Founded by members of the Earl Beatty community, we prioritize creating a safe, secure, and nurturing environment for children to grow and learn.

With over 35 years of experience, we remain committed to evolving with community needs while maintaining our core philosophy that children are competent, capable, and curious learners. Our facility operates Monday-Friday from 7:30am-6pm, offering flexible programming options including before-and-after school care and full-day coverage during breaks.
