Choosing a child care centre that meets the unique needs of your child and your family is a tremendous responsibility. It is important that you agree with the philosophies and policies as defined in our Centre Parent Handbook, as these are the principles on which the program and interactions with your child and family will be based. It is also very important that you are comfortable with the environment and Educators who will be responsible for your child's well-being, security, and early childhood learning during his/her attendance at the centre.

MISSION STATEMENT

PHILOSOPHY & GOALS

We see children as unique individuals who have unique needs. We will provide a variety of activities that meet their interests while helping them learn and grow into well rounded individuals. Love, respect, encouragement and a sense of belonging are important to a child's overall development. We will providea safe and welcoming environment so that your child will have coonfidence and build self-esteem while exploring, expressing, discovering and learning in our centre. Positive guidance is our strategy for helping the children make good decisions as opposed to not so good ones. We believe in giving the children an opportunity to think about their behaviour and then to be able to talk to a staff member In using positive guidance, the children are involved in their own dicipline. We also have implemented a system of friendly and unfriendly behaviours instead of a list of rules.
