enough.

Ohh they have one UK room leader /supervisor. She was horrible, she cares about friendships and always tails her bosses rather doing the right things. Here they have culture where everyone says bad about each other so that they can look good infront of their bosses. Not a good place at all.

The benchmark for childcare in Canberra. The focus here is the children and this is evident. Staff do an outstanding job in keeping up with modern philosophies and truly love their job. You can tell that all the equipment is well thought out and caters for each child individually. For a large centre it definitely doesn't feel like it due to the open layout. If you want the best for your children you can't do better than Forrest. Oh and the food is amazing, healthy and fresh.
