Welcome to my family dayhome. This Dayhome is run privately however, I have 2 years experience as an Approved & Accredited Dayhome through Alberta Government and I was registered with an Agency. Located in Southwood, SW, Calgary and minutes from Anderson Train station. Established since 2013. I am offering quality child care for children aged Newborn to 8 years. All children are under direct supervision at all times and are vaccinated.

The following curriculum is provided which gives combined opportunities to experience Reggio-inspired learning (nature as third teacher, loose parts, an emphasis on documenting children's thoughts through photographs, transcripts of children’s thoughts and explanations, visual representations: drawings, sculptures, all designed to show the child’s learning process), Waldorf (rhythm and routine, journaling, stories which helps children get in touch with their sense of wonder and magic) as well as play-based (provides learning experiences that foster exploration, problem solving, discovery and dramatisation, language acquisition, literacy, numeracy, and social, physical, and emotional skills).

This Dayhome offers Full Time, Part Time, Half Day, Drop-In, Before & after school care and Summer Care. Very reasonable rates. Transportation available. I follow and use positive child guidance and I have an open door policy.
