Indoor EarlyON Centre programs 

Join us today! 

The EarlyON Child and Family Centre team is excited to reopen our program locations. Our programs and services are in alignment with provincial guidelines and local directives to promote a positive, meaningful, fun and safe indoor experience for our families and our team.

About Indoor Programs and Workshops 

  • Fun, free programs for parents/guardians/caregivers and their children (ages 0-6 years)
  • Drop-in Interactive Play and Learn program where families choose to interact with others and play with a wide variety of creative materials, toys, fine motor games, individual sensory materials, books, etc. is available according to the Centre’s schedule. See our newsletter for details.
  • Workshops: Adult educational sessions, children’s workshops and some special events require registration to ensure adequate resources can be provided. See our newsletter for details about this month’s special programs.
  • Capacity: Limits are determined for each session based on fire code, etc.
How to participate? 

Pre-registration is not required for drop-in interactive programs.

Detailed participant information is gathered on your first visit and then, for subsequent visits, a simplified sign-in process is in place.

Safety Measures 
  • Health screening: Participants are required to self-screen prior to attending the centre and stay home if unwell
  • Masks: Recommended but not required for participants (ages 2 yrs+) at our centres
  • Cleaning and disinfection: Toys and shared equipment are cleaned and disinfected according to our rigorous sanitary policies. Participants are asked to practice proper hand hygiene and appropriate respiratory etiquette while in attendance.
What our EarlyON professionals ensure:

Our early learning educators prepare the environment and learning centres with age appropriate materials that encourage curiosity, exploration, experimentation, social interaction, and learning through play. Our staff will facilitate activities for you and your child to enjoy together such as stories, music, movement activities, games, science experiments and more.
