Licensed Child Care Service
Family Day Homes
Offering quality in-home child-care for children birth to 12 years since 1982.
Are you looking for quality childcare?
If your children are between the ages of 0 and 12 years, and you are looking for childcare in a home setting, then we encourage you to contact us. In addition to matching your family with a Family Day Home (FDH) Educator, we can help you access a government subsidy to help with costs if you qualify.
Our FDH Educators will work with you to do our best to meet your various needs such as flexible drop off times and/or locations. Your FDH Educator will strive to enhance the social, physical, intellectual, and emotional development of your child. Our carefully chosen FDH Educators work with the guidance of a FDH Consultant. Every FDH Educator has had a criminal record check (including vulnerable sector check), an Intervention check, and has completed a First Aid Course. Each home has been carefully inspected to ensure safety needs are met. The FDH Consultant visits the home frequently to ensure that the Provincial FDH Standards are maintained giving you peace of mind while you are away from your child.
If you are looking to provide quality childcare and earn an income while staying at home, we can help you too! We will provide you with guidance as you grow to understand the diverse needs of children and families through workshops and resources. We will support you in understanding the Provincial FDH standards through monitoring visits and training opportunities. You can network with other FDH Educators in our FDH Program, so you are never really alone!
