🎨 Group Child Care Program
School-readiness through play-based learning. Children build literacy foundations, mathematical thinking, creative expression, and the confidence they need to thrive in kindergarten.
About This Program
From 30 months (2½ years) through to school age, children begin to emerge as learners with opinions, questions, and ideas. They're ready to explore the world with purpose. Our preschool program at 9270 163A St meets them exactly where they are.
We use a play-based approach guided by BC's Early Learning Framework. Every activity — whether it's building with blocks, painting, gardening, or dramatic play — is purposefully designed to support school readiness. By the time children leave us for kindergarten, they know how to sit with a group, follow routines, use scissors, write their name, count with understanding, and most importantly: they love learning.
For the longer story on what BC's Early Learning Framework looks like in practice and how we build kindergarten readiness day by day, read our essay Preschool to kindergarten: how we build K-readiness →

Kindergarten Transition
In your child's final months with us, we offer a kindergarten readiness review — sharing observations on literacy, numeracy, social skills, and any areas to watch. We want your child to walk into K confident, curious, and known.
