Growing Up Dayhome & ELC

My first goal as an Early Child Educator is to create a welcoming learning environment for all of my children. Each child’s ideas and opinions are valued. Children build trust by staying with one primary caregiver over time, one person who's attuned to your child's temperament. We create a high quality-learning environment and build a thorough understanding of best practices for them to feel safe to express their feelings and learn to respect and listen to others. I'm a warm, accessible, enthusiastic and caring person.

Eating Well with Canada's Food Guide. Eating the recommended amount and type of food each day and limiting foods and beverages high in calories, fat, sugar or salt. My Children love everything that goes on in the kitchen and want to be part of it. Vegetables are more appealing when you do your own salad from tomatoes and lettuce planted in your own back yard - We grow it together! Smart Snacking-Young children especially benefit from snacks as they have small stomachs and may have trouble eating all of the foods they need at meal time.

Finding an excellent Early Learning Center is the foremost concern for every family. We are an accredited day home, that offers creative, joyful and educational age appropriate activities, reinforced by Alberta Frame Work, our exciting Frog Street Curriculum designed to optimize learning and development for our littles ones, and supported by The Creative Curriculum program to create responsive daily routines and meaningful learning experiences combined with children's interest as well. All materials are in English and Spanish.

My daughter loves it here. Nery is passionate about early learning and a dedicated caregiver. I wouldn’t ask for anything more.

My daughter comes home with beautiful artwork and new songs after every class and always eager to share with us the incredible stories of what they did at the dayhome. She always has a good time. I would recommend Nery’s dayhome to anyone with young children. I think it’s the best daymome in the area.

We’re so thrilled to have found Nery’s Dayhome for our daughter. Not only is it an incredibly supportive environment for working parents, with flexible options, but Nery is also so caring and patient with the children. We are happy with her.

One of the best decisions we ever made as parents was sending our daughter, Roberta to Growing Up Day Home. Nery’s Day Home is Wonderful, her happy environment and fabulous programs are the core ingredients, which make it such a top Day Home in Edmonton.
