Programs

Curriculum

The Child Care follows a play-based curriculum, children learn through play experiences. Children participate in the planning process, often choosing activities to be implemented in their rooms. Teachers plan according to the development levels of the children in their care based on their observations of the children. Areas planned for include: Fine Motor (arts & crafts), Science, Sensory, Dramatic Play, Cognitive and Gross Motor (outdoor & indoor active play).

Inclusion

The John Wanless Child Care Program believes each child is unique. We recognize individual abilities and encourage children to grow and develop at their own pace through play and learning in each of our rooms. We believe in forming positive relationships with all our families so that we work and support each other throughout each child's development.
