About Us

Kids Town Daycare Incorporated believes children learn through play. Play is the cornerstone where children have the opportunity to actively explore and learn through materials and their environment. Play facilitates the development of the whole child including, social, emotional, physical, cognitive and creative abilities. In order for children’s play to be meaningful, the experiences need to reflect each child’s skills and needs. The Centre is committed to offering a high quality, child centered program that provides for children’s success in learning. Kids Town Daycare strives to provide quality care for all children, regardless of race, ethnicity, financial situations, gender and family structure. All children are entitled to the same level of service, care and hours of operation. The program involves children, parents, teachers working together in an anti-bias and integrated environment. This teamwork promotes children’s abilities to resolve conflicts, understand mutual respect, gain independence and build self-esteem. These abilities are also encouraged by teachers modeling and encouraging socially acceptable behaviour where children are supported to self-regulate and develop positive relationships. The children’s environment is structured with routines and transitions in order to provide consistency and security. This flexibility facilitates decision making and free choice which is incorporated in the program on a daily basis. The teacher’s role in the program is to assist, support and guide the children while maintaining a safe, stimulating, nurturing and culturally diverse environment. These goals are accomplished by the teacher’s training, knowledge and experience in observing, gathering resources and sharing information with parents and co-workers. Teachers then use this information to plan and implement a program and environment that is age appropriate, interesting and meets both individual and group needs. As a Kids Town Daycare, families, teachers and management maintain open and ongoing communication to ensure the child’s developmental needs are met. It is important that families are familiar with the centres By-laws and contribute to the ongoing stability of the day care centre. Parents are encouraged to share information with teachers, participate in curriculum and volunteer in the program as needed.
