Pre-School Daycare at Trust Kids Child Care

Once children enter our preschool daycare program they are ready for any challenge that comes their way. Circle time is a big part of the day. It’s a time for the children and teachers to come together, say good morning, sing familiar songs and do some learning. (Please don’t tell them that, they’re having too much fun!). Children of this age are true inquirers. It’s the stage where you will hear the question why? 1000 times a day. They are ready to start finding the answers on their own, in fact they delight in taking ownership over the learning process. While working on inquiry skills, our preschoolers are also partaking in a “get ready for school” program. Through games, songs, stories and physical experiences children will learn numbers, letters, colours and shapes. Printing, early reading skills and numeracy are also explored. Our approach is to integrate these skills into all that we do, with mini lessons to introduce new skills as children are ready.

Children are eligible for our preschool program at approximately 30 months of age.

Trust Parent Preschool Testimonials

“Thank you so much for the excellent care that you have provided over these past two years. Trust is an exceptional establishment and we will be hard pressed to find its equal anywhere else. Over her time here, the care providers at Trust have treated her with love and respect, and have provided her with a first class early education. She has loved all of her teachers and built some strong relationships with these teachers and her classmates. I know that she will have great difficulty with the loss of all of you amazing people. We have had the utmost trust in all of her teachers and in the excellent administration. We have recommended Trust to any of our acquaintances in need of child care and will continue to do so… we will miss you, thank you again.”

“In the last two plus years you and all the staff at Trust have become such a integral part in our family’s life. Watching [my child] grow and develop and never having to question that he received high-calibre care has always been paramount to us, and especially being first time parents. We were so fortunate to have had experienced this time in our lives with you – thank you.”

Trust Child Care Parent

“We would like to sincerely thank you for the extraordinary care you have provided to our daughter over the past 2.5 years… We would not have asked for anything more in a care centre for our daughter. Trust provided a caring home away from home where she learned an incredible amount, had a ton of fun, built her confidence and forged wonderful friendships with her classmates and teachers. It is evident that the positive environment she has been exposed to has had an incredible influence on the little person she has become. Trust will always hold a very special place in our hearts.”
