Philosophy
Children are equipped with curiosity and a desire to investigate their world. We as child care professionals capitalize on these qualities and develop as many creative opportunities to challenge the child's curiosity and stimulate their interests.
We aim at setting a stimulating "stage" for the children to safely play, discover, learn and grow. Our child care program focuses on a creative environment as well as a carefully thought out program with a developmentlly appropriate variety.
Each child is considered as an individual and we aim at understanding the child's specific needs to facilitate growth and develpoment socially, physically, emotionally and intellectually.

Goals
- To provide a “quality” and affordable service to meet the needs of our rural community
- To offer a program which facilitates children to grow and develop physically, emotionally, socially and intellectually. Each child is accepted and respected as a unique individual.
- To keep lines of communication open with our children’s prents and keep the families directly involved on their child’s care. We aim to facilitate a smooth transition from home to Day Care.
- We aim to spend one on one time with each child daily to allow the recognition and acceptance of the child as a valued individual, not only a member of a group.
- To direct and discipline the children in a firm manner while maintaining the child’s self esteem. We have the children directly involved in their own discipline to help develop problem solving skills and responsibility for their own actions.
- To assure a healthy and safe environment for all the children at all times. Any injuries or incidents are documented and shared with parents, daily. Our inventory and equipment are checked through, daily.
- Have fun with the children and value what children have to offer. Our Day Care’s motto is “we care about children”
- Meet the children’s daily nutritional needs in co-operation with the parents.
- We continue to evaluate all aspects of our program to continue to offer our reputable “quality” and affordable service to meet the needs of the community.
- To be trained in Early Childhood Education.
