What are the parent participation requirements for this program?
Parent Participation Programs are different than other daycares or preschools, because our parents are directly involved.
Parents have the opportunity to be with their child once each month in the classroom during their mandatory volunteering shifts. Parents participate in the administration of their child’s daycare by working on parent subcommittees that support the program operation, such as helping with registration and enrolment; supporting HR, recruitment and retention; managing parent volunteer schedules; helping with making playdough or filing art work; updating classroom calendars; or managing our parent social media.
Like all parent participation programs, we offer free parenting education workshops throughout the year.
Visit our fees and volunteering requirements page to learn about the specific volunteering requirements.
I would like to have a tour of this program.
Unfortunately, due to the disruption tours bring to the classroom, we do not offer tours to families.
Once a family from our waitlist has accepted a space and has completed their registration paperwork, the program manager will contact the family to schedule 2-3 classroom visits prior to beginning gradual entry.
