About Us
We are a non-profit licensed day care center for children ages 15 months through five years of age. Our staff is experienced in early childhood education and qualified through accredited courses. Parents and family members are actively involved in their child's care as volunteers in classroom activities, field trips and fundraising projects.
All programs are designed to promote:
- creativity
- imagination
- independence
- self-esteem
- respect for the rights of others
Our doors are open anytime if you would like to drop in and see what we're about. We are here to answer any questions you may have.
Having childcare you can trust greatly relieves the burden for parents who don't have the luxury of being home with their children on a daily basis.
We work as closely as possible with parents and welcome discussions of any problems that may arise.
