Our Program Statement
At GBCCC, we believe children are competent, capable, and rich in potential. We know that children learn best in a program where they are safe, encouraged to explore, build strong relationships, and are free to make mistakes.
Children are provided daily opportunities to learn and grow through positive and responsive interactions between educators, peers, parents, and the community. We encourage children to communicate in positive ways with one another. Staff promote the health, safety, nutrition, and well-being of each child by providing a clean and safe environment, nutrition based on Canada’s Food Guide, access to drinking water throughout the day, limited transitions, eliminating any environmental issues that may cause undue stress to a child, unnecessary disruptions to play and reducing hazards that may cause injury. All staff familiarize themselves with all information concerning any medical conditions, exceptionalities, allergies, food restrictions, medication requirements, and parental preferences with respect to diet, exercise, and rest time.
We support positive and responsive interactions among children, parents, and childcare providers. This will be accomplished by ensuring staff is qualified, responsive, and well trained; understanding the role of families as primary caregivers and the needs of each child as an individual.
All staff will foster children’s exploration, play, and inquiry by providing a variety of activities, both indoors and outdoors in an environment rich in content that encourages choices and active play, supported by qualified, attentive, and interactive educators. All staff will provide the experiences; support and encouragement that help children learn to self-regulate – a crucial component of quality care.
