Welcome to our new Discovery Child Care Blog!

Hello Everyone! I'm Karen Eilersen, and I run Discovery Child Care in Barrie, Ontario and this is our new blog.

We're going to be posting and sharing a lot of useful information in our blog to promote our belief that Eco-Healthy Child Care is a wonderful way to encourage children to learn about nature at a very young age.

Research increasingly shows that the first years of a child’s life are critical to shaping their future health and development. By committing to the best practices of Eco-Healthy Child Care, we will help to improve the health of your children.

Our Mission

Our Mission is to provide high quality, educational programs where children learn through play. We are dedicated to creating nurturing, inviting and stimulating programs that will allow each child to develop to his or her fullest potential and at his or her own pace.

Our Vision

We envision inviting classrooms that will nurture a confident, positive self-identity for each child; where all children, regardless of ability, will have opportunities to learn, create & explore in a loving, safe, and challenging environment; to bring discovery into their lives each day they are here.

Environment

All Discovery Programs are committed to creating a healthy environment for the children in our care, their families, our staff, and our community.
