What to Expect

Starting child care is a big step—for you and your child! Here’s a simple guide to help you understand what happens from the moment you join our waitlist to your first day in care.

Step 1:

Registration & Waitlist

To get started, please add your child’s name to our waitlist! Our waitlist ensures a fair and organized process for families interested in joining our programs. You can add your child at any time, and we encourage you to keep your contact information up to date so we can reach you when a space becomes available.

There’s no obligation to accept a spot when it’s offered, but providing a timely response helps us plan and support all families waiting for care.

If you’re unsure whether or not you’re interested in a day home or our child care centre, please visit our programs, or contact us!

Step 2:

When a Space Becomes Available

When a space opens up, our team will contact you directly by phone or email.
You’ll receive details about the program, start date, and next steps.

We’ll schedule a meeting or tour (if you haven’t had one yet) so you can see the space, meet educators, and ask questions!

If you accept the spot, we’ll provide registration forms and orientation details.

Step 3:

Preparing for Your First Day

Before your child’s first day, you’ll receive a welcome package with everything you need to know:

  • What to bring (change of clothes, outdoor gear, lunch, etc.)
  • Daily routines and communication methods
  • Policies around illness, absences, and holidays
  • Our gradual entry process to help your child transition comfortably into care

Step 4:

Stay Connected

We value strong relationships with families. You’ll receive regular updates from educators and have opportunities to discuss your child’s progress, interests, and development. Newsletters and notices keep you informed about events and centre updates. You’re always welcome to reach out with questions or feedback.
