The Growing Tree Childcare

When it’s raining we bring the outside in! Camping and a bear den just go hand in hand!

I currently have one preschool spot open (2-5 years old) and will have one infant spot open July 11. I will be having meetings at the end of May and the first week of June if necessary. Please message to arrange a time or if you have any questions! 😊

All spots are currently full! Anyone wishing to be added to the waitlist an message me letting me know when the spot is required and age of your child/children 😊

All my infant spots are now filled and preschool spots are pending completed registrations being returned. I am happy to add anyone looking for spots to my waitlist for spots in the near or distant future! It’s never too early to be placed on a waitlist 😊 I will be developing a drop in program for those who need just a couple hours on a very casual basis to go to the gym, an appointment, grocery shop for example! Stay tuned!

With the changes the province is making to the online childcare system parents will now need to contact the licensed homes and centres they are interested in. I can be reached through messenger and just need your child's age at the time care is needed and a start date to put you on my waitlist. It is never too soon to be added to a list but please if you find alternate care or will no longer need care let me know so I can take you off the list :)
