FACT
We encourage children to be active learners who explore the world through their body and mind.
Infant Room 3mths – 18mths
In our Infant Room our children are greeted daily with nurturing teachers in an environment that enriches the development of each child. The routine in the infant room is less structured and geared to the individual child. Teachers in the classroom ensure that each infant is following their own personalized schedules for eating, sleeping and exploring. Infants will take part through a variety of sensory and movement experiences.
FACT
We at the Creative Child Learning Centre feel that music is good for the body, mind and soul as it allows children to be creative, build connections and stimulate the brain as they actively explore musical instruments and sound.
Toddler Room 18mths – 30mths
In our Toddler Room children are free to explore their interests in a stimulating environment which promotes social, emotional, cognitive and physical development. Toddlers are engaged in a variety of indoor as well as outdoor activities. Our outdoor playground is enclosed and designed for our growing toddlers. Teachers in the toddler room focus on the child’s interests as they provide activities and learning materials which foster their curiosity.

Preschool Room 30mths – 44mths
Our Preschool Rooms provide an open environment where children are able to gain independence through play and learning to problem solve. Teachers encourage the children with self-help skills such as toileting, eating and dressing. Preschoolers are able to explore a variety of materials that promote fine motor, gross motor and cognitive development. We follow the emergent curriculum, which is based on the child’s interests. Children learn through play, relationships, discovery and exploration.
