The playroom is dedicated to providing a safe learning environment for young children(ages 12 weeks to 6 years).  Our trained early childhood educators plan activities designed to help children have fun while learning.

 

Our child-centred environment encourages emotional, physical, social and cognitive development of children.  WFP’s early childhood educators provide caring support to children and their families.

 

Our philosophy is to provide a secure and creative environment which nurtures individual and family learning.

 

The Playroom also has access to an outdoor space.  The side yard offers children opportunities to make discoveries and connections to nature.  The garden, sandboxes and greenspace allow children to play, learn, grown and of course get dirty.

Parents remain on site and are welcome to stay and play or go to the drop-in for a cup of coffee, check your email on the computers or participate in one of our workshops or programs.
