A wide variety of programs are offered to children from prenatal through the early years of 0-6 and into the 6-12 year range. The main goal in all of our programs is to provide a safe nurturing environment where children can explore, play, interact and socialize with others. Developmentally appropriate activities are provided for the children to enhance their development in all domains (cognitive, physical, social-emotional, etc.). As part of our commitment to the community we serve, we offer a variety of social recreational and educational activities for all children to enjoy. All of our programs and services build individual and community assets. The after school drop-ins provide economical options for parents needing child care and for those children 6-12 needing a more structured environment we offer our Kids World School Aged Child Care Program.

We also offer support to children 4 years and up who have been sexually abused or displaying behaviours of sexual abuse.
