Edmonton Daycare Programs

• Infant (0 – 19 Months)

This is the most delicate stage in the child development, both physically and mentally. Therefore, it is important that very close attention is provided to the kids of this age group. To achieve this appropriate staff to children ratio is required during this period. This is also a fast growth phase, so the children in this group have very different needs. Some can walk, some can only stand, some babies sit and there are some who enjoy just lying on their back. But one thing is common thing among all the babies and that is their sense of observation. They all are keen observers of their surroundings. And if their surrounding is nourishing, they benefit from it. Our staff provides special attention to the interests and likes of children and design their daily routine based on their observations. They provide excellent nurturing environment to infants that helps them keeping calm, comfortable and well nourished.

• Toddler (20 – 36 Months)

Toddlers are really quick learners, which is aided by their sharp memories and ability to associate. They are interested in games that can be played at individual level or with a partner. They also like to sing and dance. At this stage children also show keen interest in books and their environment. Their sensory abilities are fast developing and they are very curious.
