Daycare Program

Infants

It's hard to leave your baby in the trust of others. That’s why at Maple Leaf Childcare, we strive to provide a safe, stimulating and caring environment for the babies. Infants are respected as competent individuals and teachers observe babies with care so we can understand what they know, what they like, and who they are. The classroom environment is set up in a way that babies can engage in free, safe exploration. Inspired by Dr. Pickler, we at Maple Leaf believe that a baby’s gross motor development will happen naturally without being propped. We strive to keep restraining equipment such as walkers and swings to a minimum. Infants in our care receive physical contacts such as hugging and cuddling. At all of our centers, infants are kept on their own schedule for eating, sleeping, diapering and other activities.

Toddlers

Our toddler program is designed to help children develop self-help skills and independence. The environment is set up so that children have a variety of activities that are structured and unstructured. We work with toddlers to develop fine and gross motor skills, social-emotional development, cognitive skills, and language development. We are sure to give them their space to develop their autonomy while fostering safety and security. Toddlers are growing and learning at a fast pace, we understand that routines give toddlers a sense of security. Toddlers follow a schedule and we continue to foster independence as they are ready for new experiences. When it comes time to start potty training, teachers will work closely with you and your child to meet your needs.
