Philosophy

The philosophy of the Centre is to provide a quality childcare Centre that meets the changing needs of the community, while following the rules and regulations that are being implemented for Day Care Standards of Manitoba.

Our rich curriculum provides many opportunities to encourage children to develop creativity, self-confidence, and a positive self-image, while also having the opportunity to solve problems, make choices, and become independent.

 

Our goal is to help develop caring, capable, and confident children by instilling in them a sense of self, a sense of wonder, and an understanding of functioning within a group. To do this we must give the children a chance to grow, to try, to succeed or miss and try again. We want the children to develop skills that will assist them with their day to day choices, empower them to make proper choices, and have a happy and healthy life!

We believe that each child is a unique individual and that children learn most through their natural curiosity. All children are entitled to full participation and support to meet their individual needs. At St. Adolphe Child Care Centre Inc., we believe that all children have the right to be valued, accepted, and included. We value openness, honesty, tolerance, fairness, and responsibility in social, moral, and academic matters.

​

Our program supports the full inclusion of children who require additional support because of physical, cognitive, social, or emotional needs. Where additional staffing is required to help include children with unrecognized abilities into the program, it will always be utilized according to the goals of inclusion. We will work cooperatively with any therapist identified by the family (example: speech, language, child development, or physiotherapy).

​

Staff are trained in child development and encourage children to develop to their fullest potential. They provide activities in response to the diverse needs and abilities within the community we serve. We strive to provide a safe, caring, learning environment for children, staff, and families.
