Friends Forever Childcare Centre

standing of the world. Friends Forever Staff provide a safe environment that includes appropriate role modeling and positive reinforcement. We recognize that each child is unique; not one is the same. All children develop differently and at different stages from one another. Because of this, our programs are flexible and adaptable to meet the needs of the children here. Teaching children independence and to build their self-esteem is important to their development. The teacher will work to have the children feel like they can do anything and only need the assistance from the teachers when needed. Our Centre provides opportunities for both structured and non-structured activities which are appropriate to the needs and ages of the children. Children will explore music and movement, dramatic play, stories, arts and crafts, self-care and much more. Our goal is develop a home-like environment to ease the transition for all children. Through children’s natural curiosity to explore their environment, we create a setting that first engages and then stimulates physical, social, emotional and cognitive development with a goal to maximizing their potential.
