Childcare

At the Child Development Centre, we have the privilege of having children in our care for many hours each day. For this reason, it is very important that we create an environment that feels as much like home as possible for every child that attends. This environment will be created by loving and nurturing adults who know them well. Our staff are trained to look for the unique personalities and needs of the children in their care. Each child is special and of equal value and they will feel loved for who they are.

Many of the children will attend the Child Development Centre for 30 - 45 hours a week. It is essential that we create a family-like atmosphere where children and their families feel relaxed and at home. You will find our staff to be highly personable and ready to serve you. Parent/Staff communication is of utmost importance and we will work hard to keep you well informed about your child's daily experiences in our care.

In addition to creating a warm, loving and nurturing environment, we also want to create a place where learning is fun! At Wind and Tide, we recognize that play is a very important part of a child's day and that children learn best through play. Wind and Tide teachers are uniquely trained in facilitating play that leads to rich learning and knowledge. We have 3 main teaching goals for all our centres. They are: socialization, academic learning and global awareness. Click to learn more about these goals.

Wind and Tide Childcare is currently offered at Broadway in Vancouver and Sunnyside in South Surrey.
