We opened in 1995 and have been providing high quality programming and child care for Nova Scotian families for over 28 years now.
Are you wondering about our curriculum and approach? It is that of Capable, Confident and Curious Children.
Are you wondering about our actual centre itself? We have 6 classrooms and 2 playgrounds full of fun, laughter and learning.
You can see a good amount of it in action via our Instagram.
We also have a Facebook page and a parent Facebook group once families join the community.

Perhaps you are wondering about costs: That is complicated. The provincial government, as of January 1st/2022, introduced fee reductions based on children’s ages. So we have our fee, $43 / day AND off of this is the fee reduction. Then for SOME families, if they also have a child care subsidy from the NS government, then that is applied as well. So as you can see, to tell you exactly what you will be paying depends on your child’s age and whether you have a subsidy or not. Subsidy information and application.
We are currently full but we are have opened our waiting lists at this time:
How Our Wait List Works: The Star System
Once you are on our list, you need to keep in touch with us to retain your status and increase your placement on the list. The most frequent you can contact us is once a week. This can either be via email or via telephone; each time, receives a star. This saves us time when we go to fill a space as we know who is interested and we have already built a relationship with the family through phone calls or email chats. When we go to our list to offer the space, we look to see how many stars each family has and the one with more stars we call. This has been our system for many, many years and it works for us.
