Toddler Childcare
Our toddler program provides age-appropriate care with structured routines and play-based learning. Certified educators maintain 1:5 staff ratios to ensure individual attention while following Ministry of Education guidelines. The program supports developmental milestones through sensory activities, social interaction, and motor skill development.
Play-Based Curriculum
Our emergent curriculum follows the 'How Does Learning Happen' framework focusing on Belonging, Well-Being, Engagement, and Expression. Children explore interests through hands-on activities that develop problem-solving skills, creativity, and communication while aligning with Halton Board of Education standards.
