FAMILY DAY CARE SERVICES

Family Day recognizes the importance of family and community in child development. As a family centred child care organization, we work to strengthen the relationships between children, their families and their communities. Family Day understands that culture, diversity, community and public policy affect child and family development. We support our families, and recognize and respect parents as being the most important caregivers for each child. Parents and staff are partners in caring for children.

The following eight key principles guide Family Day staff.

  • Each family has its own characteristics, strengths and resources.
  • All families have strengths.
  • Children and their families are part of a community.
  • Families have the most influence on their children.
  • Parents have interests, roles and responsibilities in addition to their family responsibilities.
  • There are many ways for a family to be involved with their child’s care.
  • Families and staff both have something to offer each other.
  • Staff have opportunities to develop family centred child care practices.
