About Delta Daycare Inc.
A Day Care Where Children Are Capable, Creative & Curious
At Delta Daycare Inc., we believe childhood is a time for discovery. Our environment is designed around the idea that children actively shape their learning through play, exploration, relationships, and everyday experiences.
We strive to create a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment where children feel valued and supported while developing confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.
Our Mission
Our mission is to nurture a community where children feel safe, loved, and inspired to explore their world. We foster curiosity, creativity, and confidence through play-based learning and developmentally appropriate practices.
Our educators work in partnership with families to honour each child's individuality and cultural background while promoting kindness, inclusion, and lifelong learning.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a child care environment where every child feels valued, supported, and empowered to grow into a compassionate, confident, and resilient individual.
We aim to celebrate diversity, encourage innovation, and build strong partnerships with families and the community.
Our Philosophy: Learning Through Play
Play is one of the most meaningful ways children explore the world. Through play, children experiment, make decisions, communicate, build relationships, and discover how things work.
Educators serve as co-learners and facilitators, providing opportunities for discovery, collaboration, and problem-solving while respecting each child's individual learning journey.
