Philosophy
KIDS Care school age programs provide a safe place where children are cared for with warmth and compassion assuring that each child is supported to be the best they can be. We will always represent ourselves as honest role models and embrace a positive approach through all our activities.
Program Goals
• To provide all children in our care with an environment that is safe, one in which they feel supported, cared for and most of all, a place they can have fun.
• To increase the physical fitness and self awareness in all children.
• To strengthen the interpersonal and social skills of all children.
• To foster an appreciation for diversity.
• To complement and integrate the children’s experiences through programming.
