Our center is a fully Licensed Group Child Care serving children from Birth to Three Years. We specialize in small-group settings such as Infant/Toddler Program (Birth to 36 months): Licensed capacity for 12 children.

We operate as a Child Development Center, not just a daycare. Our core philosophy is Playing to Learn, an emergent curriculum that ensures we address the developmental needs of children. It focuses on play-based activities to naturally foster physical, cognitive, social, and emotional growth.

We are open five days a week, from Monday to Friday, providing full-time care. Our operating hours are 7:30 AM – 5:30 PM.

Our enrollment process does not operate strictly on a “first come, first serve” basis. Priority is often given to families seeking age balance and those who align with our community goals.

Yes. As a fully Licensed Child Care West Vancouver facility, families automatically receive the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative (CCFRI) discount. Additionally, eligible families can apply for the Affordable Child Care Benefit (ACCB) to further reduce monthly fees.

We practice Positive Guidance, which fosters a respectful environment and self- regulation. We believe discipline is something we do for the child, not to the child, by using positive reinforcement, modeling social skills, and setting clear, age-appropriate expectations.

The safety of our children is paramount. We maintain a strict Nut Aware Zone policy and require parents to disclose all allergies and intolerances upon enrollment. We work closely with families to ensure all food and snacks brought in are safe for the entire group.
