Nursery (ages 12 months – 20 months)
Keeping Your Baby Engaged
We understand how precious your little one is! At this young age, we encourage them to learn about their world by providing a wealth of experiences to choose from during their day! Activities are based on each child's needs and interests. By balancing individual attention with group interaction, our well-trained staff ensures your baby is learning and experiencing new things each day while being cared for and nurtured in a safe and loving environment.
Toddlers Junior and Senior (ages 21 months – 3 years)
Encouraging Independence
This is an exciting age, where your toddlers are beginning to develop social skills, increase their vocabulary and is starting to find their independence. To help develop these skills, our childcare programs in Edmonton and Sherwood Park has a wide range of opportunities to meet the unique needs of the individual child. Children have daily opportunities to explore and learn about their environment in both indoor and outdoor settings. Our caregivers encourage the children to communicate verbally and participate in individual and group conversations. Providing these unique learning opportunities and experiences for your toddler enhances their self-concept and individuality. It ultimately gives your child a better start to a firm foundation in their preschool years.
Preschool Room (ages 3 – 4½ years)
Exploring the World Around Them
The Preschool Room offers a balance of free play together with structured individual and group activities. This gives your child a well-balanced early education. At this age, children are asking questions about the world around them; they are continuing to develop their self-concept and control. Through our dedicated staff, our program offers opportunities and experiences in areas of science, math, gross and fine motor skills, dramatic play, constructive play, as well as creative and movement activities. We recognize that each child is a unique person with an individual pattern and timing of growth and development. Our staff is sensitive to the different levels of ability and learning styles of each child, and considers these factors when developing appropriate activities for this age group.
Kinder Room (ages 4½ – Kindergarten)
Getting Ready for Kindergarten
Our well-trained staff helps prepare your child for school readiness experiences.

To facilitate the transition into Kindergarten, we aim to assist your child in:
- Developing confidence in going to school
