The TYC Difference

Tender Years is a non-profit, co-operative centre providing superior education to children from 18 months to six years old. For over 35 years, through the consistent efforts of our dedicated parents and staff, we have earned a reputation for excellence in delivering an exceptional learning experience to our community’s youngest learners.

Our outstanding team of Registered Early Childhood Educators (RECEs) engage students through inspiring leadership and thoughtful planning. Each program encourages creative learning through fun indoor and outdoor activities including arts and crafts, music, song and dance, puzzles, dramatic play, sensory bins, and gross motor activities. We have two enclosed playground areas, one specifically designed and designated for our toddlers and a second for our preschool and kindergarten classes. Tender Years also has child-sized restroom facilities to help build confidence and independence. Our staff will work with you and your child on their potty-training journey. Select programs also offer two healthy snacks and a hot lunch catered by Yummy Catering. We are happy to accommodate certain dietary needs/restrictions in our allergy sensitive and nut-free environment.

Tender Years is committed to serving all learners, regardless of ability. We work closely with community agencies and families to ensure students with special needs are set up for success and have the greatest opportunity for growth and development. Please speak to the School Supervisor prior to registration so that we can ensure that your child’s needs are best understood and supported in the classroom environment.
