Fan-Tastic Scholars Child Learning Centre

f children and families has evolved over time and is influenced by experience, collaboration with families and our community partners. We understand that all families are different and that a child’s most important teachers are their parents, who want what is best for their children and who know them best. A child’s social and emotional growth are the primary focus of our trained and caring teams. These are part of the key foundational skills for success in later life. Environments that provide for role modelling and full adult engagement in play are some of the ways we contribute to the child’s social and emotional well being. As proud providers of a high quality licensed child care program in Hamilton, we actively participate in ongoing quality initiative programs within our child care community. Our child care centres are fully licensed by the Ministry of Education and we are regulated under the Child Care and Early Years Act, 2014. Evidence from diverse fields of study tells us that early year’s programs play an important role in supporting children’s learning development, health and well-being. Our Registered Early Childcare Educators work with the Ministry of Education’s How Does Learning Happen? (HDLH) framework; Ontario’s Pedagogy for the Early Years as a professional learning resource. At the core of this framework are relationships and this structure helps guide those working with young children and families. The foundations of HDLH include; Belonging, Well-Being, Engagement and Expression.
