Daycare Program

​

The Grapeview Daycare Program is designed to meet the needs of the whole child – socially, emotionally, cognitively, physically, and spiritually. Routine schedules are posted and followed in order to provide consistency throughout your child’s day.

​

Our curriculum is based on children’s self-directed exploration, discovery, play, real work, building relationships, and gaining a sense of oneself as powerful and competent. Our child-initiated curriculum emerges out of experiences in the lives of children, families, and teachers in our program.

​

Children have many opportunities to explore and experiment at their own level of knowledge. Their activities are both interesting and satisfying to them, and teachers are aware of their need for challenge and success, and for room to grow. Our teachers are trained in playing to learn which provides an understanding of how play provides the foundation of learning.

​

Our program is built within the pedagogical framework of Ontario's How Does Learning Happen?
