Welcome to

Colchester Early Learning Centre

Play. Learn. Grow.

What makes us different

Play-Based Learning

Play-based learning provides an opportunity for all children to learn by doing, by exploring the world, and by interacting with peers and adults.

Meal Plans

Consistent with Canada’s Food Guide and also the manual for Food and Nutrition in regulated childcare settings while respecting the different needs (cultural and medical) of each child and family

After-School Program

For students enrolled in Harmony Heights Elementary & Valley Elementary – Pre-Primary to Grade 4. Children are picked up at each school in our van by a licensed driver

Community-Centred

We do community centred programming; we take trips to the library, Police & Fire Station tours, & local parks. We are fortunate to have a van we can take day trips in

Our Philosophy

The Colchester Early Learning Centre is an inclusive non-profit childcare centre providing care for children of all abilities, from ages 18 months to 11 years.

The Centre is governed by a Board of Directors and is committed to providing a positive, safe, nurturing, and caring environment that promotes the growth of each child in all areas of their development.

What Parents Think

We have had the absolute best experience with the centre! He’s been full-time since 18 months and I couldn’t ask for better people to take care of him when I can’t!

Everyone has always been so supportive and helpful through all of his milestones. Potty training, Separation struggles, helping a young very curious mind understand some very difficult concepts! Just to name a few.

Our time is coming to an end because we’re starting pre-primary, but I am wholeheartedly thankful for each, and every person that has had an impact in his development!
