Services
Daycare (Ages 3-5)
Our preschool program serves children aged 2.5 to 5 years with structured learning in a natural environment. We focus on social-emotional development, creative expression, and foundational academic skills through nature-based activities. The program operates at our main Garibaldi Drive location with both morning and full-day options available.
School Age Care
We provide supervised care for school-aged children from grades 1-6 at two convenient locations. Our before-school program runs 7:00-8:45 AM while after-school care operates 3:00-6:00 PM daily. Activities include homework support, recreational play, and structured enrichment programs aligned with school calendars.
Nature-Based Learning
Our curriculum integrates the natural surroundings of Mount Seymour Parkway into daily learning experiences. Children engage in forest exploration, environmental awareness activities, and seasonal observation programs that promote physical development and ecological consciousness within a safe, supervised setting.
Flexible Scheduling
We accommodate temporary and permanent schedule modifications with advance notice. Our director works directly with families to adjust care arrangements while maintaining appropriate staff-to-child ratios. Changes require formal documentation but we maintain flexibility to support evolving family needs throughout the year.
Parent Communication
We maintain transparent communication through daily activity summaries posted near our communication boards. Parents receive information about meals, special activities, and developmental milestones. Our staff encourages parental involvement through regular updates and opportunities for family participation in center activities.
