Come take part in events happening at the Guelph Food Bank and Noah's Ark Childcare in Guelph, Ontario. We can best help children learn, not by deciding what we think they should learn and thinking of ingenious ways to teach it to them, but by making the world, as far as we can, accessible to them, paying serious attention to what they do, answering their questions - if they have any - and.
Services
Noah's Ark Childcare came about as a result of the staff at the Guelph Food Bank seeing a need in our community through budget counselling and an assistance survey of clients. Many people could return to work to a full-time position in the work force if they could find quality childcare. The shortage of placement spaces for quality care and the long waiting list for availability prompted us to meet a need.
Small children take comfort in our nurturing atmosphere. Parents feel more secure knowing security measures are in place and enforced every day. We have a keyless entry system and all doors are alarmed to sound when opening and closing. Parents must sign the child in and out each day. Plans are in place for dealing with emergencies.
Noah's Ark Childcare provides children with a safe friendly environment. The Centre is a place for children to develop socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually through a number of developmental activities. Our programming is designed to let children make choices, take responsibility, and learn how to make decisions that will further enhance their self-growth and self-worth.
Snacks and nutritious meals are included in the Pre-School, Toddler, and Infant programs. If the toddler or infant is still on formula, it must be supplied by the parent(s). Infants not on table food and not eating from NAC's rotational menu must have all food, drinks, and formula provided by the parent(s).
There is a waiting list for families to place there child's name on at no cost when there are no spaces available. There is a $30.00 non-refundable administration and enrolment fee for each child, payable upon enrolment. If you're interested in enroling your child in one of our programs please download the Enrolment form and submit it to Noah's Ark Childcare.
