Our Programs
At First Place Early Learning Centre, we provide licensed early learning and child care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in safe, welcoming environments. Our programs are designed to support children's growth, learning and well-being at every stage.
Infant Program
Our Infant Program welcomes children from birth to 18 months in a warm and nurturing environment where educators respond to each child's individual routines, needs, and development. Through responsive relationships, sensory exploration, and everyday interactions, infants are supported as they build secure attachments, explore their surroundings, and develop a growing sense of trust and belonging.
