We offer warm and friendly surroundings so that every child feels encouraged and supported in their endeavours. We are committed to meeting the unique needs of each child within the whole group in a manner that is age appropriate.

We recognize the fact that parents are the most important aspect of the child-rearing experience and welcome you to visit and to take a tour of our programs during regular business hours.
Program Offerings
Children learn through interaction, play, and socializing. First and foremost, we recognize that kids should be allowed to be kids: guided by an adult who is nurturing, giving, and caring, a child will flourish in a positive, clean, and friendly environment. At Kidz Junction we believe that every child deserves to be happy and satisfied with their childcare situation. Children should learn, laugh, play, and discover a truly fulfilling day, every day. We provide plenty of opportunities for crafts, games, songs, storytelling, and much more.
In developing the core programs for Kidz Junction, a number of very important principles regarding children were taken into account:
- Children are individuals in their own right.
- Children are eager, active, and curious.
- Children are more at ease if allowed to learn at their own pace.
- Children need as much freedom as their environment can permit.
- Children respond more readily to positive suggestions and statements rather than commands.
- Children need to know what behaviour is not acceptable because it is unsafe or harmful to themselves or others.
- Children need to know that adults are there to help them in stressful times as well as to encourage and support them in new situations.
Our Vision
Kidz Junction Day Care and Out of School provides a positive, structured place for your child to learn and grow. Our goals include flexible programs that value the individual and diverse needs of your family as well as observing the respect and dignity of every child. We provide a vibrant, play-based program that encourages children to be innovative and to cultivate the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed for success both at school and in life. The most important thing we can impart to the children who attend Kidz Junction is that they are all amazing in their own way, a fact that will build their confidence and help them to achieve success no matter which path they choose later down the road.
