Our day homes offer quality child care to children ages infants to 12 years. The diverse and multi-age groups in our day homes offer unique opportunities and experiences in which children grow, learn and support one another. Our day home educators ensure the well-being of all children in their care by following established health and safety practices; children’s development is supported through exercising appropriate learning environments and family members are treated as partners in raising healthy children. Our day home educators are knowledgeable of early childhood development and maintain the Alberta Family Day Home Licensing Standards; as well as agency policies and procedures which certifies safe and quality child care.
