Licensed Childcare

Childcare Centre

With funding from the Ministry of Children and Family Development and the Union of British Columbia Municipalities, renovations have been completed on the upper floor of the JDF Recreation Centre to create the new fully accessible JDF Childcare Centre. An outdoor playground for licensed care is the cherry on top of this beautiful community space.

The Childcare Centre has 24 full-time daycare, 30 preschool and 40 afterschool care spaces.

Philosophy

WSPR embraces a Move.Learn.Play-based philosophy in a new, fully-accessible Childcare Centre. Our Early Childhood Education certified leaders are trained in fundamental movement and physical literacy skills and facilitate inclusive, safe and enjoyable activities that encourage the children’s physical, emotional, intellectual, and social development.

The individuality of each child is respected and supported with the goal of fostering their creativity, confidence and a lifelong love of learning and movement. Children will have access to the vast amenities at WSPR including the natural outdoors, Indoor Sports Complex, arena, pool and special activities such as dance, language, arts, sports, science, yoga, and skating.
