Our Programs
The Centre serves the Edmonton community and all children are welcome. We are proud of our ethnic diversity and are committed to being fully inclusive.
The daily programs at Lansdowne Child Care and Family Centre reflect the developmental needs and interests of all children. We strive to develop the social, emotional, physical and intellectual growth of all children. While the Centre provides group care, each child's individual needs are taken into consideration. The Centre's philosophy creates a "Learning Through Play" environment, developed around fine and gross motor activities, outdoor play, crafts, music, songs, stories, and loose parts.
The Child Care and Out of School Care programs vary according to the children's developmental levels. In both programs we enhance their educational experiences and growth through play.
We provide age-appropriate activities throughout the year. All educators participate in a weekly planning session to ensure the programming is current and stimulating for the children. We are currently following the "Flight", Alberta's Early Learning and Care Framework. www.flightframework.ca/
Parent - Teacher Visits are an integral part of our program which is an opportunity for families to connect one-on-one with and educator and to gain meaningful information as to how the child is progressing in the program. Child portfolios are shared with the family during the visit.
