with licensed facilities providing quality childcare since 1989.
Through the initial donation of our building, several grants, and incredible amounts of volunteer effort, we began operation at Halfmoon Bay Community School in January of 1989. Our society is governed by a volunteer board of directors and staffed by fun-loving and expert early childhood educators.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
At Halfmoon Bay Childcare Centre, it is our belief that every child is a unique individual, who develops at his or her own rate with individual needs that must be respected and met. We provide high quality care for children by offering a safe, creative, developmentally challenging, and nurturing environment, which will stimulate the physical, emotional, social and intellectual growth of each child.
We base our programming on the interests of the children and the teachers as we learn together, challenge our ideas and understanding about the world around us. We prioritize the development of relationships with strong social and interpersonal skills as we investigate natural and inventive materials. We encourage and nurture the development of social, emotional, intellectual and physical growth all the while keeping in mind that it is through play that children learn.
We believe in respect, inclusion, dignity and safety for all of the children, families and staff in our centre. We develop these beliefs through caring, meaningful relationships and open communication and support them with our policies.

We are a registered non-profit organization and rely on our community for financial help to keep our program running and thriving. Donations allow our centre to be the best that it can be for all the children to facilitate and enrich their learning experiences.
