Programs Available at this Centre

The Divine Infant Early Learning & Child Care Centre provides high quality licensed care for children 18-months to 12 years of age in a stimulating environment so they can learn, grow and thrive. Our programs are based upon an evidence-based curriculum designed to help children reach their full potential.  Our qualified early childhood educators facilitate play experiences that will help your child develop foundational skills.  All of our centres have access to outdoor spaces and activities.

Early Learning & Care Programs

Early Learning and Care programs offered at this location provide children from 18-months to 4-years of age with the support they need to make a seamless transition to full-day kindergarten.

Family Day programs use the HighScope curriculum, which concentrates on “active participatory learning.” The central belief of HighScope is that children construct their own learning by “doing” and by working with objects, people and ideas with a knowledgeable educator. Our Registered Early Childhood Educators (RECE) and Assistant Teachers receive ongoing training in this evidence-based curriculum.

Children in our centres enjoy a warm and caring environment, with access to a range of age-appropriate learning activities.

Before & After School Programs

Family Day’s Before & After School Programs offer a positive and safe environment that nurtures children socially, emotionally, intellectually, and physically.  This environment encourages the development of happy, self-motivated, and independent children. Our Educators are committed to providing stimulating and creative programs, which are flexible and adapted to children’s needs.

  • We offer before and after school child care for children aged 4 to 6 in Full Day Kindergarten. This program is delivered in partnership with the school board.
  • Our Before & After School program designed for children aged 6 to 12 provides a safe and stimulating before- and after-school experience.
