ḡuláli Childcare Centre offers a play-based, child-centered program for ages 0-12 years old. At ḡuláli, we recognize that children learn best through play and exploration, when they are given a multitude of options; to engage, watch, listen, and try for themselves.
Our program and philosophy are based on the fundamentals of:
- Child Development: We acknowledge the children and their individual development needs and stages to provide the basis for daily programming, schedules, and curriculum.
- Early Childhood Education: As educators, we recognize that development and learning occur in 5 areas: physical, intellectual, language/communication, social, and emotional. We consider each child’s unique needs and learning styles to create an enjoyable and educational experience that is relevant, meaningful, and engaging.
- Image of the Child: We believe ensuring and encouraging the children have a positive self-image and strong sense of self-worth is a vital part of the learning process. A child needs to see themselves as capable, competent, and significant; knowing their existence is worthwhile. Therefore, we strive to ensure daycare is a place filled with respect, compassion, and positive reinforcement.
- Inclusion: Our program welcomes and encourages the participation of children and families of all backgrounds, abilities, and walks of life. We believe that children benefit greatly from a program where they can learn and interact in a diverse, non-judgmental environment that is free from discrimination.
OUR LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
Our environment promotes learning through play, allowing the children in our care to experience the world and learn in a way that best suits their unique learning styles. Activities are planned for large groups, small groups, and individuals, in an interactive and inclusive approach. We provide a space where children can freely explore, encouraging social skills and independence. We want our children and families to experience a warm and welcoming atmosphere, where they can feel safe and secure, and enjoy being there every day.
