About Our Centre
At our center, we share the belief that every child is competent, curious, and rich in potential. We acknowledge that children have diverse social, cultural, and linguistic perspectives that contribute to their development. Our goal is to create an environment where every child feels that they belong, is a valued contributor, and has the opportunity to succeed.
​
We believe that every child's sense of belonging and connection to others is crucial in promoting their well-being. Through meaningful interactions and positive relationships with caregivers, peers, and community members, we encourage children to develop a sense of belonging and a positive self-image.
Designed to accommodate six different age groups, we provide age-appropriate activities and environments tailored to each child's developmental needs.
We have created inviting and stimulating spaces that promote creativity, problem-solving, literacy, and self-expression.
​We prioritize the health and well-being of our children, ensuring that our facility is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with age-appropriate materials and resources.
Each area is designed to encourage exploration, play, and learning, providing a safe and engaging environment for children to thrive.
At Riverside Daycare, our facility and staff work together to create a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for children where their intellectual, emotional, physical, and social needs are met. We strive to foster creativity, problem-solving, self-expression, and overall well-being, allowing every child to thrive in our programs.
Our childcare educators
We believe that families are essential partners in a child's learning and development. Our goal is to build and maintain strong partnerships with all our families as they understand their children's needs, interests, and strengths.
​
Together with families, educators share information and insights about each child's development. Diversity is valued in our families, and we strive to create an environment that welcomes and values the contributions of all families.

Nap Time
During nap time, we create a soothing environment by turning down the lights, pulling down curtains, playing calming music, providing clutter-free surroundings, and moving shelves aside to make room. Children are welcome to bring their favorite nap time blanket or stuffed toy to help them feel more comfortable and secure.
