We are licensed to care for up to 40 children a day, from 18 months to 12 years of age, and currently offer care for children ages 18 months to 5 years.<\/p><p>Each day includes a variety of fun, hands-on activities\u2014such as art, science, and sensory play\u2014planned to encourage creativity, confidence, and skill development. Our educators practice responsive teaching, observing the sparks of curiosity in each child\u2019s play and intentionally adding materials and ideas to deepen their exploration. Outdoor play is also part of the daily routine, with time spent outside in both the morning and afternoon. Inclusion Support Staff are available to ensure all children can fully participate and feel supported.<\/p><p>Our centre is organized into three distinct learning environments: the Flamingo, Chickadee, and Hummingbird classrooms.<\/p><p>\u00b7 Flamingo &amp; Chickadee Rooms: Offer a nurturing, multi-age setting for 12 children each, ages 18 months to 4 years.<\/p><p>\u00b7 Hummingbird Room: Provides a similarly supportive and engaging space for 16 children, ages 3 years and up.<\/p><p>Transitions are based on developmental readiness and enrollment flow because we value the individual journey of each student. While some children move into the Hummingbird room when they are older, others may complete their time with us in the Flamingo or Chickadee rooms. We ensure that every child\u2014regardless of their classroom assignment\u2014receives the same high-quality, responsive care and social-emotional support tailored to their specific needs.<\/p><p><strong>Our Professional Staff<\/strong><\/p><p>The team at My World of Learning is led by our Executive Director and Assistant Executive Director, supported by a Child Care Supervisor and Assistant Supervisor.
