This feels clumsy... (short)

Hi!

This sentence feels clumsy, but I am not sure. Please take a look!

I will do everything that the guardian must do.


How can I re-phrase it?

Thanks!

Unless you are talking about a named specific guardian, then use the indefinite article. I will do everything that a guardian must do. I will do everything that a guardian is required to do.
