Denison Child Care was founded in 1994. Denison Child Care currently has facilities for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers at Dr. John M. Denison Secondary School. Programs for children from kindergarten to the age of 12 are located in the Poplar Bank, Glen Cedar, Terry Fox, and Phoebe Gilman Public Schools.
The centres are an integral part of the school and community. The program focuses on both the child and the family, recognizing the value, worth and dignity of each individual. It is our intention to provide quality care for the children through the use of trained, qualified staff who provide a warm and stimulating environment geared to each child's own interests, abilities, and needs. By developing competencies in working with their own and other children, our student parents will develop realistic expectations for children while earning credits toward their Secondary School Diploma.
Denison Child Care strives to provide a stimulating and nurturing inclusive environment that challenges and fosters a child's curiosity of the world and potential for learning by engaging him/her through child-directed activities. The program focuses on both the child and the family, recognizing the value, worth and dignity of each individual.
