Bienvenue aux programmes d’apprentissage des jeunes enfants et aux programmes de services de garde.
Les programmes d’apprentissage des jeunes enfants et les programmes de garde proposent un environnement favorisant le développement optimal de l'enfant en pleine croissance. Par le biais de programmes axés sur l'apprentissage par le jeu et sous la supervision d'éducatrices diplômées, l'enfant expérimente des situations favorisant un développement sain au cours des premières années de sa vie:
- Curiosité, initiative et indépendance ;
- Estime de soi et capacité de prise de décisions ;
- Interaction sociale et respect des autres ;
- Activités physiques développant les principales habiletés motrices ;
- Aptitudes à communiquer ;
- Développement des habiletés motrices fines.
La supervision des enfants par des éducatrices comptant des années d’expérience constitue un atout important :
- Maintien du ratio personnel-enfant ;
- Programmes d'enfance en difficulté ;
- Service de garde à temps plein ou à temps partiel ;
- Service de garde pour les nourrissons dans certaines localisations ;
- Possibilité de subventions.
Tous les programmes de services de garde en établissements sont autorisés en conformité avec la Loi sur les garderies de l'Ontario.
