Our Daycare Centre is designed to create an environment of trust, where each child feels safe and secure both physically and emotionally. The Centre is a learning place where social and intellectual growth occur as each child experiences him or herself in relationship to others and the environment, through play.
In a safe and trusting environment each child will learn to recognize, respect and support the rights of others. Each child has the right to move at his or her own pace and to develop at an individual rate.
By being provided with an atmosphere which is friendly, supportive, accepting and positive, each child will have the freedom to make decisions and choices, thus developing self-confidence and self-reliance.
We believe that daily doses of hugs, humor and smiles, together with continuing individual attention, will keep our Centre a safe and friendly place.
