Programs for Parents & Caregivers
(Newborn to 6 years)

Our programs for "grown-ups" offer information, advice, a chance to meet others and make friends, as well as, a break from the kids! The age group of the children that is covered in the course material is indicated beside the program name.

The following programs, offered during the day, may include childcare in our preschool and nursery rooms. Supervised by qualified staff, we provide a program for children two to five years, which offers free play, crafts and circle activities. A fully equipped nursery offers tender, loving care for infants and toddlers under two years of age.
