For Families

Chil­dren ben­e­fit in many ways from being cared for in a car­ing home environment. 

These includes:

• A home-based set­ting that pro­vides a famil­iar, safe and secure learn­ing environment.
• Small group envi­ron­ment facil­i­tates strong bonds and pro­motes effec­tive ear­ly learn­ing and social development. 
• The offer of care dur­ing stan­dard hours, evenings, before/​after school, dur­ing school hol­i­days and in some cas­es, overnight and weekends.
• Edu­ca­tion and care for chil­dren from babies to school age; offer­ing the pos­si­bil­i­ty for sib­lings to be cared for togeth­er, all in one location.
• Expe­ri­ences which reflect the diver­si­ty of our community.
