Kids' Campus Child Care Centre is committed to providing the highest possible quality of childcare services to the parents and children of the Region of Durham.
Our educators interact with and guides your child through a variety of individual and group activities aimed at developing social, physical, emotional and cognitive skills. The program provides daily activities used in innovative ways. Individualizing programming allows your child to develop to their own potential.
Our highly qualified and motivated staff work together to create a supportive environment in which your child can interact and communicate in a positive way to achieve skills and develop his/her self-esteem, independence, self-regulation and respect for himself/herself and others.
Kids' Campus Child Care Centre promotes healthy nutrition and the well-being of children in a safe inclusive environment. Children are viewed as being competent, capable, curious and rich in potential. The children are encouraged to learn through active and quiet play both indoors and outdoors as they explore, investigate, problem solve, imagine and become critical thinkers as they interact with the materials in the environment around them.
Kids' Campus Child Care Centre makes every effort to create a partnership with the parents to provide a responsive, high quality, accessible and intergraded program to support children as they develop.
