We are an Eco-friendly Child Care that provides care for children 18 months to 12 years of age. Our centre is open from 6:30am-6:00pm Monday to Friday.

The Toddler Program strives to educate children through play. The Toddlers are aged 18 months to 2 ½ years. The teachers create a fun environment to teach them everyday skills and begin the toilet-training procedures to prepare them for the Preschool classroom. The children will learn about colours, shapes, numbers, alphabet, and relationships amongst other children and adult figures.

The Preschool Program strives to educate children through play. The Preschoolers are aged 2 ½ years to 5. The teachers incorporate a school based program to prepare the children for their journey through school. The children will learn letter recognition, printing letters, problem solving, and how to build relationships amongst other children and adult figures.

The Before and After School program allows for children to attend as parents need to be at work early in the morning and late in the evening. The children will have the opportunity to socialize with other children while participating in academic activities.

Summer Camp will be offered for the months of July and August. There will be two age groups of children ages 4 -7 and 8-11. There will be guest speakers coming into the centre and outings every week. There will be weekly themes and planned activities will be based on these themes.
