Philosophy
We believe that quality childcare facilitates the healthy growth and development of the "TOTAL" child.
Our quality childcare centre invites each child to explore their environment in conditions that challenge the child's curiosity, and heightens his/her awareness and self-confidence.
We believe that each child
is unique, and thus has the right to experience activities
that will ensure his/her full potential is challenged and
developed.
We believe that through play,
the child is best able to explore their world, to learn and
to grow. To this end, the staff provides a program that allows
for each child to play in situations that will facilitate
the growth of healthy physical, emotional, cognitive and communication
dimensions.
We believe that our childcare
program offers each child a balance of challenging, stimulating
experiences, and experiences that are warm and secure. We
believe that to achieve the maximum benefit form an experience,
a child must feel that they are loved, valued and cared for.
We believe that the childcare
program must blend and enhance that child's family experiences
with his/her experience in the centre. We believe that by
encouraging participation by the child's family we can offer
a quality experience for each child.
We believe that our childcare
staff are able to offer support and encouragement to families,
and that quality child care requires staff who are well-trained
and have a commitment to the child's family.
We believe that early childhood
educators are advocates for children and their families.
