Midland Child Care Centre

Located in Scarborough, just south of Steeles Avenue at 4220 Midland Avenue, we are a non-profit learning centre offering caring support for children ages 18 months to 4 years. Our centre is operated by the Chung Wah Tao Tak Tong, a non-profit Canadian charity founded in 1990. We are proud to be a welcoming and inclusive environment that values ethnic and cultural diversity.

Our Philosophy

At Midland Child Care Centre, our philosophy is built on the principles of child-led learning, where we believe that children who succeed at learning gain valuable self-confidence, an important stepping stone to future success, moral development, and respect for others. We structure our programs to ensure that all of our children share in this experience, while also providing each child the opportunity to explore their unique interests.

Our Programs

We offer stimulating, educational, and creative child care programs for children 1 to 4 years old, with care provided in three languages: English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. Children are separated by age into one of four classrooms, staffed by certified Registered Early Childhood Educators (RECEs) and Early Childhood Assistants (ECAs). Our programs, based on Ontario provincial standards and recognized best practices, include:

• Ontario's Pedagogy for Early Years
• Ontario Early Years Framework
• Ontario Early Learning Framework
