About Us
Our childcare centre started operations almost four decades ago in the early 1980’s and has since been providing best childcare, infant day care, kindergarten and preschool services to thousands of parents. We are one of the oldest and most affordable childcare facilities in Downtown Calgary.
Since May 2020, our Downtown centre has been newly renovated as per the Montessori curriculum and programmes offered. We encourage outdoor and indoor learning with beautiful spaces that inspire children every day. The Montessori method believes that children enjoy hands-on learning. We create a tactile, fun-filled and healthy environment that allows our children to discover, learn and explore. Our childcare provides an engaging early child-care education programme in Downtown Calgary that is built upon the classical methods formulated and recommended by Maria Montessori. Our school puts children on a path that embraces creativity, builds self-awareness and helps them develop the academic skills, physical tools, and personal confidence necessary for lifelong success.
Research studies like the “Marshmallow” study conducted by Mischel, Ebbesen and Zeiss at Stanford have documented the importance of early education in children’s physical and mental development. They believe early years are the best time for the neurological and figurative development of the mind.
We recognize our profound responsibility to make the most of these formative years. Our trained guides and child-care staff instill a love for learning that will serve your children for the rest of their lives.
